2002 Ridván 200-	The Universal House of Justice issued a letter addressed to the world's religious leaders warning of "the danger posed by "the rising fires of religious prejudice" and called for decisive action against fanaticism and intolerance". [One Country Vol.14 Issue 1] For the text of the letter see To the World's Religious Leaders. Also see One Country Vol.14 Issue 1 for an abridged version. See also BWNS200; BWNS168, BWNS200; BW'02-'03pg79-98. The essential message was that God is one and all religions are from that same God and that recognition of these truths is a prerequisite that must be at the heart of all religious discourse. Bahá'i institutions throughout the world delivered thousands of copies of this message to influential figures and the major faith communities. Although some were dismissed out of hand, in general the message was warmly welcomed.
