OMG, the tribes, the nations, the castes and so on - to mention but one huge country. There can be but one cure and this professor Dasgupta possesses the wisdom to direct his students so that they may work it out for themselves with the help of his colleagues - for those with minds to know. <br /><br />Consider, pray, the advice and guidance of one humanitarian, a recipient of the most glorious order of the British empire in 1920; no mean feat this that English men their titles bestow upon an Asian, I think you will agree:<br /><br />"In order to facilitate complete understanding between all people, a universal auxiliary language will be adopted and in the schools of the future two languages will be taught — the mother tongue and this international auxiliary tongue which will be either one of the existing languages, or a new language made up of words from all the languages — the matter to be determined by a confederation met for the purpose which shall represent all tribes and nations. This international tongue will be used in the work of the parliament of man — a supreme tribunal of the world which will be permanently established in order to arbitrate international questions. The members of this arbitral court of justice will be representatives of all the countries. It is incumbent upon the nations to obey the commands of this tribunal, for such a tribunal will be under the power of God and for the protection of all men. In all the sacred books where do you find such a statement?"<br /><br />Sir Abdu'l-Baha Abbas, KBE, knighted in Palestine for services fighting famine during WW1 Paul Desaillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14750990530420749641noreply@blogger.com
