Oneness of Humanity

The Oneness of Humanity was exaggerated to such an extent by `Abdu’l-Bahā that he even gave orders to be kind to tyrants, oppressors, and traitors:

We will only show two samples here that clearly speak for themselves. Pay attention to the words and complements that Bahā’u’llāh uses to describe the poor soul called Ḥusayn in this quote:

On one hand it is claimed that
He created everyone the same and gives all sustenance, nurtures all, protects all, and is kind to all. He has put no differences in any grace or mercy.

In one his Paris sermons, `Abdu’l-Bahā expresses anger over the fact that in France the drowning of twenty French people in a river has caused a great deal of controversy, while a blind eye is turned to the thousands of non-French killed elsewhere

After all the preaching for the Oneness of Humanity, why have the Baha’is created a new calendar and created further divisions in a world they are apparently trying to unite?

One would think there is no punishment harsher than being banished or excommunicated. There is even a harsher punishment in Baha’i law. One who has been banished or excommunicated can simply leave the Baha’i community and start a new life elsewhere.

In Baha’ism, a very harsh and tormenting punishment exists for those Baha’is that act against the decrees and teachings or orders of the Universal House of Justice. These individuals are labeled as covenant breakers. Their punishment is referred to as ṭard, meaning excommunication, shunning, or banishment. All of Bahā’u’llāh’s descendants have been shunned by Shoghi and `Abdu’l-Bahā and not a single Baha’i exists today that is related by blood to Bahā’u’llāh.
`Abdu’l-Bahā gave the following order

When the matter of the leadership of the Bābīs was brought forth, Bahā’u’llāh labeled his brother—Mīrzā Yaḥyā Ṣubḥ Azal, who according to the will of the Bab, was his successor—with all kinds of profanities. He revealed all the inner secrets between them and tried his best to ruin his reputation. He even went so far as calling him, and all the rest of his deniers, donkeys, cows, and dung beetles

There exist a wealth of strange and dramatic stories in Baha’i literature that display a loving and caring Bahā’u’llāh who does not even prevent his enemies from physically abusing him. Here is one example:

In one of his memories `Abdu’l-Bahā recalls:
When Djemal Pasha . . . reached Acre and asked to see me, I mounted a donkey and headed for his home. As soon as he saw me, he greeted me and sat me next to himself and without hesitation said, “You are a corrupter of religion and that is why the government of Iran exiled you here . . .” I thought to myself that he is a Turk and I must give him a ridiculous and silencing answer.
