...turn the following into an expansionist, difficult to live next door to creed:

The independent search after truth, unfettered by superstition or tradition; the enforced oneness of the entire human race, the pivotal principle and fundamental doctrine of the Faith; the basic unity of all religions and suppression of those which reject these principles; the condemnation and removal of all forms of prejudice, whether religious, racial, class or national; the harmony which must be required between religion and science; the enforced equality of men and women, the two wings on which the bird of humankind is able to soar; compulsory education; the required adoption of a universal auxiliary language; the enforced abolition of the extremes of wealth and poverty; the institution of a world tribunal for the adjudication of disputes between nations and the establishment of a body to enforce its decisions; the exaltation of work, performed in the spirit of service, to the rank of worship [and thus compulsory]; the glorification of justice as the ruling principle in human society, and of true religion as a bulwark for the protection of all peoples and nations; and the establishment of a permanent and universal peace by force when necessary ....

How's that? - aside from being the opposite of the spirit of Baha'i as I've heard or encountered it.
