==Baháʼí Faith== {{Main|Baháʼí Faith and the unity of religion}} [[Bahá'u'lláh]], founder of [[Baháʼí Faith]], a religion that developed in Persia, having roots in Islam,<ref>{{Cite web |title=Religions – Bahai: Origins of Bahá'í history |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/bahai/history/origins_1.shtml |access-date=2020-11-04 |publisher=BBC |language=en-GB}}</ref> urged the elimination of religious intolerance. He taught that God is one, and religion has been progressively revealed over time through [[Manifestation of God (Baháʼí Faith)|Manifestations of God]], the founders of religion. Bahá'u'lláh taught that Baháʼís must associate with peoples of all religions, whether this is reciprocated or not. Baháʼís refer to this concept as [[Progressive revelation (Baháʼí)|Progressive revelation]], meaning that each religion brings a more advanced understanding of divinity and updated social laws as mankind matures. In this view, God's word is revealed through a series of messengers: [[Abraham]], [[Krishna]], [[Moses]], [[Gautama Buddha|Buddha]], [[Jesus]], [[Muhammad]], [[Báb]] and Bahá'u'lláh (the founder of the [[Baháʼí Faith]]) among them. According to Baháʼí writings, there will not be another messenger for many hundreds of years.{{Citation needed|date=November 2020}} There is also a respect for the religious traditions of the native peoples of the planet who may have little other than oral traditions as a record of their religious figures.<ref>{{cite web |title=Celebrating Native Cultures Through Words: Storytelling and Oral Traditions |url=https://americanindian.si.edu/nk360/informational/storytelling-and-oral-traditions |publisher=Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian |access-date=2025-04-06}}</ref>
