America as Spiritual Emissary...

[Alexander M Zoltai]

I try to be as aware as possible of trends in the world, somewhat because of the book I'm writing but also because I'm a curious fellow...

I've previously sent you a link to the Real News Network because, of all the alternative news sources I've perused, it seems most balanced.

I leave you two links to a particular man's discussion of what seem imminent changes in the structure of American government because of what Shoghí Effendí has said about America's spiritual destiny...

Shoghí Effendí's statement of changes in the structure of America's government:

"The American nation, of which the community of the Most Great Name forms as yet a negligible and infinitesimal part, stands, indeed, from whichever angle one observes its immediate fortunes, in grave peril. The woes and tribulations which threaten it are partly avoidable, but mostly inevitable and God-sent, for by reason of them a government and people clinging tenaciously to the obsolescent doctrine of absolute sovereignty and upholding a political system, manifestly at variance with the needs of a world already contracted into a neighborhood and crying out for unity, will find itself purged of its anachronistic conceptions, and prepared to play a preponderating role, as foretold by 'Abdu'l-Bahá, in the hoisting of the standard of the Lesser Peace, in the unification of mankind, and in the establishment of a world federal government on this planet. These same fiery tribulations will not only firmly weld the American nation to its sister nations in both hemispheres, but will through their cleansing effect, purge it thoroughly of the accumulated dross which ingrained racial prejudice, rampant materialism, widespread ungodliness and moral laxity have combined, in the course of successive generations, to produce, and which have prevented her thus far from assuming the role of world spiritual leadership forecast by 'Abdu'l-Bahá's unerring pen -- a role which she is bound to fulfill through travail and sorrow."

(Shoghi Effendi, Citadel of Faith, p. 126)
