The Baha'i Faith is the youngest of the world’s independent monotheistic religions. Founded in Iran in 1844, it now has more than 5 million adherents in 236 countries and territories. Baha'is come from nearly every national, ethnic and religious background, making the Baha'i Faith the second-most widespread religion in the world.
Baha'is view all the world's major religions as a part of a single, progressive process through which God reveals His will to humanity. The Founder of the Baha'i Faith, Baha'u'llah (1817-1892), is recognized as the most recent in a line of Divine Messengers that stretches back beyond recorded time and includes Abraham, Moses, Buddha, Zoroaster, Christ and Muhammad. The central theme of Baha'u'llah's message is that humanity is one single race and that the day has come for humanity’s unification into one global society. While reaffirming the core ethical principles common to all religions, Baha'u'llah also revealed new laws and teachings to lay the foundations of a global civilization. “A new life,” Baha'u'llah declares, “is, in this age, stirring within all the peoples of the earth.”
The worldwide Baha'i community, composed of people from virtually every racial, ethnic and religious background, is working to give practical expression to Baha'u'llah’s vision of world unity. We invite you to learn more about the Baha'i Faith and benefit from the spirtual and practical insights found in the Revelation of Baha'u'llah, God's message for humanity in this day.

Well Bahai faith is that all are equal, race does not matter, if you study bahai you will know that reaching enlightenment requires all sacrifice of your own selfish desires. Bahai faith was based upon a man whom was a Prince whom dispersed all his wealth to the poor. He himself was cast out of his own country into poverty.. He preached against most preachers of the day. So did Christ if you think about it. This person was cast into a prison and lived with murders, and thief's he lived as one of them. Just for doing good to man??? Well he would not look kindly upon those whom use his name for personal gain. Cause this was against his basic teaching. Same as Christs!!!!

Just another God believer Religion:
The Faith’s Founder was Bahá’u’lláh, a Persian nobleman from Tehran who, in the mid-nineteenth century, left a life of princely comfort and security and, in the face of intense persecution and deprivation, brought to humanity a stirring new message of peace and unity.
Bahá’u’lláh claimed to be nothing less than a new and independent Messenger from God. His life, work, and influence parallel that of Abraham, Krishna, Moses, Zoroaster, Buddha, Christ, and Muhammad. Bahá’Ãs view Bahá’u’lláh as the most recent in this succession of divine Messengers.
Fundamental to Bahá'à teachings are the principles of the oneness of God, the oneness of religion, and the oneness of humanity. These principles have a profound impact on the theological and social teachings of this religion.
Strangely they use some pointers from Buddhism which is an atheistic faith.

It has been derived (or may be deprived) from Islam but other muslims especially shiites and sonnys believe that they are not muslims and do their best to limit them and prevent them from presenting their religion.
