Here is an exerpt;

Basic teachings and Beliefs of Baha'i: Baha'is are monotheists who believe that all religions come from God, that all human beings are equal, and that any form of predjudice is immoral and destructive. They stress the importance of education, a world government, and the reconciliation of religion and science. Baha'is believe God is good and that all are destined for an afterlife, and that all human suffering is caused by our own actions. Baha'is believe there have been numerous manifestations (not incarnations) of God on earth, including Krishna, Buddha, Christ, Mohammed, and of course, Baha'u'llah.

The Baha'i Faith is the most recent revelation of the One True God, stressing the Unity of God, the Oneness of Religion and the Oneness of Mankind. Baha'u'llah, its Founder, has revaeled more than one hundred Holy Books to guide mankind to the Most Great Peace for a Cycle lasted for no less than 5000 centuries. The Encyclopedia Britannica stated that it is the most widespread religion on earth after Christianity.
Following are the Basic Teachings of Bahá'u'lláh:

Bahá'u'lláh taught that there is one God whose successive revelations of His will to humanity have been the chief civilizing force in history. The agents of this process have been the Divine Messengers whom people have seen chiefly as the founders of separate religious systems but whose common purpose has been to bring the human race to spiritual and moral maturity.
Humanity is now coming of age. It is this that makes possible the unification of the human family and the building of a peaceful, global society. Among the principles which the Bahá'í Faith promotes as vital to the achievement of this goal are
•the abandonment of all forms of prejudice
•assurance to women of full equality of opportunity with men
•recognition of the unity and relativity of religious truth
•the elimination of extremes of poverty and wealth
•the realization of universal education
•the responsibility of each person to independently search for truth
•the establishment of a global commonwealth of nations
•recognition that true religion is in harmony with reason and the pursuit of scientific knowledge
