Only when all mankind is united under one same cause, that cause can become an acomplished mission, because, as Shoghi Effendi stated so many times we are now living in an era of intercontinental connection: nothing belongs anymore only to the clan or the nation, but to the entire body of the world. And I believe that the Blog Action Day was successfull in implanting this idea in the hearts of, at least, 16 thousand people all over the world: unity in diversity for one cause!

I think the phrase 'unity in diversity' is key, and I also very much like the first quote from Shoghi Effendi. Barney, this is exactly what we need to be considering.
