Just before publishing the next abstract trying to start make this blog living...a question :
is there anyone out there reading and thinking about commenting one day? ;-)

Abstract of the lecture given by Prof. Brian Lepard
To continue the discussion on the topics that were adressed at the conference
Baha'u'llah taught, nearly one hundred and fifty years ago, that by agreement of the leaders of the world, an "equal standard of human rights must be recognized and adopted."
In 1948, the UN Declaration of Human Rights purported to establish such a global standard, but on the basis of secular principles. The presentation explored and articulated a Baha'i perspective on necessary legal safeguards of human rights, examining the revolutionizing character of Baha'u'llah's teachings on human rights and how they can help reform and vitalize the emerging international law of human rights anchored in the Universal Declaration.

Keep it up Daniel!! Thanks for all the feedback and column entries. Somehow I think others have either not caught on or are on the edge waiting to blog on. Lets keep the hope up and maybe this week write an article or two.
Seems we're just both of us writing and commenting what we wrote...
How could we possibly really motivate people just on the edge?
Personally i do not have enough time to write myself something interesting for some times, that's why i took the idea to post the abstracts to try to start a discussion...
Obviously not very successfull...
Thanks to both Daniel and Nishat for keeping this blog up. I may have something to add soon. This is the first blog I've ever participated in!
