>>1) Are they proposing a world currency - similar to the Euro, but at a larger scale? If yes, I don't see any problem with that. This was proposed more than 100 years ago by Bahá'u'lláh - and I am quite sure it will happen, sooner or later. One of several step that will help towards the unification of mankind.
