The university training which you are receiving at present will be of immense
help to you in your efforts to present the Message in intellectual circles.
In these days when people are so sceptical about religion and look with so much
contempt towards religious organizations and movements, there seems to be more
need than ever for our young Bahá’ís to be well equipped intellectually, so
that they may be in a position to present the Message in a befitting way, and
in a manner that would convince every unbiased observer of the effectiveness
and power of the Teachings.
(5 May 1934 to an individual believer) [32]
