    Are You A Convert To Your Religion?

    Can I ask if you held any beliefs before then? If so, what were they? =)

    Are You A Convert To Your Religion?

    I am (for those who don't know). =) I've been a Christian all my life, but it never really fit me right... There's good aspects, but there are some irreconcilable differences that I have with it as well. I wish I'd have learned about Zoroastrianism sooner!.. It would have saved me a lot of time...

    Ask Us About Zoroastrianism

    I will speak for myself only, as I'm still learning, and I don't want to presume that I speak for all Zoroastrians. XD As for you question, I suppose I do, but I would describe this "evolution" as a progression of our state of mind/thought process (Spenta Mainyu - literally, progressive...

    New to community and Hindu for 7 months

    Just popping in to say Ushta, and welcome! =) From what I understand, Hinduism has many different schools of thought. Is there any specific kind(s) that you feel drawn to?

    Cause of antisemitism

    You have to remember that the loss of the first world war was still fresh on the minds of the German people. They were looking for someone to blame, and Hitler gave them someone... What makes it so scary, is that this scenario could still happen in the west even today. If not with Jews, then...

    Cause of antisemitism

    Ah. I could be wrong in those regards. =)

    Cause of antisemitism

    Hmmm... Honestly, I couldn't tell you the main "cause" of antisemitism off the top of my head; it's roots run deep, and have been that way for a very long time. I'm sure you can find some answers with a little research in those regards. =) As for the holocaust itself, it wasn't an isolated...

    Instrumental Music Only.

    I also love ancient middle/near eastern style music... Here's a song from one of my favorite soundtracks (the one you provided reminds me of it). =)

    Instrumental Music Only.

    Brilliant... I absolutely love masterfully played guitar. Here's one of my favorite artists... Here's a more technical song he does. Pay close attention at 2:10 when he counter harmonizes with himself (and note how he plays with only 9 fingers). XD Watching him play (as someone who plays a...

    Hey there! I've been reading a new translation of the Gathas, and in the introduction it states that the Avestan language's sentence structures and grammar indicate that it is older than Sanskrit... Have you heard anything about that? I'm not sure I believe that. =/

    Hah! Very cool. =) I'm actually planning on making myself a fire bowl (ethanol) for prayers some time in the near future. XD

    Would You Expect a Technologically Advanced Alien Species to have an Intelligence Similar to Ours?

    Though I imagine that their understandings of things such as mathematics would be advanced, it'd be faulty to assume that they would process information or draw conclusions the same way we would. Don't forget... Mathematical processes are hardly set in stone, and there are sometimes many ways to...

    What are the Main Reasons Someone Would Reject Your Religion?

    Extremely small community, so people who practice generally do so to themselves. There is a lot of misleading information out there about the religion, and Parsi beliefs are generally (and falsely) attributed to the religion as a whole. As a Gathic Zoroastrian, there aren't a lot of rigid...

    Confused and feel guilty

    Can I ask what hobbies you enjoy, @Leo613? =)

    Ask Rival Stuff

    What were your favorite and least favorite things about Florida when you came to visit the U.S.? =) (BTW, I'm loving all these Zoroastrian questions people are asking) XD

    Is it not a greater sign than raising one from dead?

    Let me tell you something, @paarsurrey... I appreciate your faithfulness and your respectfulness, even if I don't agree with your beliefs. =)
