Zoroastrianism is on the way out because it refuses to accept converts. One has to be born into the faith to believe in it. In contrast, every other religion welcomes those from outside to propagate and spread the faith.

?....Are not the 'converts' to Bahai.....considered.....Zoroastrian?

I think they're muslims but with mohammed replaced with a Persian guy. Arabs would never tolerate that because to them mohammed was the greatest and last prophet even though he was a murdering madman and pedophile. To add in another non-Arab prophet after him would really put them into a rage.

Bahai's believe in universal religion. They accept all religions as one and the same. The founder was actually originally Muslim and had visions during the 1800's.

People turned to it mainly b/c Zoroastrians don't accept converts and never have pursued it. Unfortunate..

Bahaiism is the worst form of Islam
