...the Zoroastrian core belief of “Good Thoughts, Good Words, Good Deeds”...

This is far better than Islam.

Wasn't this also the major religion of Persia (Iran) before the Muslim took over (by the sword)?

Good sized Zoroastrian community around Mumbai (Bombay) in India. They call them Parsis (Parsi like Farsi - Persians).

They practice Sky Burial - leaving their dead out (in a walled enclosure on high ground) to be eaten by vultures.

Does driving a Mazda constitute honor or sacrilege to Zoroastrians?

Nothing says death cult like one of the major pagan sources for Mohammad’s ideologies.

My, aren’t we an intolerant society.

Another reminder that America remains a sanctuary for people whose faith is oppressed elsewhere. The situation here is similar to that of the Bahai.

Wonder if they will eventually name it after the most famous Zoroastrian in the world: Freddie Mercury
