Addendum to point of order
Created | Updated May 23, 2004
Iraq used to be Babylon. If you tell a Persian that he is Iraqi, or an Iraqi that he is Persian, you'll get quiet an arguement. Iraqi's are semetic in origin, Persians are Arian in origin. There is a distinct difference in Persian and Arab. Zorothustra was spread to what is modern day Iraq, but he was Persian. And if your founding arguement is that the concept of modern Evil came from Z, then you must then champion the ideology that there is a spiritual entity responsible for evil upon the earth. And even with all of this, Zorothustrians are still considered a fringe element in Iranian society, tolerated but not accepted, as he is not reconcilable with Islam.
