shadowstrike: I must not have read the same description of the religion that y’all did, because the one that I read stated their belief that Jews and Christians were of the Devil, and needed to be wiped out.

Shadowstrike -- you're mixing up Zoroastrianism with Islam. Zoroastrianism is the religion of Cyrus the Great, the guy who, after conquering Babylon, allowed the Jews to go back home and funded rebuilding the temple.

odds and I have family who were Zoroastrian, we didn't just google up some random traces. And FARS is irani-american

You have made a mistake -- Zoroastrianism was the religion of the Magi who came to Jesus and it was earlier religion of Iran that was nearly eliminated when Islam came

no, I din’t confuse Islam for Zoroastrianism.

And, I didn’t just use Google. There are still things called Libraries. I actually read a book, and if I can get back there anytime soon I’ll give you the title and author of it.

If I’ve been misled, then I apologize.
