Since we're doing comparative religions, I love to share the story of how the Seventh Day Adventists got their start. It was called "The Great Disappointment". People who were too stupid to see through the hoax became the founders of the Adventists:

And interestingly, there is a link to Bab in this folly as well.

My driver told me today that Zoroastrianism is the religion practiced by the original inhabitants of Persia. Perhaps the very first Aryans that arrived here. Islam was imposed on them by invaders.

There's still some practicants of it and they look more like the Europeans. There are Christians (passed a church today) and Jewish and Ortodox Chritians as well.

Look like a lot of people was pushed from behind by soem invaders and ended up here in waves. The Mongols were here too.
