[Sorry; lost the attrribution here.]
A couple of points here. First, Zoroastrianism is an extremely ancient
and unique variety of monotheism. The faith is shrinking because they do
not prosyletize, marry for love (rather than by arrangement) and do not
recognize inter-marriage. And everybody wants to marry one because they
are rich and well-educated. How well-educated? 80% have college degrees
here in the US.
"Zoroastrianism is" also the answer to the bizarre trivia question "what
do Zubin Mehta and Freddy Mercury have in common".
