    Do you believe in God?

    You are 100 percent correct. The conflict between the Sassanian and Byzantine religions was how they perceived evil and how they interpreted each other's perceptions of evil and God's relation to it. Applying the philosophy of one religion to the doctrine of another often leads to such...

    Aspergers and Religion

    I follow a long defunct branch of Zoroastrianism called Zurvanism, which was the state religion under the Sassanian Persian empire. In Zurvanism, Ahura Mazda who is the good God, and Angra Mainyu, who is the evil spirit both emerge from Zurvan, the personification of time and fate. This is...

    Do you believe in God?

    Yes, but my definition of God is quite different than most. It is basically Zurvanite Zoroastrianism, the form of Zoroastrianism that was the state religion of the Sassanian Empire. (the last Persian empire before the conquest of Persia by the Arabs) It is more philosophical in nature. I'll try...

    Aspies: What Upsets You?

    Social dishonesty and insincerity, for the simple reason that I struggle to differentiate when people are just "being nice" and actually want a friendship (or relationship) Some may not regard "being nice" as social dishonesty, but I do. Here's why. When people feign interest in something or...

    New member!

    Hi, I made this account on a whim. I'm 18, and have been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome for about three years now, though my family suspected I had it long before. Anyway, Hi everyone and I hope that there are people here who I can talk to, since I've been rather lonely for some time.
