Publisher Description: Accepting converts, and even the children of women marrying outside the community, has become a subject of bitter controversy for well over a century among the Parsi Zoroastrians in India. In this greatly expanded edition of his 1985 book on the subject, Dr. Antia reexamines this issue, which is crucial to the continued survival of one of the most ancient religions, the Zoroastrian religion. He addresses responses which vehemently denounced his views in his original publication, in the hope it will enable the readers to find the truth for themselves, and hopefully ensure the survival of Zoroastrianism in the world, by heeding the precepts of the prophet. Also included is an appendix on the status of women in Zoroastrianism. |
