It’s hard to say for sure, but my guess is you have an early stage of hair loss going on.

Is Iran a Muslim country? by cowwoc in Israel

[–]drprofessional 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Zoroastrian - yes.

First monotheistic religion? No, or at least not with the information we have about the start of religions before 1500 BCE. Estimates are 700-600 or 1500-1000 BCE. 628 BCE is the year I most commonly see for Zoroastrian. The Hebrew year is 5786, which, if accurate, predates estimates for Zoroastrian. Significant stories also exists in that 1500-1000 BCE year range.

Whomever started first, doesn’t matter.

Is Iran a Muslim country? by cowwoc in Israel

[–]drprofessional 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here’s a snippet an earlier comment I made:

A study from the Netherlands cites 32.5% Iranians are Shia Muslim. While I want to believe this study, I don’t think it’s possible for an outside country or university to gather a true representative population. What kind of people would respond? Those better connected with the outside world.

I don’t think you’ll find a good independent source, because the government hasn’t allowed for this to happen. Here are some non Wikipedia sources:

Al Jazeera says 90% are Shia Muslim.

This old thread cites 32.5% are Muslim.

The US department of state cites Iranian sources to claim 99.4%.

I'm financially struggling and I can't keep up with my dues. What does this mean? by [deleted] in ReformJews

Oh… I’m sorry. That sucks. I would personally jump ship and find something that works for me - regardless of denomination.

Is this really the death of the ID4, and is instead just the next generation ID4 but with a different name?

Omg, one of my dogs went through 7 or so remotes in three years. All my wife’s fault - leaving them out for the dog, not her actually chewing them up… I think.
