Great article with interesting comparison...Hi Dano,<br />Great article with interesting comparisons. I knew that the egg dyeing and norooz was the origin of easter but I didn't know the origin of norooz. Now I need to study Zoroastrianism to see the relevance :)<br /><br />But there is one thing in your review that I must object. "..and three major religious holidays: NoRuz, Easter and Passover." Norroz is not a religious holiday. It is predating islam and they know it so they neither mention the origin but nor do they directly relate it to islam. It is just a tradition that like all other things have been sprinkled with some religous additive features. If you don't mention allah and muhammad in special events, it would make you look like you're doing a pagan thing which would be a terrible thing in Iran especially. But other than that, even Persians admit that it is pre-islamic culture. The only thing they dont mention or accept is that it is a pagan thing.Semrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10550664662991598958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1269296454000145509.post-23528442631108933252012-04-03T16:51:04.101-07:002012-04-03T16:51:04.101-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Timothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11339489291295856811noreply@blogger.com
