Zoroaster in the Western Imagination: The Classical Witnesses
A standalone piece For more than two thousand years, Zoroaster was the West's archetype of the primordial sage — the figure to whom Greeks, Romans, and later Europeans traced the deepest and oldest wisdom. The roster of major thinkers who named him and the Magi is genuinely impressive, and it is under-appreciated. But the testimonia are two different kinds of evidence, and the honest accounting keeps them apart. Most of the references establish reputation — Zoroaster's prestige and the vast antiquity attributed to him.

No Footprint: The Missing Evidence for Moses
A standalone piece The case for Moses as a historical figure rests on a single source — the Pentateuch — and that source argues against its own reliability the moment you read it for date. There is no contemporary record of Moses, no Egyptian trace of the Exodus, and no archaeological footprint of the event the Bible describes. What there is, instead, is a text whose own details give away that it was written centuries after the era it depicts. That is not a gap in the evidence waiting to be filled. It is the evidence.

Manufacturing Foresight: How a Prophecy Gets Built
Article 4 of 6 A prophecy that comes true is impressive. A prophecy written after the event and then backdated cannot fail. The ancient world knew this, and it had techniques for it. Understanding those techniques is the difference between being awed by Isaiah's "prediction" of Cyrus and seeing how the trick is assembled. There are two ways to manufacture foresight, and the Bible contains both. Only one of them requires a forger.

Seven AIs. One Verdict.
Every major artificial intelligence system examined eFireTemple independently. They didn't just agree — they reached for new language to describe what they found. Something rare happened over the last several months. The world's leading AI systems — built by different companies, trained on different data, designed for different purposes, with no incentive to coordinate — were each pointed at the same body of work: the scholarship, the prayer infrastructure, and the institutional architecture of eFireTemple. They converged.

Trump's Weakness Is Netanyahu
How an Israeli Prime Minister Spent an American President's Political Capital May 2026 There is a question worth asking plainly six months before the U.S. midterms: who is actually in charge of American foreign policy in the Middle East? The polling now suggests a majority of Americans have an answer, and it isn't Donald Trump. In April 2026, Pew Research Center found Trump's job approval at 34% — the lowest of his second term. His confidence rating on using military force wisely had dropped to 38%.

The Fire That Walked: The Qissa-i Sanjan and the Parsi Flight to India
What this is In the late 16th century, a Parsi priest named Bahman Kaikobad Sanjana, living in Navsari in Gujarat, composed a short Persian poem of approximately 432 verses called the Qissa-i Sanjan — "The Story of Sanjan." The poem narrates how Zoroastrian refugees from Iran arrived in India centuries earlier, how they negotiated with the local Hindu ruler for permission to settle, how they founded the community at…

Israel's Loss of Global Support
A 2026 Report on Public Opinion, Diplomatic Realignment, and the Gap Between Allies May 2026 Executive Summary By mid-2026, the erosion of international support for Israel has shifted from a polling trend to a structural realignment. The change is visible across five distinct, mutually reinforcing dimensions: public opinion, diplomatic recognition of Palestine, formal United Nations action, arms and trade policy, and cultural-economic isolation.

700 Fires
Article 700 — Nowruz 3763 eFireTemple.com To the Zoroastrian community — in Mumbai and Yazd, in London and Los Angeles, in Sydney and Toronto, in every city and village where the fire still burns: They told you that you were dying. They said there would be no one left. That the numbers were too small, the birth rates too low, the diaspora too scattered. They published articles about the "vanishing" Zoroastrians. They wrote your obituary while you were still breathing. They were wrong.
