My ongoing journey since I had an operation to remove a painful neuroma. Ever since the pain is gone I have had greatly reduced autistic traits. I believe that the pain was causing inflammation in my whole body but also in my brain which significantly affected my emotional processing abilities.

Article: Smoldering Blame, By Jake Armstrong 09/10/2009
"Earlier this year, the South Coast Air Quality Management District issued the Forest Service six permits to burn out hazardous brush from 1,700 acres. Four of the permits were for areas torched in the Station Fire. But Forest Service officials reported burning out a mere 13 acres, said Sam Atwood, spokesman for the AQMD."

Media issued by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection: What is Pre-Fire Management?
"The use of prescribed or intentionally set fire under controlled circumstances, can remove unhealthy and dangerously overgrown vegetation before a wildfire strikes. Prescribed fire projects reduce the risk of large damaging wildfires while improving the growing conditions of native plants and wildlife."

It is NOT a fact that King Cyrus was a Zoroastrian.
Show me the archeological proof and manuscript evidence that links even the mention of Zoroastrianism and King Cyrus.
You cannot because it does not exist.
Therefore, amounst other reasons as well, I do not believe that King Cyrus was a Zoroastrian or that the religion of Zoroastrianism was existant during the period of Cyrus.

"Cyrus was not a Zoroastrian[Parsee] because Zoroastrianism became the national religion of Persia(Iran) by the Sassanian Dynasty who were the succeeding dynasty of Persia. Cyrus had founded the Achaemenean Dynasty. The national religion of Persia(Iran) established during the beginning of the Medean Dynasty was Magianism. Not to be confused with Zoroastrianism of religious reformer Zoroaster[Zartosht;Zarathustra]. Zoroaster's timeline was never finalized by scholars and historians of Persia(Iran)."

"The proclamation of Cyrus shows that he was not a Zoroastrian like Darius and Xerxes, but that as he claimed to be the successor of the Bab. kings, so also he acknowledged the supremacy of Bel-Merodach the supreme Babylonian god."
