Zoroastrianism would be a very peaceful way for the region compared to Hard-core Islam.
- saiya-jin 5y agoI would be careful with such assumptions. Even most tolerant religions can end up with population doing quite significant warfare, genocides and other horrible crimes. Sample case - buddhist armies conquering places like Ladakh in distant past. or a bitter merciless civil war between buddhist majority and hindu minority in Sri Lanka where both sides committed atrocities. Islam is very tolerant at its core, but many religions are twisted badly from their original intents, power/violence craving individuals being able to find alternative interpretations to many well-intended ideas.
