There is a lot of concerning discourse happening at the moment in our community, which has led to a rise in very anti-women commentary online.

At FEZANA, we uphold Zarathustra’s message of good thoughts, good words, and good deeds. There is zero tolerance of hatred towards anyone and we strongly condemn the use of religion to justify demeaning and excluding others.
