The Emperors of Iran were the first secularists Mr Mattie Fein

Some people think they know about Iran's history. A good example is this one:

As with the shah's monarchy, the current dictatorship of the mullahs is an aberration from Iran's historical march towards secular democracy.


Where does Mr Mattie Fein think Iran's historical roots come from? They come from the Declaration of Human Rights by Cyrus the Great. That was the first secular move ever by any human being. And he got it by studying the Zend Avesta.
