k.ram,
Thanks for the Ishwaran Sharan interview. I just read it. It was brilliant, and so true. He really knows his stuff. (I needn't have added my lengthy post to the thread, because that hamsa.org link Bharatvarsh had pasted and the Sharan interview have basically stated it all).
As regards the Parsis and the strict marriage laws they have, we must ensure that they survive as a community in India, and by extension in the world. So we must help to increase the chances of Parsee women meeting up with Parsee men and get married, have children, etc. I daresay they've already set up facilities to arrange contact. Are there any special websites out there that can arrange such meetings (like say matrimonial sites)? It must be very difficult for Parsees to find partners when there are so few of them and the chance of contact being smaller. The internet will definitely help in this though.
