Zpeakerbox
The Zoroastrian Community's FIRST Online Youth Magazine
Welcome to Zpeakerbox! This is your portal of free expression from your mind to the eyes and ears of other Zarthushti youth all over the world. What you say matters and is well worth hearing. If you've got something on your mind, pertaining to our religion and community or not, then spill it. This is your space. Have your work published under your own name or discretely under a pen name.
We want to hear from you. Our only rule is to be considerate of other people and groups. Please be advised that there will be zero tolerance of personal attacks as well as group discrimination such as racial, gender, and sexual orientation remarks and slanders. The administration reserves the right to remove any offenders from Zpeakerbox without notice. Articles, editorials, plain pissed-off rants will be viewed by an editor to make sure the rules of the site are respected.
We like to call this a Z-zine which is like an e-zine (electronic magazine) but a Zoroastrian online magazine. Have fun and happy writing. Welcome to the Zoroastrian community's FIRST online youth magazine.
Wondering where all the action is? Click on the "Forums" link in your left-hand Navigation Menu or above on the upper tool bar and take a look for yourself!

Our community has many problems, and as the flame bearers of generations to come, these issues will fall upon us as they have our parents.
Recent conversations have further supported a notion I have harboured concerning the global Zoro community - people are aligning themselves toward a political perspective (i.e. reformist or conservative). Personally, this only seems like fuel to a fire; politics are the reason ALL religions are failing across the globe. It is us humans that destroy something beautiful and perfect.
After all, isnt there a great deal of good that comes out of some reform? Can not the staunch conservative teach us using history how to improve the religion for the future? Why is it people from both sides are not participating in discussion to overcome issues we are facing? Surely, there are things polar opposing political-religious groups disagree on BUT more important is what they do agree on, can work on and improve on.

What Does Faith Mean to You?
For many, faith and spirituality are important factors in life.
How do these terms fit in your life? What do they mean to you?

Can Zoroastrianism survive the modern world?
Fashion is a good example to consider. Today, the sudreh is being modified so that it may better "fit" underneath our every day clothes. Does it really consist of all correct nine parts? Similarly, some kustis are much more thin so that they are less visible under our clothes. Are these kustis actually made with 72 threads of lamb's wool? These are merely two examples.
As Zarthushtis, what are our responsibilities? Is it possible to stay true to our religion and keep up with change?

Happy 4th birthday, Zpeakerbox!
Zpeakerbox celebrated it's 4th birthday this past Wednesday, May 14th.
Over the course of the last four years, there have been a number of changes on the site including a new server change, new website look and layout, new faces, new friendships developed, and the growth of Zpeakerbox from just an ordinary networking website to an instrument in the positive impact of youth around the world. And yes, we may as well finally accept it, it has brought couples together, despite it not being a matrimonial site (and we still stand by that!)
Quite frankly, this website would not be here without the support of the administrators (Narius, Roopkirani, Parizad) and our moderators, past and present (Zoroangel, Human, DesertRose); not to mention, the amazing support our members have contributed to making Zpeakerbox a great success.
As always, we welcome any feedback you have of the site.
