Zoroaster

He seems to have shown and taught men a path to freedom of moral choice. But what do I know. Still, I have have heard that he believed and taught that good deeds generally proceed from good intentions, and that seems right. He suggests to me that the great value in a great religion is its morality. Still I have known religious men who knew right from wrong, and chose wrong. He suggests that an important value in a religion is that it uphold a man in his good thoughts, good words, and good deeds. I go along with that today.

Zoroaster seems to value man's inward relationship with truth. Zoroaster seems a wise and holy man and I go along with him in this too.

Why do we lie about our imprisonment laws?
Why do we lie about our legal system?
Why do we lie about our support of our Bill of Rights?
Why do we lie about our freedom?
Why can't we speak the truth about our agreements with each other?
Why all the lies?
Why this fear of honesty?
