Nonexistent. There's only like 120k Zoroastrians alive today, and most of them don't even live in Iran now because they fled the country en masse after the 1979 revolution. The country with the largest Zoroastrian population now is India, which has roughly half of the global Zoroastrian population. Nobody's actually sure how many Zoroastrians are left in Iran, depending on which counts you believe there could even be more Zoroastrians in America than in Iran.

Maybe if the tiny minority of Iranian Zoroastrians held outsized influence in the government they could start a subversive campaign to enforce their religion in Iran, but they don't, so they can't. They're doomed to die out in Iran.

Curious enough Kurdish nationalists (especially during the war against ISIS) in all four regions have been converting to Zoroastrianism en masse, but it's more of a LARPagan contrarian thing agaist Islam

If they've never formally converted under actual Iranian or Indian priests, have no validly ordained clergy of their own, and don't actually believe in the religion, how are they not LARPing?

So for you, lineage has to be constant and directly transmitted from person to person? If so, judaism ended like five times in the last 2000 years. They're like four layers of LARP deep.

I absolutely agree, especially if the theologians of that particular religion have rules how valid ordination occurs.
In the centuries after the expulsion of Jews from Jerusalem by the Romans rabbinical Jews still thought that they had to consencrate (lay hands) on Israeli soil to their successors. Rabbis from Iraq would sneak into Israel with a handful of students, consecrate them, and then return to their homeland until it became impossible due to political realities and the difficulty of travel. By the original rules of rabbinical Judaism, the "rabbinical succession" (very similar to the Catholic concept of apostolic succession) has ended.
The Mandaean priestly succession has likewise ceased after the unfortunate Iranian cholera epidemic of 1831 that killed all their validly ordained priests. Only two acolytes survived and had to basically rebuild the religious hierarchy from scratch - but because they're a minor order and the equivalent of Christian deacons, they did not have the divine power required to validly continue the line from antiquity.

there's no incentive to become zoroastrian. religions only survive by force.

There is a bigger chance that Iran turns Christian and chance for that is really low.

>Do you genuinely believe it?
>If no it is a larp
If you are a pagan because you refuse to worship Jew Gods than you're a larppagan, if you are a zoroastrian because muh Iranian nationalism you're a larppagan
I'm not even a chrustfag, but if you hate religions just be an atheist, don't larp as a nordic pagan or a zoroastrian.
