Zoroastrianism
Zoroastrianism is a religion that was stated by a man named Zoroaster. It is an Iranian religion. It has
Almost 2.6 million members. Zoroastrians believe in one universal God as do the Judaism religion and
the Christians. The Jews as they are called and the Zoroaster’s don’t believe in a god in human form.
This is who Christians call Jesus. The Christians known path the salvation because of sin. Zoroastrianism
Is also called Mazdaism. The Zoroastrians call there God Ahura Mazda which they say means Illuminating
Wisdom. There evil God is Angra Mainya which they say mean Destructive Spirit.
The Christians call our creator God and our evil spirit Satan. The Zoroastrianism call there bible the
Aresta and the Christians call there bible the King James Holy Bible ( BASIC INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
LEAVING EARTH). The Judaism faith is uses the Torah. In the Zoroastrian religion they believe in their
God having two sides the human being and the mind which they separate. Their religion believes
That people should take an active role in good deeds in their everyday lives in order to achieve true
Happiness. They believe that water and fire are important and us it during their pray rituals. Their
Temple is a fire temple. They believe that fire stands for spiritual insights and water stands for wisdom.
The Zoroastrians are taught to marry their own as is Christians and Jews. This idea keeps down
Confusions and debates. The Zoroastrians believe as the Christians and Jews that the soul before
they are created already exist with the Supreme Being and after death return to it. All of the
religious sects believe In a judgment taking place after death. When a person die they are buried
or cremated. All these things are the same in all religions.

The Zoroastrians believe that there is not much a difference between the natural world and the Spirit-
ual world. As with the Christian and Judaism the Zoroastrians say that their god created 7 special
beings to help him. In Christianity there are 3. God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit plus angels.
The one we call the devil or Satan has a trinity as well.They also so believe that in the end
the good force will subdue the evil one. They all believe that in the last day the sun and the moon
will be darkened. The Christians believe that it will drip away in blood.
As we can see the beliefs of the Zoroastrian’s can be affirmed because the beliefs of most religious
sects are one in the same. There are very few differences between religions. There are some things
stated in some religions that are not stated in others. I can give an example even though
the world was destroyed by water or a flood the first time. There is a rainbow conventant
that will not happen again. The next time fire shell rain down. In theZoroastrian religion
they very much use water and fire in their religion. In the other two religions talked about today
in this paper, they don’t use water and fire that much, but there are stories in the bibles
That showed that water and fire is important.
