Zoroastrians believe there is an eternal battle between good and harm in the world. Everybody has the responsibility to fight evil both spiritually and physically. Zoroastrians believe God created man and is the creator all things. This is how they see themselves, as fellow workers in the battle.
There are two types of time
Zoroastrianism divides time into two types: weekly and daily. The former is the sacred time of day while the latter is the period reserved for the dead. Zoroastrians believe the dead can have an effect on the living. These spirits can bring fertility and prosperity, or bring hardships and sickness. They offer wine, milk, pomegranates and quinces as offerings to these spirits.
One
Zoroastrianism refers to a religion that emphasizes one God. Although its beliefs are very similar to Christianity in many ways, Zoroastrianism's belief system does not hold the same universality. In fact, the Hebrew people developed the concept of one God, over a thousand years before the Zoroastrian religion was founded. The prophet Isaiah, for example, spoke of the virgin birth of Christ around 701 BC, predating Zoroastrianism by a century.
Purity
Zoroastrianism's most important concept is purity. It refers to the belief that the creation of Ahura Mazda is perfect and that we should not defile it. In practice, this is the Zoroastrians' refusal to have their bodies cremated or buried. Instead, they laid their dead bodies at the Tower of Silence. Here, vultures ate them.
Goodness
Zoroastrianism holds the importance of goodness. Zarasthura was the founder of Zoroastrianism and taught his followers to follow the threefold way. This path is analogous to the "law of love" in Christianity, which teaches the importance of seeking to make wise decisions according to God's intentions. However, Zoroastrianism places emphasis on goodness rather than purely good. Despite similarities to Christianity, Zoroastrianism's doctrines can also be found within many other religions.
