A Brief History of Zoroastrianism
Uncover the forgotten origins of humanity's most influential faith—the ancient religion that gave birth to concepts of good versus evil, heaven and hell, and the final judgment that shaped Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
Zoroastrianism stands as one of history's most consequential yet least understood religions. Founded by the prophet Zoroaster in ancient Persia over 3,000 years ago, this pioneering monotheistic faith introduced revolutionary concepts that would fundamentally transform human spiritual thought. This fascinating exploration reveals how a religion that once dominated vast empires and influenced world civilization now survives as a small but resilient community carrying forward humanity's oldest prophetic tradition.
This compelling narrative reveals how Zoroastrianism's ethical dualism and prophetic vision laid the groundwork for Western religious thought while following the remarkable journey of a faith community that has survived conquest, persecution, and exile to remain guardians of humanity's most ancient monotheistic tradition.
