What do Christians think about Zoroastrianism? Are they viewed as complete heathens or is there a certain level of respect given to them because of their actions in the Bible and the similarities in their teachings?

I'll tell you when I meet a Christian who knows what that is. IMO Christians should/would think heathen.

Freeing the Jews from their captivity mostly. This was a dumb point and I regret making it.

Leo Baker
the magi (often called the three wise men) were zoroastrians too
Robert Watson
They look at it as Luke looked to Darth Vader. It's the father they're afraid to admit.
Kayden Hall
It's more likely the other way around
Dylan Butler
complete heathens

It's one of the main religions that gave foundation to Christianity. I always found it very interesting, too bad Romans and Persians couldn't be friends.
Jesus Christ was apparently supposed to be the saoshyant don't know what went wrong.
Ahura Mazda and Angra Mainyu are quite apparently God and the Devil.
The only thing I don't understand is the incest. I'm not sure if it was reserved for high priests and royalty or if it was supposed to be widespread. But boy was Zoroaster wrong about it strengthening the genes. Maybe it was a metaphore for something else and the dumb Arab inbreds misinterpreted it after the invasion of Persia.

That's where your wrong friend.The Saoshyant has come now.
Isaiah Price
There are supposed to be 3 of them though, the last one is supposed to defeat all forces of evil and give us a golden age and heaven on earth
Let's hope

they tried helping eachother against the muslims, but they had been warring too much with eachother in the previous years and Khalid was a player character
Owen Jenkins
The (Christian) devil is a mere fallen angel. That is quite different from Angra Mainyu who is the real antithesis to Mazda.

You guys realize that Zoroastrians are in the Gospels, right?
The Magi who visited and adored the newborn Christ after observing the Star of Bethlehem were Zoroastrian priest-astronomers. Apparently they considered Jesus their Saoshyant.
As a Christian I regard Zoroastrianism as one of the better natural religions.

Interesting heathen tier

And your sources for that...?

Does the word "ahura" have any relation to the Hindi "asura"?
Ian Foster
They're viewed as heathens. At best you could be like Cyrus and be viewed as the instrument of God's justice.
Justin Ramirez
"Magi" literally used to mean "Zoroastrian", not "wise man" or "magician."

What/whom do I read if I'm interested in zoroastrianism?
Julian Moore
Yes it's the same word. In Hinduism, the daevas are good and the azuras are wicked, while in zoroastrianism this is reversed.
Caleb Wood
this i would also like to know
Luke Wright
Most I know probably don't know what Zoroastrianism is. The ones that do, probably lump them with other religions such as Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, etc.
I think it makes them uncomfortable that it's older and shares a history, the similar myths in both gives some illegitimacy to the bible as the sole source of religious history. Does that make sense? Strange bedfellows, you might say.

Does anyone know? Some sort of crossbow?
