What Is Zoroastrianism?

First, since this religion isn’t widely known in many parts of the globe, it’s important to understand the basics of Zoroastrianism. One of the oldest monotheistic religions, it began in ancient Persia. In Zoroastrianism, followers praise only a single prophet. 

Dating back to the sixth century, Zoroastrianism was founded by a prophet who taught about the highest god and his clash with the Destructive Spirit. These teachings spread across Persia and the entire region. In this religion, people are expected to express their faith in the one deity through Good Thoughts, Good Words, and Good Deeds.
