How Zoroastrianism Changed the World: Impact on Judaism, Christianity, and Islam
You may never have heard of it, but you’ve likely been influenced by it. This little-known religion has inspired Voltaire, Nietzsche, and Freddy Mercury. George R.R. Martin based his Game of Thrones character, the Lord of Light on it. Mazda was named after its main god. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have all been profoundly shaped by it …
Excellent summary on Zoroastrianism and its influence on Abrahamic religions. Not enough awareness exists even within our community on how Zoroastrianism influenced theological principles in these religions.
Thank you Yazdi, for this important video
Much of this I already knew, but some of it was new to me – and I thank you for that! I will share it widely.
My father instilled in me a deep and abiding pride in the influence Zoroastrianism had and continues to have on the world. I tell anyone who will listen.
