Oddbean new post about login | logout did you know that iran practiced zoroastrianism before islam was perceived as the main religion by westerners? i wasn’t trying to sound mean at all lol. i apologize.
also zoroastrianism predates christianity and catholicism and is the first monotheistic religion. so the architecture is not orthodox since it predates it by many years.
you learn something everyday. I remember reading/listening somewhere that the magi who came from the east were zoroastrians. ill try to find that video by patristix
From what I learned, I wouldn't consider Zoroastrianism a monotheistic religion. But there are also those who don't consider Christianity monotheistic, either. So... 🤷♂️
Ah. This is clarifying: "There are two main reasons why Zoroastrianism is not and should not be considered a dualistic religion. The first is that Zoroastrians do not consider themselves to be dualistic. In their minds, they worship one god, namely Ahura Mazda. Second, the definition of dualism lends credence to the monotheism of the Zoroastrian faith. A basic definition of dualism is “a doctrine that the universe is under the dominion of two opposing principles one of which is good and the other evil.” But Zoroastrians believe in the supremacy of Ahura Mazda."
