  Armenians, before becoming the First Nation to accept Christianity as their national religion in 301 A.D were Zoroastrian as far back as 5th century BC. &nbsp;We still have some Zoroastrian traditions. &nbsp; Ahura Mazda was Aramazd and you can still find the common name Aram in many Armenians. &nbsp;Thanks for this video because I’ve always been interested in learning more

  A proud Pakistani Zoroastrian here! Born in the blessed land of Hapta-Hendu (Indus Valley), the fifteenth of the 16 good lands and countries created by Ahura Mazda himself. I gotta say, this is the most unbiased and factual video about Zoroastrianism on the internet. Thank you for this. This is what I am gonna use to teach my friends about my religion. <br>Humata, Huxta, Huvarshta (اندیشه نیک, گفتار نیک, کردار نیک) ❤

  I&apos;d love to hear more about the early Iranian religion that Zarathustra was rebelling against. A comparative religion survey of Indo European religion itself would be a major project too.

  It&apos;s interesting to contrast Mithraism, usually termed a &apos;mystery-religion&apos; and &nbsp;Zoroastrianism, which is much more of an ethical philosophy like Buddhism. Persian history rocks! A fun fact: Zarathushti used to make a pilgrimage to Baku in modern-day Azerbaijan because the ground was so saturated with petroleum that flames would spontaneously pop up from the ground in some areas.

  I&apos;m a Persian from Afghanistan and in Persian we still use the word &quot;drugh&quot; as an equivalent of lie in English. I did not know that my ancestors used this word in that sense. Thank you so much for enlightening me about my ancestors which have been demonized by Muslims throughout history.

  I still find it incredibly cool that we can translate and read prayers, stories and other messages that are thousands of years old.
