Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Zoroastrianism introduced the concept of Ahura Mazda (good) versus Angra Mainyu (evil), which later developed into the Christian concept of God versus Satan as the personification of evil. The celebration of Easter is connected to the Jewish celebration of Passover and the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, which has no direct connection to Zoroastrianism. The belief that Jesus was born of a virgin is a Christian doctrine not found in Zoroastrianism. The idea of resurrection is also present in several other religions, including Judaism and Ancient Egyptian religion, and is not unique to Zoroastrianism in its influence on Christianity.
