*Obviously* Christians need to understand that "religion" is a mere human construct - that it evolved through natural selection and continues to progress as a helpful supplement to humanity until personhood can be understood at the crossroads where science and spirituality ultimately intersect. Or, to put it in Biblical terms, embracing all those things in scripture that are attributed to man's sinful nature and the lie of Satan.
Does it nor occur to the anything-but-Jesus apologists that perhaps the Zoroastrian faith is a corruption of God's original plan as a result of a messed-up, post-Babel world in which MANY false and distorted religions popped following widespread popular disobedience?

"Man is entrusted with free will and must choose the right path in every act. With each choice, man defines and redefines himself. He must take full responsibility for every action and is judged in the hereafter by the sum of his deeds on earth."
Doesn't sound either pagan or corrupt to me. And there is nothing in the article than denigrates Christianity- on the contrary, many Zoroastrians also believe that Jesus (the real one, not the Islamic fantasy) was the Messiah.
