What is with the trolls deleting my questions?
Ahura Mazd? (also known as Ohrmazd, Ahuramazda, Hormazd,and Aramazd) is the Avestan name for a divinity of the Old Iranian religion who was proclaimed the uncreated God by Zoroaster, the founder of Zoroastrianism. Ahura Mazda is described as the highest deity of worship in Zoroastrianism, along with being the first and most frequently invoked deity in the Yasna. Ahura Mazda is the creator and upholder of Aisha (truth). Ahura Mazda is an omniscient, but not an omnipotent God, however Ahura Mazda would eventually destroy evil. Ahura Mazda's counterpart is Angra Mainyu, the "evil spirit" and the creator of evil who will be destroyed before frashokereti (the destruction of evil).

God and Ahura Mazda have similar roles. Both are said to have created the universe, both are said to be eternally good, both are said to be uncreated individuals who cannot die, both are said to uphold justice and fight evil.
People, Zoroastrianism is way before Judaism. Zoroastrianism was like one of the earlier religions before the main stream religions came about.
