Most of the evidence does point to Zoroastrianism...who knows.
Here is the origin of Christianity

Seems that among the many saviors at the time the real Jesus may have been Apollonius of Tyana.

Yes they are, only because they all claim to be "Abrahamic" religions. The great majority of them have never, ever heard of Zoroaster or his philosophy and the Muslim faith is not really based on the dogma of either Judaism or Christianity.
The interesting thing, is that while his teachings were part of the Hebrew oral tradition, they were not part of the Torah, and pretty much "bypassed" mainstream Judaism. After the time of Christ, some fringe sects, like the Essenes, incorporated them into the Christian teachings.
The whole idea of the "devil", angels, the great battle of good and evil, heaven, hell and purgatory, and a great many other concepts were all part of Zoraster's preachings.
It's a fascinating study, but most folks don't want to acknowledge that other people like Buddha and Zoroaster, and others, may have also been "inspired" by God, because they are arrogant.
