I had never heard of it before. It's amazing what people will believe.

@rogueflyer I'd heard there are thoughts that Jesus had studied Zoroastrian religion , and that many of his teachings were based on the older religion .

@Cast1es I can believe it. If so he stole some of the concepts.

@rogueflyer Perhaps he admired their concepts , and taught them to his followers as well . To the very best of my knowledge , his teachings were all verbal , though written down later by his diciples . He was taught in Jewish schools . I don't recall him saying anywhere that he was originating everything he taught .
