Did Zoroastrianism influence Judaism?

A:Probably yes, although scholars simply point out the parallels and let the reader make his or her own judgement on this. We find that many Jewish beliefs and practices that arose during the Persian period are very similar to beliefs and practices in Zoroastrianism. Zoroastrianism was the religion of the Persians, whom the Jews first met when the Persians defeated the Babylonian empire and permitted the Jews to return to their homeland. The Book of Isaiah demonstrates how grateful the Jews were, giving rise to the possibility that any similarities in the two religions, acquired by the Jews at around this time, could have reflected this gratitude.


Will it take many years for other religions to find mainstream acceptance in the US?

The term "other religions" is ambiguous. In the US and most of the western world there are Christians, Jews, Moslems, Mormons, Buddhists, Hindus, Wiccans, Native religions, Voodoo, Spiritualism, Scientology and many others. References to aspects of these religions and their beliefs are easily understood by most literate people. Practices of the religions (meditation, yoga, statues of the founders) are common even when divorced from the actual religious beliefs. All of these factors would class as mainstream acceptance to most observers.


When The Romans took control over the Jews why did they allowed the Jews to practice the religious beliefs?

The Romans were tolerant of other people's beliefs and they allowed "foreign" religions as long as those religions or practices were not treasonous or were not detrimental to the empire in some way.Answer 2Because the Jews agreed to live by Roman rule.The Romans did not generally object to the religious beliefs of their subject peoples provided the latter also observed Roman religious practices. Jews and Christians of course refused to do this.The Romans never forced their religious beliefs on any people they subjected. On the contrary, they often embraced religious practices and even gods from other religions if they liked the look of them. You must remember that the Christians (and later, the Muslims) have been the only believers in history to hold that their religion is superior to anyone else's AND translated that conviction into converting others and suppressing their original beliefs .So by our standards, the Romans were religiously tolerant. By their own standards, it wouldn't even enter their minds to suppress a local religion unless its beliefs brought the locals in direct conflict with their political or strategic interests.The Romans were actually very tolerant of "foreign" and "different" religions.They also made a differentiation be religions (practiced since antiquity) and cults (new beliefs). The Jewish religion was recognized as being practiced even before Rome existed and was thus granted an exception for they "strange" refusal to sacrifice to the Emperor. Cults (e.g. the new Christianity) could not be granted such an exception and if their followers were to refuse to sacrifice to the Emperor then they would be persecuted to attempt to force them to sacrifice.
