Question
What does Zoroastrianism teach will happen to the followers of other religons when they die?

Answer
Dear Artxerxes, ushta

Zoroastrians usually think that a Zoroastrian is a SPECIAL one. It does not teach anything in Zoroastrianism but the thought process of Zoroastrians have come through the 'narrow minded' society.

As for Zarathushtra's Zarathushtrianism, it teaches that all human beings are equal. Men, Women, without any relation to color, caste, creed, race, etc are equal.

I don't know what made you think of this question but if you read the Gathas of Zarathushtra it clearly states about Equality and Freedom of Choice.

Hope I have answered your question.
