Answer:
D. Dualism describes like as a constant struggle between good and evil
Explanation:
Characterized by simple religious rites, Zoroastrianism or Mazdeism predominated as a religion in the region of the Persian Empire until the invasion and domination by Muslim Arabs in the 7th century. Developed by Zarathustra (or Zoroaster for the Greeks), around the 6th century BC, religion became prevalent in the Empire.
Zoroastrianism preached the dualistic interpretation of the world, divided between the forces of good and evil. Zarathustra's teachings affirmed the existence of a supreme god, who had created two other powerful beings who shared his own nature: Ormuzd (or Ahura-Mazda, or even Oromasdes, according to the Greeks) would be the source of all good, while Ariman (Arimanes) would be the origin of evil, after he rebelled.
