The doctrine of ECT - how did it come about?

Good chance Paul learned about it from Jesus, God bless you in the new year too!

That site has nothing to do with evangelical Christian universal reconciliation, so nothing it says has anything to do with any universalism I've seen discussed on this forum. But this is the ECT thread, not the UR thread. I only mentioned UR in passing as a source of some on-topic information; I didn't say anything about it, pro or con, that deserved a response.

Here is a quote from the article:

Both a spiritual afterlife of the soul and a physical resurrection at the end of time are concepts
of Zoroaster. Humanity can fall prey to evil, but after “purification” in Hell, ALL are saved at the
end of time. When the victory over evil is complete, the end of time will come where nothing
ever dies or decays, and there is no darkness – only LIGHT.

So should we assume that a spiritual afterlife of the soul and a physical resurrection at the end of time are also wrong doctrines just because they are from Zoroaster?
