Zoroastrianism has one Creator God, but also 'emanates' seven divine entitites, the Amesha Spenta, who personify things like righteousness, good intention, and immortality. There's also a god of evil, Ahriman (no relation to a Catholic poster here, I presume). Ahura Mazda is omnibenevolent and omniscient, but not omnipotent, Ahriman has a chance.

It's hard to have just one God in charge of everything, because then they are also responsible of everything bad. Jehovah has Satan, but because Jehovah believers claim Jehovah is omnibenevolent and omnisicent, Satan can't do anything Jehovah doesn't let him do, so there's that. Zoroastrianism makes more sense, IMHO.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
