Is Zoroastrianism in anyway related to Spiritual Satanism?

I don't want to get diverted too much on this, but I was looking over the Demons section on JOS and the definition the Catholic Church had for what they term "Devil Worship" came up.  I didn't realize how much time I wasted deciphering that bullshit.  Anyway, I finally wised up and quit trying to decipher that crap.  I got everything but the last 2 paragraphs deciphered which seems to be a whole new level of crap designed to get you spinning in circles.  It was then I realized that I probably won't get any divine revelation from becoming a Whirling Dervish.  I was curious though - is Ahura Mazda a God or Demon with respect to Satan?  I assume Daeva simply means "God that shines with light".  Then there's this Demon Chief called Ahriman.  I didn't see them in the Demons section and was wondering if that's just a diversion and more blasphemous crap or not.  Or was it designed to steer would be truth seekers away from true Demons and towards the enemy?   
 
 
I haven't read much about Zoroastrianism.. But from the little thing whatever I have read, I would say that it is indeed related to Satanism. However, I have also come to believe that, it was the antithesis of spiritual satanism, where the 'suras' and 'asuras' were reversed. 'Ahura' essentially means the Sanskrit 'asura', or the evil race of gods while 'sura' meant the good race of gods, essentially our gods. (I have a different theory on suras and asuras). That means, Ahura Mazda, the Zoroastrian god may have been on the shady side for us, while he was the good god for them.
The Ahirman or more popular Aryaman was the opposite of Ahura Mazda which meant he was the evil according to Zoroaster, but according to Rig veda, he was one of the 33 important gods alongside Indra and the lot. 
At the same time, the sun is also an important god for both the Vaidic people (ancient Indo-Sumerian people) as well as Zoroastrians. Hence, one may get a sense that Zoroaster somehow messed up the entire concept of the good and evil demons. One may also feel that the original corruption of 'The God' and 'The Devil' may have come from this (just my hypothesis).
Anyone who has more knowledge can correct me if I am wrong.
