And zoroastrianism split off/evolved from the old proto-Avestan traditions, which themselves evolved alongside/from an ancient Indo-iranian root, of which Hinduism is the only other surviving branch.

Ten holy hecks, all major religions are cousins.

Idk, the “all is one” brand of eastern religions seems to be pretty distinct from the hierarchical “God is like a king so having one is natural” western ones.

I'd love to know what the most isolated religion is, the one that has the fewest common branches or cousins with any other Extant religions. It's probably something like those handful of languages which only have a handful of people alive who still speak them.
