I guess my definition of 'major' is a bit different than yours.

That is not even logical not to mention untrue

Actually that is not true.
Only Abramatic religions share a common link in Abraham (hense the name)
Sikhism and certain forms of Hinduism are also monotheistic and have no connection to Abraham.
well considering that their are 23 million skih's in the world (twice the size of Jews) I would consider that a major religoion.
Also adding the Hindu branches that I spoke of your talking hundreds of millions, so yes that is considered major.

Piggy-backing.
How about all of the Greek, Roman, Egyptian and druidic influences that magically appeared in Christianity? That's not coincidence, it's the easiest way to convince foreigners to sign on.

that is wildly untrue. Only 3 monotheistic faiths believe that. Very very far from "all"

So all major monotheistic religions have a form of Delusion. Cool

Do you mean that the two religions that are offshoots of judaism accept the basic stories of judaism? Shocking!

It isn't a coincidence. It is myth-stealing.
