Seems to me Judaism pulling together multiple traditions in order to produce a set of laws laying out a moral code that were a marked improvement on what existed at the time, removed the whims of monarchs as the source of law, and tossed in improvements on public health practices for good measure is due a bit of applause.

If it's a world that has actual gods that do actual things like most fantasy worlds, then it's the result of flawed human beings trying to suss what the ineffable beings of the spirit world want from humanity.

Poly- or zero-theism ftw.

Monotheism is just an oligarch's idea of what a religion should look like.

This with Zarathrustra and Baháʼí would be sublime.
