re: What I find interesting is that there is very little original religious sources predating about 500BC. Thus accurate histories of the rise of these religions and how they influenced each other is not easy to establish.

Interesting subject, but not one I'm personally going to spend a lot of time with.

Humans will always "fill in the blanks" of their understanding, it's our nature. If it's science, we call it theory. If it's religion, we call it faith. In the end it is imagination; as a species we just can't stand not knowing so we fill in the void with something.

It's our strength more than our weakness.

Zubin Mehta, the well known conductor is (was??) Zoroastrian BTW.

I will ask him when I attend "La Forza del Destino" conducted by him in Munich early July :)...
