Perun is Thor though

Zoroasthrism has changed several times. The principal change was done by Daniel in 550 BC, the new religion became Mithraism, a subset of Judaism and the worship of the Jewish God.

Mithraism was changed to a Cosmic Mystery Religion to account for the movement and seeming departure of the Gods of Astronomy when Taurus went out of range due to the Earth’s procession of the equinoxes. It now was able to determine spring. A Religion that can’t determine the time to plant a floodplain is worthless to civilization then

Then Paul comes along overlaying Mithraism onto Christianity to give it many administrative attributes
