What 2 other mono theistic religions beside judaism?

Judaism, Islam, and Christianity are seen as the three major monotheistic religions in the world. This can be argued, though. Some people believe that Christianity believes in three gods that form one being. Others believe that Christianity has two gods, God and the Devil. Sometimes Islam and Judaism are not seen as perfectly monotheistic. Actually, a common misconception is that Hinduism is polytheistic. Hinduism believes in one almighty God that expresses himself in different ways. This can be compared to the Abrahamic religions, Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. God sometimes is called different names in these religions depending on what the Lord is doing. God the defender, God the powerful, God the great, God the merciful, God the creator. All of these are referring to God, but they specify what God is doing. In Hinduism God is everywhere and in everything. God is too mighty to be understood, so when God does different things, God is seen differently.In conclusion, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, and Christianity can all be seen as monotheistic religions. If you do not understand any of what I said, simply stick to the Abrahamic religions and say Islam, Judaism, and Christianity.
