Shintoism (the traditional religion of Japan). Zoroastrianism (the traditional religion of Persia). Manicheeism (probably doesn't exist any more). Catharism (an offshoot of Manicheeism that was very popular in Europe in the tenth to thirteenth centuries). Jainism (an offshoot of Hinduism). The Ancient Egyptian religion. The Ancient Canaanite religion (very nasty). The Ancient Celtic religion.
