BTW this iconographic syncretism already took place many centuries ago in Gandhara.

Sadly, the texts tended to travel eastwards rather than to the west - then again, the entrenched western monotheisms would prove hard to destroy. This is what happens when rampant fideism prevails = https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhas_of_Bamiyan.

    Please, explain. Not sure how to interpret it. I read the wiki entry but as there is much content, I don't know to what specifically you are referring to.
