Oh? Idols to Dionysus are littered all over the Americas arent they? They didn't believe the same things, it's the narratives that have similar structures. Comparative mythology never ignores the significant differences between the beliefs of isolated cultures while making observations as to their similarities. Sometimes the narratives are similar but the underlaying motives or explanations can be night and day. In any myth about reality you're going to find similarities. The sun shines on the Americas and Europe, rain falls on both continents, rivers flow, the seasons pass, people die etc etc etc. The greatest similarity amongst all religions is just how "human" the characters described are. Now what on earth would explain that? I just can't think of anything at all......
This line of reasoning is exactly akin to digging through a ten pound bag of pennies and then going into complete shock when you find two that were minted in the same year. Well no shit, you had a ten pound bag of pennies. Spiritual buffet.
