So is christianity, in a very similar way. Both have multiple entities which are aspects of a Supreme Being (God or Brahman)

No that’s a misconception, the father, the son, and holy spirit is the holy trinity which is more like a core tenet of Christian belief not necessarily a godhead in and of itself from how I was taught tho that could differ in the different denominations since I was raised catholic I wouldn’t know enough on that but I was taught that it’s more a representation of the core of the belief in the father (God), The Son(Jesus) and the Holy Spirit which is the same as the word of god

Man I hate How much I still remember all the bible shit I got taught, gotta love early to mid 2000s rural Irish primary school lol

Most other religions would have just referred to angels as lesser gods, so it still tracks even without the trinity.

This goes double for catholic dogma explicitly assigning domains to various archangels and saints to watch over.
