Very true, the first thing the early Abrahamic religions did after breaking away from Zoroastrianism in BCE Canaan was abolish the doctrine of the Holy mother A'sherah, (mother Nature, the lady of the Grove and the trees AKA Isis) the consort and equal of Ahura Maza and effectively try to remove her from history.
It did not work and she was sneaked back in to Christian mythology about a thousand years later as both Mother Mary and Mary Magdalen (the cult of the black Madonna)
She also turned up again in the 1970s as the cartoon superhero " 'She-ra" princess of power
The Mormon Church reintroduced her as "Heavenly Mother" in the 1830s, but they don't like to talk about it as an official church doctrine.
