Orphism as a major religion

Being an ethnic religion didn't stop Judaism from being considered one of today's major religions.

Judaism is not a major religion - it doesn't have a lot of people. It is considered a major religion because of it's influence on Christianity and Islam and because the Jews are spread all over the world.

But I think it is not impossible to have a larger spread of Orphism in the world - however i don't know a good POD for that.

Yes, but it's still a religion that transcends mere "ethnicity" by being an monotheistic religion having an all powerful being who is the supreme force of the world. The problem with Orphism is that it is too strongly rooted in Greek mythology, with the Orpheus conneciton being the main driving point.

Also, Judaism is still technically an ethnic religion, although who is a Jew is something to be discussed separately.
