Well first the Tower of Babel is present in the Tanakh, before Abaraham, so you can't use it as a "christian" alone tip. Well elements are taken from religions, as elements are created religion (FUG), it's not really new, in mangas there are lots of those elements, to give a few away for well known series : Obviously Bleach and Shaman King, In Naruto you have lots of Buddhism and Shintoism references, D-Grey MAn, Obviously also Neon genesis evangelion. I guess it sometimes just give some commentary on the symbols, or just the aestetics. Dragon Ball is an adaptation of "the journey to the West", which was about buddhists and Daoists immortals. You forgot the "cross" signs for the MAsheny spear technics, and so on...

Now wether SIU inspired himself of those, why not ? We can't deny he somehow "steal" characters concepts ( Urek Mazino, Ran , pokeballs etc...), however by putting them inside the logic of HIS tower, they have a whole new meaning an purpose => Never saw Eikichi Onizuka use the scorching fist of death, and pokéball aren't supposed to be bombs. You can't create a very WIDE universe without those kind of help, let's command SIU for the coherence and the intricacy he used so far !
