While the Vulcan salute gesture came to be strongly associated with aliens in pop culture, its origins are very much human. More specifically, it's based on one of Earth's religions - which one?

The Vulcan salute was actually improvised by Leonard Nimoy who was Jewish and claimed to have borrowed it from the traditional Jewish blessing gesture.
