How can these religious people believe in a Jesus when he's literally?

A copy of many so called gods before he ever existed? (you don't have to read it all, but if you have any bit of sense and dignity you have to think twice of his existence in the first place. Mithra of Persia Zoroaster/Zarathustra From The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold by Acharya S (Adventures Unlimited, 1999) pp 107-123 If you know of more god-men like Jesus that should be on here, go to my contact page and let me know. Thanks. Attis of Phrygia --Attis was born on December 25 of the Virgin Nana. --He was considered the savior who was slain for the salvation of mankind. --His body as bread was eaten by his worshipers --His priests were “eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven.” --He was both the Divine Son and the Father. --On “Black Friday,” he was crucified on a tree, from which his holy blood ran down to redeem the earth. --He descended into the underworld. --After three days, Attis was resurrected on March 25 (as tradition held of Jesus) as the “Most High God. Dionysus/Bacchus Dionysus or Bacchus is thought of as being Greek, but he is a remake of the Egyptian god Osiris, whose cult extended throughout a large part of the ancient world for thousands of years. Dionysus’s religion was well-developed in Thrace, northeast of Greece, and Phrygia, which became Galatia, where Attis also later reigned. Although a Dionysus is best remembered for the rowdy celebrations in his name, which was Latinized as Bacchus, he had many other functions and contributed several aspects to the Jesus character: --Dionysus was born of a virgin on December 25 and, as the Holy Child, was placed in a manger. --He was a traveling teacher who performed miracles. --He “rode in a triumphal procession on an ass.” --He was a sacred king killed and eaten in an Eucharistic ritual for fecundity and purification. --Dionysus rose from the dead on March 25. --He was the God of the Vine, and turned water into wine. --He was called “King of Kings” and “God of Gods.” --He was considered the “Only Begotten Son,” Savior,” “Redeemer,” “Sin Bearer,” Anointed One,” and the “Alpha and Omega.” --He was identified with the Ram or Lamb. --His sacrificial title of “Dendrites” or “Young Man of the Tree” intimates he was hung on a tree or crucified. As Walker says, Dionysus was “a prototype of Christ with a cult center at Jerusalem,” where during the 1st century BCE he was worshiped by Jews . . . Dionysus/Bacchus’s symbol was “IHS” or “IES,” which became “Iesus” or “Jesus.” The “IHS” is used to this day in Catholic liturgy and iconography

Why is the Story of Jesus so similar to other 'Gods'?

First of all I believe in the real historical Jesus, not the mythlogical one that we have today For example Dionysus/Bacchus - "The Alpha and the Omega" Read ahead...

Gods and characteristics Discussion?

Horus - Egypt - 3000 BC Born on DEC.25TH. Born of a virgin. His birth was accompanied by a star in the east. Upon his birth he was adored by 3 kings. At the age of 12 he was a prodigal child teacher. At the age of 30 he was baptized and thus began his ministry. He traveled with 12 disciples performing miracles such as healing the sick and walking on water. Known by many names such as Lamb of God, The Light, The Truth, The good shepherd and many others. After being betrayed by Typhon, horus was crucified, buried for 3 days and thus resurrected. This attributes of Horus whether original or not seem to permeate many cultures of the world, from many other Gods are found to have the same, general mythological structure. Attis - Greece - 1200 BC Born of the virgin nana. Born on DEC.25th. Was crucified. Buried in a tomb for 3 days an then Resurrected. Krishna - India - 900 BC Born of the virgin Devaki. Star in the east signaling his coming Performed miracles with his disciples Upon his death, he was resurrected. Dionysus - Greece - 500 BC Born of a virgin Born on Dec.25TH Traveling teacher who performed miracles such as turning water into wine. He was referred to as the "King of Kings", "Alpha and Omega" and my others. Upon his death, he was resurrected. Mithra - Persia - 1200 BC Born of a virgin Born on Dec.25TH Had 12 Disciples Performed Miracles buried for 3 days and thus resurrected Also referred as "The Truth", "The Light" and many others. Sacred day of worship was Sunday. The fact of the matter is that there are many saviors from many different periods from all over the world who subscribe to these general characteristics. Here's a list of them: Chrishna of Hindostan. Budha Sakia of India. Salivahana of Bermuda. Zulis, or Zhule, also Osiris and Orus, of Egypt Odin of the Scandinavians. Crite of Chaldea. Zoroaster and Mithra or Persia. Baal and Taut, "the only Begotten of God," of phoenecia. Indra of Tibet. Bali of Afghanistan. Jao of Nepal. Wittoba of the Bilingonese. Thammuz of Syria. Atys of Phrygia Xamolxis of Thrace. Zoar of the Bonzes. Adad of Assyria. Deva Tat, and Sammonocadam of Siam. Alcides of Thebes. Mikado of the Sintoos. Beddru of Japan. Hesus or Eros, and Bremrillah, of the Druids. Thor, son of Odin, of the Gauls, Cadmus of Greece. Hil and Feta of the Mandaites. Gentaut and Quexalcote of Mexico. Universal Monarch of the Sibyls. Ischy of the island of Formosa. Divine Teacher of Plato. Holy One of Xaca. Fohiand Tien of China. Adonis, son of the vergin Io of Greece. Ixion and Quirinus of Rome. Prometheus of Caucasus. The question remains... why these attributes? Why the virgin birth and December 25TH? Why dead for 3 day an then the inevitable resurrection? Why 12 disciples or followers? To find out, lets examine the most recent of the solar Marcia's. Jesus Christ Was born of the virgin Mary on the 25TH of December in Bethlehem. His birth was announced by a star in the east which three kings followed to locate and adorn a new savior. He was a child teacher at 12 and at the age of 30 he was baptized by John the Baptist and thus began his ministry. Jesus had 12 disciples he travelled about with performing miracles such as healing the sick, walking on water, raising the dead. Also known as the King of Kings, Son of God, Light of the World, Alpha and Omega, Lamb of God and many others. Was betrayed by his disciples Judas and sold for 30 pieces of silver he was crucified, placed in a tomb and after 3 days was resurrected and ascended to Heaven. I'm just making these points so I can hear peoples thoughts and opinions. Almost forgot the source Zeitgeist http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeitgeist I appreciate all of your answers, thanks. ^^ To answer rushevents Set was once a great god universally adored throughout Egypt. Manetho, an Egyptian priest, says that he treacherously murdered Osiris and allied himself with the Shemites (the Israelites). This may possibly have originated the fable told by Plutarch that after the fight between Typhon and Horus, Typhon overcome with fright at the mischief he had caused, "fled seven days on an ass, and escaping begat the boys Jerusalem and Judaea." He is evidently connected with the Hyksos, the ancestors of the Jews according to Josephus, and both Typhon and the Jews were "an abomination" to the Egyptians. I did NOT cut and paste this. I listened to the documentary and wrote it up. Like I said, the source is above.

Did the Devil plant the story of Jesus into the minds of people before Jesus to lead them astray?

Did the Devil plant the story of Jesus into the minds of people before Jesus was born to lead them astray from the "real" Christ? There were several "god men" before Jesus who were also born on December 25th. Was Jesus reincarnated over and over in multiple places with different names? How do you explain this?? Just curious... _____________________________________________________ . ***Attis of Phrygia*** --Attis was born on December 25 of the Virgin Nana. --He was considered the savior who was slain for the salvation of mankind. --His body as bread was eaten by his worshippers --His priests were “eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven.” --He was both the Divine Son and the Father. --On “Black Friday,” he was crucified on a tree, from which his holy blood ran down to redeem the earth. --He descended into the underworld. --After three days, Attis was resurrected on March 25 (as tradition held of Jesus) as the “Most High God. ***Dionysus/Bacchus*** Dionysus or Bacchus is thought of as being Greek, but he is a remake of the Egyptian god Osiris, whose cult extended throughout a large part of the ancient world for thousands of years. Dionysus’s religion was well-developed in Thrace, northeast of Greece, and Phrygia, which became Galatia, where Attis also later reigned.

As Walker says, Dionysus was “a prototype of Christ with a cult center at Jerusalem,” where during the 1st century BCE he was worshiped by Jews . . . Dionysus/Bacchus’s symbol was “IHS” or “IES,” which became “Iesus” or “Jesus.” The “IHS” is used to this day in Catholic liturgy and iconography. ***Horus/Osiris of Egypt*** In the Egyptian myth, Horus and his once-and-future Father, Osiris, are frequently interchangeable, as in “I and my Father are one.” Concerning Osiris, Walker says: Of all savior-gods worshiped at the beginning of the Christian era, Osiris may have contributed more details to the evolving Christ figure than any other. Already very old in Egypt, Osiris was identified with nearly every other Egyptian god and was on the way to absorbing them all. He had well over 200 divine names. He was called the Lord of Lords, King of Kings, God of Gods. He was the Resurrection and the Life, the Good Shepherd, Eternity and Everlastingness, the god who “made men and women to be born again.” Budge says, “From first to last, Osiris was to the Egyptians the god-man who suffered, an died, and rose again, and reigned eternally in heaven. They believed that they would inherit eternal life, just as he had done . . .” Osiris’s coming was announced by Three Wise Men: the three stars Mintaka, Anilam, and Alnitak in the belt of Orion, which point directly to Osiris’s star in the east, Sirius (Sothis), significator of his birth . . . Certainly Osiris was a prototypical Messiah, as well as a devoured Host. His flesh was eaten in the form of communion cakes of wheat, the “plant of Truth.” . . . The cult of Osiris contributed a number of ideas and phrases to the Bible. The 23rd Psalm copied an Egyptian text appealing to Osiris the Good Shepherd to lead the deceased to the “green pastures” and “still waters” of the nefer-nefer land, to restore the soul to the body, and to give protection in the valley of the shadow of death (the Tuat). The Lord’s Prayer was prefigured by an Egyptian hymn to Osiris-Amen beginning, “O Amen, O Amen, who are in heaven.” Amen was also invoked at the end of every prayer. As Col. James Chruchward naively exclaims, “The teachings of Osiris and Jesus are wonderfully alike. Many passages are identically the same, word for word.” Osiris was also the god of the vine and a great travelling teacher who civilized the world. He was the ruler and judge of the dead. In his passion, Osiris was plotted against and killed by Set and “the 72.” Like that of Jesus, Osiris’s resurrection served to provide hope to all that they may do likewise and become eternal. Osiris’s “son” or renewed incarnation, Horus Horus shares the following in common with Jesus: --Horus was born of the virgin Isis-Merion December 25 in a cave/manger with his birth being announced by a star in the East and attended by three wise men. --His earthly father was named “Seb” (“Joseph”). --He was of royal descent. --At at 12, he was a child teacher in the Temple, and at 30, he was baptized having disappeared for 18 years. --Horus was baptized in the river Eridanus or Iarutana (Jordan) by “Anup the Baptizer” (“John the Baptist”), who was decapitated. --He had 12 desciples, two of who were his “witnesses” and were named “Anup” and “Aan” (the two “Johns”). --He performed miracles, exorcised demons and raised El-Azarus (“El-Osiris”), from the dead. --Horus walked on water. --His personal epithet was “Iusa,” the “ever-becoming son” of “Ptah,” the “Father.” He was thus called “Holy Child.” --He delivered a “Sermon on the Mount” and his followers recounted the “Sayings of Iusa.” --Horus was transfigured on the Mount. --Horus was transfigured on the Mount. --He was crucified between two thieves, buried for three days in a tomb, and resurrected. --He was also the “Way, the Truth, the Light,” “Messiah,” “God’s Anointed Son,” “the “Son of Man,” the “Good Shepherd,” the “Lamb of God,” the “Word made flesh,” the “Word of Truth,” etc. --He was “the Fisher” and was associated with the Fish (“Ichthys”), Lamb and Lion. --He came to fulfill the Law. --Horus was called “the KRST,” or “Anointed One.” --Like Jesus, “Horus was supposed to reign one thousand years.” Furthermore, inscribed about 3,500 years ago [1500 years before Jesus’ alleged advent] on the walls of the Temple at Luxor were images of the Annunciation, Immaculate Conception, Birth and Adoration of Horus, with Thoth announcing to the Virgin Isis that she will conceive Horus; with Kneph the “Holy Ghost,” impregnating the virgin; and with the infant being attended bh three kings, or magi, bearing gifts. In addition, in the catacombs at Rome are pictures of the baby Horus being held by the virgin mother Isis—the original “Madonna and Child.” As Massey says: It was the Gnostic art that reproduced the Hathor-Meri and Horus of Egypt as the Virgin and child-Christ of Rome . . . You poor idiotai, said the Gnostics [to the early Christians], you have mistaken the mysteries of old for modern history, and accepted literally all that was only meant mystically
