I know alot of people believe in the biblical character Jesus, but how about this. I was reading a book the other day and the author began to talk about the origins of Judaism and Christianity. Here is a summary of what he said.
The story of Jesus is a mythical story based on esoteric symbolism of the Sun God. Hence Jesus is the "Son of God". The crown of thorns that he wore on the cross is symbolic of the rays of Sun, and is also seen on the Statue of Liberty (which is another symbolic figure). The cross itself comes from the Egyptian Ankh, which represents life and light, the Sun.
The trinity Jesus-God-Holy Spirit parallels many other mythical stories such as Horus-Osiris-**** (Egypt). Similarities between Horus and Jesus?
Jesus was the way, the truth and the life. Horus was the truth and the life.
Both the Good Shephard
Both were the lamb
Both are identified with a cross
Both were baptised at 30
Jesus was child of a virgin, Mary. Horus was the child of a virgin, ****.
The birth of both are marked by a star
Both were the child teacher in the temple
Jesus had 12 disciples. Horus had 12 followers
Jesus was the Morning Star. Horus was the Morning Star.
Jesus was the Christ. Horus was the Krst
Jesus was tempted on a mountain by Satan. Horus was tempted on a mountain by Set (Egyptian god of darkness, hence sun-Set)
Jesus was said to be judge of the ****. This was also said about ****, Krishna, Buddha, Ormuzd, Osiris, Aeacus and others.
Jesus is the Alpha and Omega, the first and last. So was Krishna, Buddha, Lao-Kiun Bacchus, Zeus and others.
Jesus performed miracles like healing the sick, raising the ****. So did Krishna(Hindu), Buddha, Zoroaster, Bochia, Horus, Osiris, Serapis, Marduk, Bacchus, Hermes and others.
Jesus was born of royal blood. So was Buddha, Rama, Fo-hi, Horus, Hercules, Bacchus, Perseus and others.
Jesus was born to a virgin. So was Krishna, Buddha, Lao-kiun, Confusius, Horus, Ra, Zoroaster, Prometheus, Perseus, Apollo, Mercury, Baldur, Quetzalcoatl (Mexican not mayan though) and far more.
Jesus will be born again. So will Krishna, Vishnu, Buddha, Quetzalcoatl and others.
The story of Jesus was created/recycled and used as a tool to enslave people's minds through a dictatorial religion, Christianity. This religion is not unique in any way.
The twelve disciples are symbolism for the twelves solar bodies (yes there are twelve) and twelve astrological signs. 12 is all over the place.
During Easter, the summer solstice, the sun begins to stay out shorter and shorter until its shortest length of time in December. Jesus was born on December 25th. It takes the Sun three days to recover from the winter solstice from December 21st/22nd to December 25th. He dies in March on Easer. Hence Jesus died and rose on the third day. The same length of time it took the Babylon Son of God, Tammuz to rise again.
Also March is during the astrological sign of Aries, the Ram or... the lamb.
Jesus is associated with the fish because that is when he was supposed to have been born. During the entering of the astrological house of Pisces not the sign. Astrological houses last somewhere around 2000+ years. We are now entering the house of Aquarious.
The Christian religious day is... SUNday.
The author then speaks about who the true authors of the New Testament are. Let me assure you they are not Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Peter, Paul or any of these Biblical characters.
As a matter of fact there is no documentation of anybody by these names ever to have been in these places at this time outside of the Bible. There is nobody named Pontius Pilate except in the Bible.
There is no written history of anybody named Moses, King David, King Solomon or most of the Biblical characters you read about except in the Bible. These are characters aer more symbolism that I could get into.
I have no problem with anybody's religious beliefs I just think it's necessary to do the research before you make that comittment.
So did Jesus really live? Or is he a biblical character that has been created and so hyped up that the whole world accepts him as LORD without looking at background information. Jesus was a duplicate, myth, and he has been used to control the populations to this day. Have you ever thought about where these religions came from? and why is Bush claiming to be a Christian? And why have so many wars been started in the past because of religion? And why was there centuries of Dark Ages when knowledge was suppressed because of religion? And why were so many people slaughtered at the inquisition because of RELIGION? It's because religion is a tool, a quite effective one at that.

It has not been proven that Jesus of Nazareth actually lived. As a matter of fact much of his story mirrors that of the Mithril Religion (a competing religion popular in Asia Minor (Turkey) at the time. It also mirrors Egyptian, Chinese, and Sumerian mythology.
I believe there is a God; there are just many different ways to worship him. I've always thought it was unfair that 14 million Jews, 1.5 million Muslims and 700 million Hindu's are going to hell; simply because they weren't fortunate enough to grow up with Christianity. Each of us has a soul worth saving and I don't think God has only left one option. You choose your faith based on environmental influences and what brings the most peaceful response.
FAITH is what makes Christianity a recognized and accepted religion. If you've seen or felt the spirit of the Lord and you know in your heart of hearts that what is being said is true, then you should not be offended if people challenge your thinking. You would be better served to research things for yourself and then come to your own conclusions. I've done my research and believe in Christianity and the redemption story. I just don't think the KJV of the Bible is a complete text, and continue my search for knowledge.

REALity wrote:^^^The temper. Why get so amp'ed? Somebody told you that God does things in people's lives and you believe that. You are right!! God does do things in people's lives but alter your perception and look at it like this for a second. What if God's life was our life. What if each and everyone of our lives was another one of God's lives just with a different mind (mind is what compiles experience). Our different thought processes is the only thing that seperates us from each other. Not the physical body that dies and passes. Also, I think what the poet was trying to say is that you're Christian because that is what you were raised as, which is exactly what you said. She wasn't trying to say that literally it's your mother who made you Christian. Can someone please make a comment about the former paragraph. I am putting tons of ideas into this thread, and all I'm getting back is, "I'm gonna defend this till I die!!", and nobody comes back with any thoughts about what I've said. What's the deal?? Obviously, I'm not pagan. Obviously, I'm not athiest. Obviously, I'm not attacking or trying to offend anyone so there is no need for the defense. Can somebody please say... "I disagree with this idea because...." So that we can have a discussion instead of "attack", defense. "I'm not gonna argue with those that don't listen" My ears are open all your doing is saying that you are going to defend yourself forever. Once again you have to laugh a little.
....i just don't feel like going back and forth with people that have no intentions of really listening to valid points...so...just wanted you to know I got ya back!!!! :lol:
