WHY THE STORY OF JESUS IN BIBLE IS TYPICALLY THE SAME AS STORY OF HORUS THE SUN GOD IN THE ANCIENT EGYPT?

Well there was this great marriage between the Christians and the Romans and they cooked up this story at the Council of Nicaea in the year 325.

BLASPHEMY ... against Horus!!!!

No ancient worshiper of Horus would let you get away with such talk, you vile blasphemer of Horus!!

Seriously, this claim about the story of Jesus being like the story of Horus in ancient Egypt is often spouted, but any student of ancient mythology can tell you that it is complete crap.

The first thing such skeptics claim is that Horus was "born of a virgin".

Worshipers of Horus' mamma, Isis, would have you in chains for such blasphemy against her, but only if the worshipers of Horus' daddy, Osiris, didn't get to you first. Horus was the son of Isis and Osiris, and they made their baby Horus the was any human couple would.

Horus did not have 12 followers in the ancient myths. Nor was he crucified. Nor did he do any rising from the dead. OSIRIS was cut up in pieces and tossed in the Nile. But when you're a god, that's not enough to kill you. Isis reassembled him, but that didn't happen to Horus.

Later, as Christianity gained dominance in The Roman world, the stories of many pagan gods were changed to incorporate elements of Christianity. Remember, pagan religions seldom have "cannon" the way Judeo-Christian religions do. So their myths are free to change over time.

So, there are occasions when pagan religions borrow from Christianity, but not the other way round.

It's not "typically the same".

-Horus wasn't born of a virgin.

-There were no wise men at his birth or after.

-No shepherds either.

-And no star.

-He was born in a swamp.

-He wasn't a child teacher.

-Didn't perform miracles (other than fooling his uncle into thinking that he had ejaculated into Horus, when actually he ejaculated into Horus' hand, and creating a boat made of wood and making it appear to be created out of stone).

-He wasn't baptized.

-He didn't have 12 disciples or 70. He went into battle with four, known as the Heru-Shemsu, and countless soldiers and blacksmiths, against his uncle, Set.

-He didn't have a "ministry".

-He wasn't betrayed by a friend, and handed over to the authorities.

-He wasn't crucified.

In all honesty, the only four things that Horus has in common with Jesus is royal descent (but really, lots of people are of royal descent, including me), a miraculous birth (though not the same kind), death (though Horus' death was for a completely different reason, and the cause of death was different), and a resurrection (though Horus was not raised through his own power, but through the power of Anubis and Isis.

I really wish people would actually study this stuff before bringing it up here.

It's a common claim that the story of Jesus has nothing new in it, but that in other religions similar events were said to have occurred. For example, the Greek hero Heracles (whom we know as Hercules) was said to be the product of the intercourse of the Greek God Zeus and a human princess, Alcmene. To the sceptics, it would seem that Christianity borrowed a well-known religious phenomenon to account for the remarkable life and death of Jesus Christ.

However, a little bit of checking shows it's not the same basic story at all. In order to produce Heracles, Zeus had to have sexual intercourse with a woman. The same is true for all the accounts of gods having intercourse with human virgins. Yet at no stage in the biblical account of the conception of Jesus is the Holy Spirit, or God the Father, ever spoken of as taking human form and fraternizing with Mary sexually. Alas, the Mormons seem to indicate that, and so bring the Christian faith into disrepute. Mormons actually believe a lot of stuff that has more in common with myths than with the Bible, and for that reason, they are pseudo-Christian.

Early Christians were not syncretists - building together a makeshift religion from bits of other religions, and held together by the name of Jesus. Rather, they were soberly recounting the facts that they had learned first-hand. Luke's gospel account was likely taken from Mary herself, who lived on after Jesus' death and resurrection, being taken into the apostle John's home. And you fail to take into account that the truth of God is known to God's arch-enemy, Satan, who specializes in distorting that truth. Is God triune in His Being? Then Satan brings triads of gods into his pantheon of deities. But no triad is the same as the unique trinity that is God! There are subtle but important differences. Major on what you take to be similarities, if you like. Just bear in mind that you have swallowed Satan's bait and he's reeling you in, hook, line and sinker.

No. It's the other way around. Fallen Angels were created 15 billion years ago, hence thy posses far more knowledge of all things perteining Man and - like their own leader's ambition (as told in Ezekiel prophecy - "want to be like the Most High". In fact, they copy Him. THAT is the main reason almost all religious beliefs appear similar in all cases. Hindus have a "trinity" as well, which is also false, and so forth...

Sure to cause controversy in both academic and religious circles, The Moses Mystery examines the troubling question of why ancient Israel has no archaeological or documentary presence prior to and just after the Exodus from Egypt and challenges the conventional wisdom on the origins of the pre-Exodus Bible stories

Although the bible says that Israel’s formative history took place in ancient Egypt, biblical scholars and Egyptologists have steadfastly refused to explore the role of Egyptian history and literature on the origins of Jewish religion. Marshaling an astounding amount of research in the fields of biblical archaeology and Egyptian history, literature, and mythology, Greenberg shows that the first Israelites were native Egyptians and that the history of Israel before the Exodus is based almost entirely on Egyptian mythology.

Some of the many intriguing revelations in The Moses Mystery include

● The Twelve Tribes of Israel never existed.

● Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were characters from Egyptian mythology. The biblical story of Jacob and Esau, for example, draws together several myths about the Egyptian gods Horus and Set (the feuding twin brothers who fought even in their mother's womb) and weaves them into a story about biblical patriarchs.

● The first Israelites were Egyptians, followers of Pharaoh Akhenaten, whose attempts to introduce monotheism into Egypt engendered rage among the religious establishment.

● Moses served as chief priest in Akhenaten's cult and, after Akhenaten's death, had to flee Egypt to avoid execution.

● Pharaoh Horemheb waged a bitter campaign to eradicate all vestiges of Akhenaten's heresy, eliminating the evidence stone by stone and word by word. As a result, Akhenaten remained lost to history until nineteenth-century Egyptologists discovered the ruins of his capital city.

● When Horemheb died, Moses returned to Egypt, united his followers with other enemies of Egypt, and attempted to seize the throne from Ramesses I. The coup failed, but to avoid a civil war Moses and his allies were allowed sale passage out of Egypt. This was the real Exodus.

● After entering Canaan, the Egyptian followers of Moses formed military alliances with local Canaanite kings and with some of the recently arrived Greek invaders known as the Sea Peoples. This non tribal alliance of small kingdoms and city-states became biblical Israel.

You know, if you'd done even a teensy bit of research, you'd realize that zeitgeist is full of bologna.

ask why mohammed is held to be a prophet when all he really was was a syphilitic warlord

I just don't know

BECAUSE CHRIST, HORUS, DIONYSUS, KRISHNA, QUETZALCOATL ARE ALL THE SAME MYTH.
