I will make a post sometime that lists well over 15 religions that bedate Christianity in the idea of a virgin birth Son of God, and Dieing on the cross. Again I recommend the book I mentioned above. Egyptian religion is one of them that is exactically like Christianity. Am I saying I believe Jesus didn't die on the cross. YES and NO is my reply. I believe in a way he did and does. The son of god is a change from the egyptian religion which was the Sun of God. It was followed by the 12 disciple type beings represented by the 12 zodiac signs. the sun on the cross. If you draw a circle with the zodiacs in there order draw the sun in the center, then cut the circle into 4 pieces you will have the sun on the cross. and each section will represent the seasons. As the Equinoxs come it was known as he sun dieing on the cross. Don't take my word on it. Research it, I don't have all the answer and I am still trying to figure it out.
