ALL (western religions anyway) come out of the same nexus of mid-eastern cults from the bronze age. It is a simple matter to trace the different religious motifs and see how they were used to promote the focuses of the various cults.
Read some will ya? Try Joseph Campbell's 4 volume "The Masks of God: Primitive, Oriental, Occidental and Creative Mythology" as a primer on this subject. Merica Ellide is also a good source as is C.G. Jung and Fraizers "The Golden Brough". Also Robin Lane Foxes "Pagans and Christians".
Damnit the information is out there if you just take the time to poke around.

Matrix you are the ignorant one. Connections huh? Very well here are a few.
Orsis = Adonis = Talmuz = Jesus (among others) – the dying and resurrected god.
Moses = Zoroaster = Heracles (among others) the baby in a basket, the hero cast adrift.
2 Peter 1:16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

is that really what your left with? your venom is diluted
you asked which Horus...take your pick, Im easy as long as the similarity you chose is from a BCE writing.
Im telling you guys you have been lied to with this and you enjoyed the hell out of it too. Anything bashing Christianity doesn’t deserve factual scrutiny with your type Deny ignorance unless it pertains to Jesus right? Smells like a Dogma in here.

madness show us the freaking similarities already stop just telling us they exist.
God was his father. This was believed to be literally true in the case of Osiris-Dionysus; their God came to earth and engaged in sexual intercourse with a human. The father of Jesus is God in the form of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 1:18).A human woman, a virgin, was his mother.
He was born in a cave or cowshed. Luke 2:7 mentions that Jesus was placed in a manger - an eating trough for animals. One early Christian tradition said that the manger was in a cave.
At a marriage ceremony, he performed the miracle of converting water into wine.His followers were born-again through baptism in water.He rode triumphantly into a city on a donkey. Tradition records that the inhabitants waved palm leaves.He had 12 disciples.
He was killed near the time of the Vernal Equinox, about MAR-21.He died "as a sacrifice for the sins of the world."He was hung on a tree, stake, or cross. After death, he descended into hell.On the third day after his death, he returned to life.

If one does any comparative religious study, one realizes pretty quickly that there is a direct link between all religions in the world, I don't care if you are practicing Shamanism or Hobotism, they have similarities.
