No. I am saying Romans first celebrated Mithra's birthday on Dec. 25 and then changed the name from Mithra to Jesus.

I am saying Romans prayed to Mithra on the day of Sun and later they kept the day but changed the name.

I am saying Constantine was a devotee of Mithra, and so when he headed the Council of Nicaea judged what is and is not part of Christianity based on his own Mithraist beliefs.

I am saying nearly all of early Christian works were destroyed and there was no evidence left to contradict what the former high priest of Mithra said is Christianity.

I am saying that Paul, in his attempt to persuade the pagan masses to his side incorporated so much of their beliefs in his sermons that he replaced the movement from reformation of Judaism to something very different that would be palatable to the average pagan.

etc, etc.

These are all very well debated and described in the thread if you care to find out.
