No one is saying Christian civilization hasn't been shaped by other cultures, particularly the Greek. But claims Christianity is based on Mithraism/Mitra/Mithra is just ignorant.

Pharisees. Their names seems to have derived from the Persian word Parsi/Pharsi,

Yeah, it might seem that if you ignore that the Semitic and Indo-Iranian language groups are unrelated and that Pharisee has a meaning in Hebrew. But hey, I had a friend growing up named Farris ... obviously that family was Iranian or Parsi, except it wasn't.
