Jesus Christ probably believed he was the son of god. His mother claimed the Holy Spirit came to her leading to the Immaculate Conception. The story is eerily similar to the story of Danae. Zeus impregnated her as a golden rain leading to Perseus’ birth. Likewise, the Holy Spirit showered itself upon the virgin. Mary had to have known some variation of the story and modified it once she became pregnant by Joseph or some other man. The white lie eventually led to Jesus’ death.

Jesus knew he was special. His family had to have recounted the Immaculate Conception to him. As a result, he took up his birthright as Caesar and Alexander before him. Perhaps he even decided to become the son of god in response to Augustus’ similar claim. Either way, he became an itinerant rabbi and eventually decided to play the Messiah role. The Romans executed him thinking the Jewish Messiah akin to Spartacus.

Immaculate Conception occurred all the time in the ancient world. It is woven throughout mythology and history. Alexander, Augustus, Julius Caesar, and Jesus Christ all claimed to be the offspring of deities. The claim helped justify their roles in society. It also immunized young women and their babies from sanction and stigma.
