This Mithra nonsense has been debunked too. While there was a religion called Mithraism, most of the stuff atheists claim about it are just lies they made up. BTW the link you posted at the bottom of your post wasn't the link for the material you posted, almost all of which are lies made up by atheists. I call that deliberate deception squared.

Yes, quite true. Christianity was and is just another religion. It has now split into about 35 THOUSAND conflicting sects. Quite idiotic. Adults reading pathetic and childish nonsense and discussing barbarian absurdities with straight faces!

This is one of the weakest of all the epsiodes of Christian apologetics and sets them nowhere apart & unique but proves that all the major religions are an offshoot of previous forms . The so called "ancient history of the Jews" up to the Persian conquest of Babylonia are mostly colorful fictions based on Biblical references that are as reliable as any folktale of the Vikings or the Ancient Greek Trojan Horses & Hercules Odyseus or . Most anything that can be termed "reliable history" we really don't find until 600bc approximately but one thing we do know for sure is the above . Christianity another of a long line of cult religions rising to prominence in changing Empires tied to earlier forms . Evolution of evolving forms ...
