It is imagination that allows me to still immerse myself in fantasy and enjoy (say) The Lord of the Rings! How dismal life would be without! But to know the difference, EH? To use a parachute? To take penicillin instead of Popoff! What a great name, btw. POP OFF!!!

Of course you did nothing of the sort. You claimed that there are similarities of names between Persian divinities and angels mentioned in the Talmud. I'd let someone Jewish figure out if that's true. Given your gullibility (you assume Hillel was derived from Hellene, after all), I am doubtful about the Metatron-Mitra association. But at any rate, I don't care what the Talmud has in it. Or if there was any influence between the two cultures, which way it went. What does matter to me is the NT, which is older than either the Talmud or the Avesta.
