Zeitgeist DEBUNKED: The Messiah Is Not A Copy Of Pagan deities

This videos addresss the claim that the story of Yahusha (falsely known as “Jesus”) was a knock-off, plagiarism, or amalgamation of other 'dying and rising deities of the pagan world. Zeitgeist, Religulous, and sensationalist blogs online often state that the person of MessiH is just a mishmash of stories that came before him. The Messiah is often compared to Horus, Mithra, Dionysus, and others, and it is said that the early Christians adopted these stories and incorporated them into their formulation of the story of The Messiah. This idea is not taken seriously by academic scholars.

"The alleged parallels between JC and the “pagan” savior-deities in most instances reside in the modern imagination: We do not have accounts of others who were born to virgin mothers and who died as an atonement for sin and then were raised from the dead (despite what the sensationalists claim ad nauseum in their propagandized versions).” - Bart Ehrman, Atheist Professor of Religious Studies at UNC
