Mithra: The pagan christ. Born on December 25 through a god and a mortal virgin in a cave and was brought gifts by three shepards who were led by a star. Mithra preached rebirth and baptized, had 12 helpers, turned water into wine and raised the dead, died during vernal equinox - he was crucified/hung on a tree with two torchbearers, his purpose was to sacrifice sin for others. He was wrapped in linen, anointed with myrhh and resurrected after 3 days, discovered by 3 women.
Why does Jesus sound exactly like Mithra? Even Constantine confused him with Mithra...this is the pagan christ that was known before Jesus...
I'm not trying to offend, I just want to know why...
