Mithras you mean?

ZeroCool is looking at Krishna and sees Christ as being a copy of him. It is just as reasonable to look at the similarities between Christ and Mithra and Krishna, and Hercules, and Mexitli, and the Savior-figures from hundreds of far-flung places, and see all of these coming from a common original Messianic body of prophecy, given to man in earliest antiquity.

Whether you believe in Jesus or not, you might be interested in these articles (one after another on the same page) about the development of the stories associated with the constellations and the common origin of all prophecies involving a coming savior.

Well, the Mithra event was not historical, where the latter was.

Also, Mithraic studies have not found substantive connections between Mithraism and Christianity (save artistic practices) until the 3rd century AD, just so you are in the loop. This was stated and published in an international conference of Mithraic scholars in 1975.

The legend of Mithras predates Christianity but much of it was added after Christ. So they basically took an old dead belief and added aspects of Christianity to it. Your mithras myth stole from the reality of Christianity

The former. I think you meant Mithra, though.

AND:

--Krishna was born of the Virgin Devaki (“Divine One”) on December 25.
--His earthly father was a carpenter, who was off in the city paying tax while Krishna was born.
--His birth was signaled by a star in the east and attended by angels and shepherds, at which time he was presented with spices.
--The heavenly hosts danced and sang at his birth.
--He was persecuted by a tyrant who ordered the slaughter of thousands of infants.
--Krishna was anointed on the head with oil by a woman whom he healed.
--He is depicted as having his foot on the head of a serpent.
--He worked miracles and wonders, raising the dead and healing lepers, the deaf and the blind.
--Krishna used parables to teach the people about charity and love, and he “lived poor and he loved the poor.”
--He castigated the clergy, charging them with “ambition and hypocrisy . . . Tradition says he fell victim to their vengeance.”
--Krishna’s “beloved disciple” was Arjuina or Ar-jouan (Jouhn).
--He was transfigured in front of his disciples.
--He gave his disciples the ability to work miracles.
--His path was “strewn with branches.”
--In some traditions he died on a tree or was crucified between two thieves.
--Krishna was killed around the age of 30, and the sun darkened at his death.
--He rose from the dead and ascended to heaven “in the sight of all men.”
--He was depicted on a cross with nail-holes in his feet, as well as having a heart emblem on his clothing.
--Krishna is the “lion of the tribe of Saki.”
--He was called the “Shepherd of God” and considered the “Redeemer,” “Firstborn,” “Sin-Bearer,” “Liberator,” “Universal Word.”
--He was deemed the “Son of God” and “our Lord and Savior,” who came to earth to die for man’s salvation.
--He was the second person of the Trinity.
--His disciples purportedly bestowed upon him the title “Jezeus,” or “Jeseus,” meaning “pure essence.”
--Krishna is to return to judge the dead, riding on a white horse, and to do battle with the “Prince of Evil,” who will desolate the earth.

I learned recently, those are 2 of many. Several were born of virgins too. Imagine that! What a coincidence.

No savior, just dead men.

Sorry.
