Jesus was fathered by God, the Almighty, the Sovereign of the Universe. The Creator of Heaven and Earth.
Hercules is pagan and and has nothing to do with Jehovah God, Almighty. "The god's" are from mythology. God had no beginning.

Yes, but Jesus had a life before coming to earth. Befor that he lived with his Father in the spirit realm. Jesus owed his life to his Father. At John 6:57, he said: "I live because of the Father." At John 10:36, Jesus said: "I am God's Son."

One difference is, the Jesus story was written later.
The Jesus story borrows from various savior-god stories, but there are common elements in all. Compare the Jesus story to Osiris, Mithra, Zoroaster, Horus, etc.

Jesus isn't an action figure. He preaches peace and understanding. Hercules kicks a$$ at every opportunity.

Jesus is God. He is the Word which became flesh. Right the way it is told in the OT.
