Christ’s features and myths are in many ways similar to those of the Greco-Roman salvation cults of the time known as "mystery religions", each having its own savior god or goddess. Most of these (e.g., Dionysos, Mithras, Attis, Isis, Osiris) were part of myths in which the deity had overcome death in some way, or performed some act which conferred benefits and salvation on their devotees.

The conspiracy puzzle consists of 12 parts. If you refute 1 it falls apart.
The first one is easy. Prophecy in the old testament refers to events in the Gospel.

I have not heard of the Jesus puzzle. I do not see Jesus as a puzzle. The Gospels of Matthew, Marc, Luke, and John show Jesus as who He was when He walked with the Apostles on Earth, and who He is now. If there is a puzzle, then I would say it is the parables that Jesus used, but again, no, He has been pretty clear on how to live ones life, and the rights and wrongs to watch out for.
So, if there is a puzzle, then it is by someone who has a lot of time on his or her hands.

Go for it, or do you actively wish to remain credulous for the rest of your life?

Critical thinking destroys faith, so have at it.
