Can someone show how the mythology is a lie/copying christianity?

Question

Can someone post something show how these websites are wrong? Its a website saying that christianity is copied from greek mythology in many ways and people talk about on here.

My idea is that the devil has known from the start what would take place and wanted these myths to be told by interaction with humans just to cause problems later on.

Yes but evolution has no transitional fossils it is a lie.

Answer 1

The Sumerian tale of the Flood proves that Noah really lived. There are far too many flood tales for it to be a coincidence and that is ONLY one example.

Answer 2

So many religious people use that "Satan knew in advance" argument.

It is their only defense against being shown to be liars.

Why is it so hard to accept that humans think in similar ways no matter where they are in history and will copy each others beliefs and thoughts in new creative ways to advance their own agendas.

Any time anyone comes up with a new way of doing something or improves an old idea it is hailed as an advancement. Unless it is in religion, then it is blasphemy, and a religious war is started to kill or drive out anyone who disagrees.

Christians are relatively new in terms of world history so they discredit the past by saying the past was planned in advance.

Makes sense, the future of the world is so obviously secure with all these brainwashed idiots running around killing for their Gods. (Sarcasm for those of you who are a little slow)

Edit: It is interesting that you state evolution has no transitional fossils so it must be a lie.
Does that mean that since the Bible doesn't mention dinosaurs it also is a lie?
Or are you and people like you so brainwashed that you believe the Devil made up the dinosaurs and their remains to test your faith?

Answer 3

lulz, take a class called 'myths in human culture.' You'll read about all kinds of creation myths and flood myths. In fact, the epic of gilgamesh inspired the story of noah..and the epic of gilgamesh is the oldest written story on the earth. Let me find my old textbook and I'll write you down some titles.

Creation Myths
Creation Myths of India
There Was Nothing
The Thoughts of Brahma
Brahma is Lonely
The Creation Myth of Iran
The Norse Creation Myth
Greek Creation Myths
Eurynome and Ophion
Geia and Uranus
The Birth of The Gods
Creation Myths of Africa
The Yoruba
The Three People and The Statue
And that list goes on and on, look on this page for more

Flood Myths
Manu and The Fish
Utnapishtim
The Human Race is Saved (Iroquois)
Tata and Nena
Deucalion
and again, on and on. Can't find a link like I could for the creation myths though. But I suggest buying a copy of "Parallel Myths" by J. F. Bierlein

Answer 4

If the story of Noah is true, then it would follow that the various myths found throughout the world have the same source for their foundations--Noah. Passing down the ideas, stories, beliefs, etc from one generation to another would cause corruptions to enter into them. The further from the source, the greater the corruption can be. This would occur when the various families grew further apart from each other so that "corrections" can be made. I believe that if one were to study the commonalities one would see that there is a basic core to be found in all religions. the question then becomes, which one is correct.

Answer 5

"the devil has known from the start what would take place and wanted these myths to be told by interaction with humans just to cause problems later on."

You know this is a common idea among religious people to explain evidence of evolution. It seems very... convenient.

Answer 6

The early Christians knew that the Jews were far too faithful to God to be tricked into worshiping a human being. Therefore, they concentrated their attention on the pagans (basically everyone but the Jews). In order to attract pagans to Christianity, they made Christianity a pagan (non-monotheistic) religion with a menu of divinities and semi-divinities to choose from. For example, Jesus, the holy spirit, God, Satan, the angels. The pagans were very attracted to Christianity because of its pagan characteristics. The Jews refused to turn a human being into an idol (idolatry), refused to practice paganism, and remained steadfast in their monotheistic faith in God.

Answer 7

It is no surprise that Christianity is hardly 'original' and that various ideas are from other cultures, etc etc etc.

In "Suns of God" Acharya gives her view about Jesus, etc...
Although a book, there is a video lecture by her.

And similarly check out Jordan's Maxwell video lecture "Sons of God" Those who from heaven to earth came. It is also enlightening.

We should all take note of what earlier civilisations - the Bible has in effect copied from.

Answer 8

Unfortunately for you, they're not wrong.

It's common knowledge anyway that a lot of Christian traditions had pagan origins. For example, paying respects to and decorating a tree on Christmas (Winter Solstice). Even the church doesn't deny this.

Answer 9

That's the most twisted logic I've heard all day.
