Do you agree that Jesus = Horus?

Question

Why is it not obvious to people that Jesus is simply the continuation of the Egyptian god Horus, respun for Jews via Old Testament exegesis? Even the birth story is straight out of astrotheology. Revelation is also obviously astrotheological.

Most historians will not admit this, but, most historians are Christians, so I wouldn't expect them to be unbiased on this point. They start with the assumption Jesus was god incarnate and go from there, so of course they are never going to reach the straightforward conclusion.

This knowledge has existed for well over a 100 years, long before the Zeitgeist movie began to popularize it.

Answer 1

Let's see:
Horus
–noun Egyptian Religion.
a solar deity, regarded as either the son or the brother of Isis and Osiris, and usually represented as a falcon or as a man with the head of a falcon.

Jesus
–noun
1. Also called Jesus Christ, Christ Jesus, Jesus of Nazareth. born 4? b.c., crucified a.d. 29?, the source of the Christian religion.
2. (“the Son of Sirach”) the author of the Apocryphal book of Ecclesiasticus, who lived in the 3rd century b.c.
3. Christian Science. the supreme example of
God's nature expressed through human beings.


. . . . . . . . . . . . . no, sorry, I just don't see it. Maybe some other random thing, like apple?

Apple
–noun
1. the usually round, red or yellow, edible fruit of a small tree, Malus sylvestris, of the rose family.
2. the tree, cultivated in most temperate regions.
3. the fruit of any of certain other species of tree of the same genus.
4. any of these trees.
5. any of various other similar fruits, or fruitlike products or plants, as the custard apple, love apple, May apple, or oak apple.
6. anything resembling an apple in size and shape, as a ball, esp. a baseball.
7. Bowling. an ineffectively bowled ball.
8. Slang. a red capsule containing a barbiturate, esp. secobarbital.


no, not there either. Maybe if you look long enough and . . . . put on some rose colored glasses you will see whatever the hell you want?

Answer 2

This knowledge has been around for longer than 100 years. Way back in the second century AD the pagans were pointing out that Christians had not only stolen most of their ideas from older religions, but had also managed to mis-interpret most of the stories told by those earlier religions.

The Christians remained a joke for about 400 years until they gained political power and silenced the opposition.

Answer 3

I don't know how to answer this. I respect Horus and I respect Jesus who was a man, a prophet and certain an ascended master, but I don't think he was Horus. Jesus was more like Osiris, died and risen like the Sun each night and morning.

Answer 4

It's clear that Jesus was based on Horus and other earler deities, however it would be false to say that they are the SAME thing. It's like saying Christmas = Yule. Yes, the Christians adapted us pagans' Yule for their own purposed, but they're not the same- they celebrate two similar, but separate things.

Answer 5

Most Christians aren't willing to look outside their Bible or those who agree with the bible.

I agree - Jesus as a savior = myth based on Horus and several other deities of the day.

Answer 6

Jesus is Jesus ^^ He is not the continuation of the Egyptian god horus... Do you have the prove?

It's all about faith, believe something that you couldn't see but know it's the truth *He is the way, the life and the truth*.. sometimes, it's hard to prove it..

Answer 7

It makes sense.
Isis = Mary

Answer 8

Possibly in part, but don't forget Mithras...Another Killed/Resurrected god...

Answer 9

Hosea 13:4
4Yet I [am] the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for [there is] no saviour beside me. (KJV)

Answer 10

I agree with that.
