Jesusism - Just Another First Century Mystery Cult

[RoadRunner79]

Sorry, but it seems you are hinging this connection / similarity argument on baptism for those entering the group, and restoration to eternal life.   I don't think you are going to be able to make a very strong correlation here.

Another criticism, along with the fact that mystery religions where not really found in Palestine at the time, is that there is a tendency among supporters of mysticism to collectionize the mystery religions and make them one. And then compare any point that is similar to Christianity. 

I am guessing this is much like a number of arguments for evolution, where if you squint just right, these things look similar enough, and then you only look at what fits, and deny what does not.

A far simpler explanation and one that actually matches history, is that Christianity came out of and is based on Judaism.

So it seems that reading comprehension is not one of your strengths.  You know what?  I doubt you could handle the whole book.  Your head would explode.

If your argument was strong, I would think you would go with that, rather than trying to make things about me.

This does seem like a good place for the arguement from silence.... since you won’t talk about it.... you must not know!
