If we put it in a pagan context yes.
But the intent of the Christian mythology is that his death was the savior of the world.
In the past 100 years it has simply become a corporate marketing scam to get people to buy crap they don't need.
The motifs of rebirth and fertility and season change far pre date Christian mythology.
The only thing the Jesus mythology really did replace animal sacrifice.
