I can't tell you most of them without watching the video again, which would sicken me to do. However, just from memory, Christians do not believe that Jesus was born on December 25. And then of course the TF has not been proven a forgery. It makes a slew of claims regarding other religions which I have never been able to verify, and which I suspect are similarly erroneous.

Even if there weren't so many glaring, immediately-recognized factual inaccuracies therein, I still wouldn't used an unsourced, dubious youtube-type video to educate myself. There are plenty of accurate resources for debunking Christianity on the web.

Perhaps someone else is bored enough to watch the thing again and list the errors more completely. I am not that person, however.

On that particular topic, the similarity of Christianity to pre-existing mysticism, I really don't know of any specific sources. Generally, though, you'll want to look for something from a reputable author or authors, and with appropriate citations.

well if anyone knmows good accurate sources on the web or otherwise, feel free to post them up. the people on archarya s's forums think she is a goddess, by the way. I wish she was as right as they say. who knows...

It's all just a coincidence. Of course there is absolutely no connection between any solar religions and Christianity.

Even Justin thought this was the case...

I hate it when they say "God's sun", when the words "sun" and "son" are only similar in English. They never actually make this connection, but the way in which they say it is clearly meant to give this impression. This is a big turn off, so I haven't bothered watching the rest yet.

God's son is the light of the world. Better?

That would annoy me too. It suggests dishonesty; awareness that it isn't true but a willingness to insinuate it and place no barrier to the impression that the unwary will get from it. I've certainly seen the link made explicitly by some of their hapless victims online.

All the best,

If that's a "hapless victim" what does that make someone who's been totally fleeced into believing Jesus' resurrection?

Certainly we should feel some annoyance towards this poor fellows predicament as well?

so the astrotheology is BS for the most part?
