Neither of them were real. Also [quote]Horus: Birth witnessed by shepherds. Jesus: Birth witnessed by shepherds.[/quote] My birth was witnessed by doctors. So was my best friends, ergo we are the same person!

Interesting. inb4 religious shitstorm. [highlight](User was banned for this post ("inb4" - ventilated))[/highlight]

[QUOTE=Victor Leferve;17052028]Neither of them were real.[/QUOTE] :ssh:

[QUOTE=Victor Leferve;17052028]Neither of them were real.[/QUOTE] I think Jesus was a real dude. Dunno about Horus, but doubt it since he was half animal or some shit.

[QUOTE=Victor Leferve;17052028]Neither of them were real.[/QUOTE] I have to disagree. I for one, believe in Jesus. But that it just me. [b]BRING ON THE DISAGREES AND DUMBS.[/b]

oh my god

[QUOTE=Victor Leferve;17052028]Neither of them were real.[/QUOTE] Both were real, neither had magic powers. :eng101:

Horus, you say!? I just got an ankh yesterday.

What has the world come to, religeons have lost their originality :sigh: Well except for that one that claims humans are sweat babies.

[QUOTE=exhale55;17052056]I have to disagree. I for one, believe in Jesus. But that it just me. [b]BRING ON THE DISAGREES AND DUMBS.[/b][/QUOTE] Not from me, I respect your opinion.

[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;17052081]Horus, you say!? I just got an ankh yesterday.[/QUOTE] May Horus be with you.

[QUOTE=ZomBuster;17052137]Nothing new there, most religions work that way. Easiest example: Christianity and Islam.[/QUOTE] Are you dense? Those are extremely similar because they're two different versions of the same religion. Not copies of one another.

All religions are based on earlier religions which are based on earlier religions which are based on some true events or experiences which were twisted up. Christianity is just lots of bits stolen of old religions and smashed together into some kind of new religion.

I'm fairly sure that the entire notion of Christianity is based on one bloke's drunken hijinx. Then over time its evolved into lore, then truth, then worshipped with the obedience similar to that of a dog.

Which furthers my point that Christianity is bullshit. I respect your opinion and beliefs but sometimes it's really hard when the evidence is right there.

What do people think it was that Jesus was starting? A carpenter, a prostitute, and twelve random people went around telling people that the carpenter was the son of God.

It was a much simpler time back then, with much simpler people who probably ate all the shit up about souls and things. I'm not one to judge, but its a fucking shambles.

This whole thread is pretty much copypasta from Zeitgeist.

Try comparing pictures of "God" (old man white beard etc.) with Zeus. Same experience. However, a nice accumulation of facts, nice thread, I like it.

Hey, OP, you should add Mithra to the list.

islamic tolerance patrol is in this thread making people tolerant

Jesus is Horus' alt

[QUOTE=Cheezy;17052650]This whole thread is pretty much copypasta from Zeitgeist.[/QUOTE] What are you talking about? I took things I already knew, found some other things off of different websites, and listed them off. I hadn't even heard of Zeitgeist before today. It's not like they're the only source for this kind of thing.

[B]Differences:[/B] Horus: Fake Jesus: Real

[QUOTE=GerardV2;17052761][B]Differences:[/B] Horus: Fake Jesus: Real[/QUOTE] Horus came first. Sorry to burst your bubble but Jesus is a rip off, enjoy your shitty religion. Jesus is like the Chinese rip off of the Wii.

I believe that Jesus was real, He just had nothing to do with a 'God' and people blew his story up.

Am I the only one who expected badage boys spam?

[b]BRING ON THE DISAGREES AND DUMBS.[/b][/QUOTE] Class, there's absolutely no evidence to suggest this person existed except a book, so we can assume he wasn't real.
