@shortstories @VeganMGTOW The truth is somewhere in the middle. The author of the video is right that Jesus isn't a carbon copy of any other single god, however he IS an amalgamation of different ideas from other pre-existing religions.
The video only focuses on the differences between these stories and omits the many similarities, which were even acknowledged by the early Christians, as seen in "The First Apology".
"And when we say also that (...) Jesus Christ, our Teacher, was crucified and died, and rose again, and ascended into heaven, we propound nothing different from what you believe regarding those whom you esteem sons of Jupiter. (...) Mercury, the interpreting word and teacher of all; Æsculapius, who, though he was a great physician, was struck by a thunderbolt, and so ascended to heaven; and Bacchus too, after he had been torn limb from limb; (...)"
@shortstories @VeganMGTOW If rebirth/resurrection weren't already in these religions, Christians wouldn't have used these arguments to convince them.

These are all just stories and obviously they had to come from somewhere. To pretend Christianity is somehow unique and true, is to be willfully blind.
Use common sense and the truth becomes obvious.
