    Hello everybody

    Who am I describing here:

    - I am God made flesh, the Saviour and the 'Son of God'

    - My father is God and my mother is a mortal Virgin.

    - I was born in a humble cave on 25th December before three shephards

    - These shephards came to me with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.

    - I offer my followers the chance to be born again through baptism.

    - I turned water into wine at a marriage ceremony

    - I rode into town on a donkey while people waved palm branches to honour me.

    - I died at eastertime as a sacrifice for the sins of the world.

    - After my death, on the third day, I risen from the dead and ascended to heaven with glory

    - My followers await my return as judge on the last day

    - My death and resurrection are celebrated by a meal of bread and wine which symbolize my body and blood.

    Who am I?

    I am a legend, a mystery Godman who appeared in many forms under many names thousands of years before the birth of Jesus. Can any Christian explain to me why?

    Osiris, Dionysus, Attis, Mithras, Bacchus, Adonis, and/or Jesus. That is, according to Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy.

    What do I win?

    Ironically you win a copy of 'The Jesus Mysteries' by, believe it or not, Timothy Freak and the other guy. Well done!

    what is your opinion of the book?

    Still mulling it over. However, since I have a copy, perhaps I could donate the one from you to the tenth poster on this thread?

    Hey, ((((Monkey))))! You don't want a copy? It is a good read. Raises some interesting thoughts, in my opinion.
