4) Was caught in a temple as a child questioning the religious leaders of his day
5) Began his ministry at age 30
6) Died a sacrificial death
The misinformed would say, "Oh, that is Jesus, the saviour of mankind!"
But he would be wrong. This list applies to HORUS, the Egyptian 'god' who was worshipped at least 3,000 years B.C.! It's on the internet and in books, look it up.
So this begs the question, where did the biblical stories come from if they are not original? The Sumarian FLOOD account is much older than the bible's. Hmmmm, need to rethink this religion and Bible stuff!

Who said the biblical stories are not original? Did you come to this conclusion by reading Greek mythology? Sweety, Horus the sky god, is an ancient Greek mythological character. Its a fable. Its lore. And concerning the flood, Noah's flood in the bible, it was a world wide event that all civilizations record of in the same time period about 4400 years ago.
You can believe or twist history all you need to but the fact is the bible does not contradict itself ever. Bible and God haters have tried futilely for centuries and yet it still stands.
