What is the definition of a Christian?

[okasha]

28. Actually, gods that are "very similar to the story of Jesus"

are pretty rare. Most of the deities that share the dying-and-rising narrative are explicitly vegetation gods. They don't die to redeem sinners; they die and are renewed with the cycle of the seasons and the harvest. Usually the death takes place in the fall and the revival in spring.

The similarities claimed by such academic frauds as S. Acharya (sp?) are figments of the hucksters' own imagination, peddled to the gullible. Just for an example, she claimed several years ago that "Horus was crucified between two thieves." Now, the fact is that there is not one single word in Egyptian literature that substantiates her assertion. After many years of being called on her bs, she now claims that oh, no, she never really meant "crucified" as in pinned to a cross to die--she meant "portrayed standing with his arms extended holding an ankh." The other alleged parallels fail just as badly.
