Challenging the Zeitgeist Movie: Alleged Parallels between Jesus and Ancient Pagan Religions
In recent years "The Zeitgeist Movie" has been making the rounds on the internet claiming that the Gospel portrayals of Jesus are works of fiction based on the myths of earlier pagan religions. The film has led many Christians to question their faith. In the film several parallels are drawn between Jesus and the pagan gods Horus, Attis, Krishna, Dionysius, and Mithra. On the basis of these alleged parallels it is claimed that all of these myths are derived from solar worship and that the gospel accounts of Jesus are not history, but just another version of the solar myth. This talk will challenge this argument and demonstrate the fallaciousness of such reasoning.
