Yes, I agree with you. I have read a book by Dan Brown, " angels and demons " , where a professor , who is the hero of the story, states in a history class that December 25 , which is considered as the birthday of Christ, was originally a Roman fertility festival , and the Roman officials incorporated their festivals and ideas into Christianity.
However , I wish to know whether there are similarities between Horus's teachings and Jesus's teachings , just as there are similarities between Jesus's teachings and hindu-buddhist teachings.
I believe it is Jesus's teachings that define him, and not the various legends about him.
