By around 1500 BCE, Mithra worship had made it to the Near East...............
Mithras and Christ were described as 'the Way,' 'the Truth,' 'the Light,' 'the Life,' 'the Word,' 'the Son of God,' 'the Good Shepherd.'
Mithras is often represented as carrying a lamb on his shoulders, just as Jesus is and midnight services were found in both religions.
Mithra's virgin mother...was like the virgin mother Mary while Petra, the sacred rock of Mithraism, became Peter, the foundation of the Christian Church
Mithra took birth on December 25th and was born of [a] Virgin. He travelled far and wide and has twelve disciples....His symbol is the Lamb...
Mithra is depicted as a sun disc in a chariot drawn by white horses, another solar motif that made it into the Jesus myth, in which Christ is to return on a white horse. (Rev 6:2; 19:11)
Mithra has the following in common with the Jesus character:
Sir Arthur Weigall says:
December 25th was really the date, not of the birth of Jesus, but of the sun-god Mithra. Horus, son of Isis, however, was in very early times identified with Ra, the Egyptian sun-god, and hence with Mithra...
"The 25 December was observed as his birthday, the natalis invicti, the rebirth of the winter-sun, unconquered by the rigours of the season."
Actually it's Mithra who is a rip-off from Jesus.
And they could be the same person who travelled to different places at different period of time and different audience remembered Jesus in different ways, mannerism, pronounciation of Jesus's name.
It's not like there were a common language like English back then.
aiyah..........go on bluffing yourself lah..........
anyway all these not important.........when you realize there's no such thing as a permanent self or soul..........that's when you know all religions are man-made..............hence all the flaws and loopholes in the so-called ''teachings''..........
Don't know who is still trying to deny the existence of GOD and using his human might and strength to bluff his way that GOD does not exist.
But it's a clear fact that name changes and differs from country to country due to difference in languages.
Still you are still unable to point out the so-called flaws and loopholes and do you know why?
Because you're trying to use your human brain to defy a religion that has existed since thousands of years ago.
And your lack of experience with GOD is really the real reason why you are a disbeliever of GOD.
Religion can be written by man, but GOD has set HIMSELF inside every heart and soul of every men and women when HE blew a breath of life into Adam and Eve.
And therefore all Humans inherited LIFE from GOD and we are all part and inheritance of GOD.

If you study bible carefully,The Heavenly Father(god not Jesus) is a man after all who existed in the Old Testament times.
jus ignore asromanista dude, hes spouting crap as usual, half the time not understanding what he posts at all ^^
lol...x2...humans live life based on expriences, both gd and bad...actually, if u tink of it, no-experience is a form of experience too...its based on a no-exprience experience tat some doubt the existence of things, in this case, God...many christians follow God cos of an affirmative experience wif Him...

Mithra has the following in common with the Jesus character:
Mithra was born on December 25th of virgin birth. The babe was placed in a manger and attended by shepherds. He was a great traveling teacher and master. He had 12 companions or "disciples." He performed miracles. Mithra sacrificed himself for world peace. He ascended to heaven. Mithra was viewed as the Good Shepherd, the "Way, the Truth and the Light," the Redeemer, the Savior, the Messiah. Mithra is omniscient, as he "hears all, sees all, knows all: none can deceive him." He was identified with both the Lion and the Lamb. His sacred day was Sunday, "the Lord's Day," hundreds of years before the appearance of Christ. His religion had a eucharist or "Lord's Supper." Mithra "sets his marks on the foreheads of his soldiers." Mithraism emphasized baptism.

A donkey has 2 eyes, 1 mouth, 1 nose and 2 ears. You also have 2 eyes, 1 mouth, 1 nose and 2 ears. So this means you are a donkey right?
C'mon, you know from your research (unless you didn't even bother to research and just swallowed someone's crap wholesale) that there are several fundamental differences between Mithraism and Christianity.
But then again, no surprises how you once again only focus on what supports your personal agenda and ignore everything else. Sigh.
when you all realize there's no such thing as a permanent self or soul.......
that's when you realize all religions are man-made........
we are all just streams of thoughts..........that deluded ourselves into believing we have souls.........nothing more................

You will never be convinced unless you were dead before.
Have you died before?
The Matrix is calling you, take the BLUE Pill please.
the truth is that no one was ever born and no one ever died...............
the so-called birth and death in this reality is just an illusion...........
just as physical reality is just an illusion.............
that's why scientists are now saying the universe is just a hologram.............and there's no physical reality
becoz the protons and electrons that made up an atom are themselves not made up of anything that's physical..............
even the bastard Einstein said that time itself is an illusion.............

Einstein said that because he could see the end of his time when he mentioned it.
Do you think Einstein have no real dreams to do something that he really wanted to do in his lifetime?
Einstein didn't want to be the scientist that everyone remembered him for, it was everyone's wish that Einstein continued down the path of science for their greater selfish gains.
Only a small percentage of science were put into use for the good of all mankind. The greatest discoveries of science were being put into use for the destruction of all mankind.
Not that insignificant people like yourself and many in here are particularly concerned about anyway.
Afterall, most of you are just anti-PAP and learning how to become civilised traitors to your own country.

Nothing wrong in illusions replying to illusions.
Don't you also talk to those illusions in your dreams?

Is it your first time? Like you always imagined yourself like a virgin in your dream?

But I agree with him.Christmas is a pagan holiday which is the birthday of Mithra adopted for traditional Jesus's bithday.
Originally posted by Eighties:But I agree with him.Christmas is a pagan holiday which is the birthday of Mithra adopted for traditional Jesus's bithday.
No...Christmas is obviously a Christian holiday to remember the birth of Jesus Christ.
And it's the time of the year for Santa Claus to climb down your chimmeys or down the HDB rubbish chute into your home to give you presents.
Who is Mithra? Son of Mothra??
Anyway, anything that is not Christians are all created by the lazy Pagans who just want to have most holidays than any other religions....LOL!!!

all the absurd quotes from the Bible enough to perk up your.............life............LOL

Probably created by absurd Christians and non-Christians alike.
go read the quotes in the bible and you'll find all these absurdity...........
Originally posted by Asromanista2001:go read the quotes in the bible and you'll find all these absurdity...........
Just reading the quotes out of the Bible itself without understanding is already an absurd behavior.
You need to understand what the Bible is talking about first.
I believe it's the same for all religious scriptures, just reading and quoting it without understanding is an absurd behaviour.
I don't encourage anyone to do that, unless they themselves are already an absurd person in real life or in sgforums.
Thank your GOD that I was gentle with my cane.
