Wolfgang! I wish people would read messages properly! I said that "The Jesus Myteries" would be a good place to start. And, I would challenge anyone out there to read that book objectively and not start to question things. Feke and Gandy do present their info in a dramatic way, for example, who is this a description of ? :-
   a. God made flesh, the saviour and son of God
   b. His father is God his mother a mortal virgin
   c. He is born in a cowshed on Dec 25, Shepherds stood around
   d. He offers his followers the chance to be reborn again
      through the rites of baptism
   e. He miraculously turns water into wine at a marriage
      ceremony
   f. He dies a Eastertime as a sacrifice for the sins of the world
    g. He roses from the dead and ascended into heaven
   h. His followers await his return as the judge during the
      Last Days
   i. His death and resurrection are celebrated by a ritual meal
      of bread and wine which symbolize his body and blood.
Who is this a profile of? The Greek god/man Dionysus who, of course, "lived" hundreds of years before Christ was supposed to have lived.
   Now come on.....
