ISIS, OSIRIS and Horus: the Egyptian Holy Trinity as ICONOGRAPHY for CHRISTIANITY

Egypt had developed the concepts of  ETERNAL LIFE, RESURRECTION,
JUSTICE,  humility, balance & harmony within the cosmos,  and the search for truth and wisdom
 THOUSANDS of years before Christianity... or even Judaism arrived on the scene.

The Christian adoption of Egyptian myth. How early Christianity grafted the Egyptian Isis - Osiris symbols and stories on to the newly forming Christian religion.
It also explains the basis of Agnostic Beliefs in a simple and easy to understand form……

Indeed, Judaism - which was only codified as we know it today (i.e. the bible was written only )
after King Nebuchadnezer conquered Jerusalem and took as hostages the Judeo nobles, priests, scribes, and elites back to Babylon in 587 B.C.  - by comparison with ancient Egyptian culture,  Judaism Babylon, Assyria, much less Rome, Greece and Christianity are all "recent" developments...

As we outlined in our previous, life in ancient Egypt was a struggle to wrest life sustaining nourishment from a fickle and often hostile environment... a harsh, desert environment that was transformed in to a sweet, green, 1,000 mile oasis by the life-giving waters of the Nile river.
 The contest between the very human desire for eternal life, compared to the eternal struggle nature of life here & now, is the foundation theme of all religions - eternal life for humans, modeled idealistically on gods whose lives are over, far above, and far beyond mere mortal lives...
while, ironically,  all the gods of humans on earth (including the "one true god") are actually based on our lives and mental faculties;  that is we "project" ourselves on to the heavens, and see anthropomorphic - HUMAN LIKE - god(s) reflected back on us.

-----------------------------------------------------

 here, an even more dramatic restatement of

"almost everything in Christianity, and Judaism 
was PRECEDED by similar themes, stories, myths, and beliefs in ANCIENT EGYPTIAN civilization, religion, & culture... THOUSANDS of years before the Jews, Greeks, and Romans, much less Christians appeared in the Mediterranean world..."
