No problem, TheKing. You are THE KING.
So about Dionysus, what is it that makes you believe the Jesus character was copied from him?
Oh, and stop listening to girls. They know not what they say.

:P:Pi know that there are few similarities for each individual one but each one has an aspect of Jesus in them and when they are counted together you see that Jesus has all their characteristics make up the same ones as Jesus i just wanted to clear that up because i am very much aware that i can have difficulties sharing my ideas in a clear concise manner im working on fixing it
Dionysus is the God of Wine and Fertility(rain basically) and transubstantiation(water to wine) is actually a big part of the Dionysus worship calling wine Dionysus's creation

all these ancient myths of the ancient Gods were around LONG before Christianity and as i said Jesus is the culmination of MOST of these myths

Seen this one before.
What I want you to do is post any link that points to any historical evidence that supports the idea that Jesus was a mythological character influenced by earlier mythological characters and that his story as depicted in the Bible is an adapted version of earlier mythological stories before him.
By the way, one of my Aspie obsessions in the past was Greek/Roman Mythology, so I'm very confident in my arguments here. Be well prepared.
Oh man I wish I had my notebook from my mythology class.. it was all based precisely on that. Our teacher took the biggest stories in the bible and traced them back all the way to ancient babylon and sumeria... how they were the same story re-told.. the same ritual/worshiping methods were re-integrated into the new religion... it was fascinating stuff.

King, my dear, it's not enough to make speculations and post links to speculations of other people who live in the same age as you and I.
We need historical evidence - evidence (dating back before Jesus' time) that reveal the claims that you yourself have been making.
What historical evidence do we have related to the beliefs of the ancient people concerning Dionysus?

Please ... some historical evidence. No more personal life stories and no more appeal to teachers who are not necessarily historians or scholars.
