I've been reading The Da Vinvi Code. You all should read it. The author does quite a bit of research on Christianity. He talks about how Christianity is a borrowed religion, and a fused religion with pagan beliefs. Here are a few:
Pre-Christian God was Mithras- The son of God nad the Light of the world was born on December 25th, as was Osiris, Adonis, and Dionysys
Egyptian sun discs- became Halos
Isis nursing her miraculously concived son Horus- Mary and jesus
The newborn Krishna was presented with gold, frankincence and myrr
Even more, he talks about the Holy Grail, and that it wasn't the cup, but a person, Mary Magdalen, Jesus's wife.
Mary was not a prostitute but of the Tribe of Benjamin, royal blood, who married Jesus, of the House of David. The marriage brought together the two royal families.
It was constantine, on his deathbed (which is when he converted to christianity) that wrote the bible. He decided which gospels would go in and embelished the ones that would make Jesus look divine, and not human which is what all the other gospels made him out to be.
The word Sangreal (holy grail) derived from Sang Real- Royal blood.
it goes on and on about how the church distorted the view to put down women and change the stories to suit their needs (including the divinity of jesus, which was put to a vote to say whether or not he was divine in the bible).
He also goes on to show that in Da Vinci's The last Supper painting, the apostle to the right hand of Jesus is really Mary Magdaline, and not a man. you can tell by looking at this picture
also, St. Peter is on the right as well (next to Mary, who was supposed to be the true leader of Jesus's church after his death, not St. Peter, again another re-editing by constantine). Look to see how he is holding his hand as if motioning he was going to kill her, the motion i'm sure all of us are aware of, the moving of the hand across the neck to symbolize the cutting of throat. look at the same picture as above to show.
Also look and the hand with now body. it is holding a knife.
also, the original symbol for female was basically a widened V to sybolize a chalice, which is how the Cup of christ being the holy grail got it's start. the symbolism is that mary was the chalice for the blood of christ, meaning their child.
Mary and jesus are also wearing the same color robes and thier seperation brings about the V.. you can see that here:
also, there is not one cup of christ, but 13 glasses, one for each apostle and one for jesus, which da vinci uses to further show the true meaning of Chalice was not the cup being the holy grail.
Really interesting stuff.
