You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice. If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice. You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill; I will choose a path that's clear- I will choose Free Will.

I need it. I'm not a Christian, I'm a Baha'i and my wife is It makes no difference to me if we celebrate the birth of Jesus or Mithra. Every year at work I consider making a Mithra poster for my work area but so far I have always backed out at the last minute.
Don't be silly. These were useful traditions, they were adopted by Christianity to keep people's local traditions while slowly incorporating aspects of Christian belief.It was a stroke of genius.

In addition, it's said that because Jesus was never presented to peoples before he was born that God is unjust and their condemnation is unjust. Maybe he has been here before. Maybe God's message has been shared in Mithras, Horus, etc. Maybe they have all been given the chance.
You may be proving Jesus to be real and divine... Look at how many things Mithras and Jesus had in common. Or Horus and Jesus. This list is extensive.
Sure, you could go with the mundane explanation and assume they borrowed it, but maybe he HAD been on Earth before? You could be pointing that out. Never know.
I'm not religious, but I find these question arguments rather silly because they consider only one possibility.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
