  44. Peter Joseph, Zeitgeist, http:\/\/zeitgeistmovie.com\/http:\/\/vimeo.com\/13726978. In the YouTube documentary, Zeitgeist, Peter Joseph uses hand-picked sources (Gerald Massey and Acharya S.), attempting to build a case that Jesus is a \u201ccopycat\u201d of the ancient Egyptian god, Horus. Regarding Zeitgeist\u2019s sources, Dr. Ben Witherington notes, \u201cNot a single one of these authors and sources are experts in the Bible, Biblical history, the Ancient Near East, Egyptology, or any of the cognate fields\u2026.they are not reliable sources of information about the origins of Christianity, Judaism, or much of anything else of relevance to this discussion.\u201d http:\/\/benwitherington.blogspot.com\/2007\/12\/zeitgeist-of-zeitgeist-movie.html. The alleged parallels between Jesus and Horus are analyzed and systematically refuted in the following website:http:\/\/kingdavid8.com\/Copycat\/JesusHorus.html.<\/li>\n
  45. Lee Strobel, The Case for the Real Jesus<\/em> (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 2007), 170-71. Mithraism developed too late to have influenced Christianity. \u201cMithraism was a late Roman mystery religion that became a chief rival to Christianity in the second century and later.\u201d Quoted in Strobel, 166-76.<\/li>\n

  48. Habermas and Licona, 90.<\/li>\n
  49. Ibid.<\/li>\n
  50. Quoted in Strobel, 160-61. [In his interview with Strobel, Michael Licona states that Mettinger takes exception to that nearly universal scholarship by claiming that there are at least three and possibly as many as five dying and rising gods that predate Christianity. However, after combing through all these accounts and critically analyzing them Mettinger adds that “none of these serve as parallels to Jesus.” Mettinger writes, “There is, as far as I am aware, no prima facie evidence that the death and resurrection of Jesus is a mythological construct, drawing on the myths and rites of the dying and rising gods of the surrounding world.\u2026 The death and resurrection of Jesus retains its unique character in the history of religions.”]<\/li>\n
  51. Quoted in Chuck Colson, \u201cJesus Christ and Harry Potter,\u201d Breakpoint<\/em>, July 29, 2011, http:\/\/www.breakpoint.org\/bpcommentaries\/entry\/13\/17568.<\/li>\n
