| Aren’t there some striking parallels between the Jesus and Hesus stories? |
| You can probably already guess why skeptics are fond of this Celtic god.
Note the similarity of the names. Pretty open-and-shut, huh?
Of course, the skeptics conveniently forget that both are the English
pronunciations. Comparing the actual original names of these two figures,
we have Esus and Yeshua, two names which bear little resemblence. Okay,
so let's go onto the comparisons in their stories. Skeptics claim that
Hesus was born of a virgin, and that he was crucified with a lamb on one
side and an elephant on the other (I guess I better check my bible on where
the elephant is in the Jesus story). Actually, neither are true.
Hesus was a barbaric warrior god fond of suspending his victims on
trees, wounding them, then reading omens in the patterns of their spurting
blood. No virgin birth, no crucifixion, no resurrection, no comparisons
to Jesus.
