Synopsis

Pagan Christs is a book by John M. Robertson, originally published in 1903. This work is a critical examination of the historical and mythological aspects of various religious traditions, particularly focusing on the parallels between pagan myths and the story of Jesus Christ in Christianity. 

"Pagan Christs" challenges conventional religious beliefs by presenting a comprehensive analysis of the similarities between the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the stories of various pagan deities from ancient mythologies. Robertson argues that many elements of the Christian narrative, including the virgin birth, crucifixion, and resurrection, can be traced back to earlier mythological figures and cults.

John Mackinnon Robertson (14 November 1856 – 5 January 1933) was a prolific Scottish journalist, advocate of rationalism and secularism, and Liberal Member of Parliament for Tyneside from 1906 to 1918. Robertson was best known as an advocate of the Christ myth theory.

    Death comes too soon for some and too late for others, but in the end it does come for us all. Yet we spend much of our lives ignoring it, fearing it, or attempting to postpone it. But if death is inescapable, how should Christians prepare? 
    Centuries ago, medieval Christians developed a guide to dying well known as "the art of dying" (ars moriendi, in Latin) that the Protestant Reformers developed further. In this compassionate and hopeful book, Robert Kolb recovers and adds to this rich tradition to help Christians face the shadow of death in the light of the resurrection. 
    Reflecting on Scripture, hymns, and his own personal experience, he walks with you through the valley, reminding you every step of the way that the risen Jesus shines brighter than the thickest darkness. If you have received a dire diagnosis, are walking alongside the dying, or are simply trying to come to grips with your own mortality and wisely number your days, Kolb will show you how to focus on the comfort provided by our risen Lord, who alone has the words of life.

    The Emotional Jesus will reveal what it looks like for God to live as man.  He left His Godly attributes in Heaven and came to earth to live as a human being.  Have you ever rehearsed the stories you have known about Jesus from the Bible and then wondered, "What would He do if He was in my shoes?"  You may be surprised at what you discover.  How would Jesus respond if He felt completely and totally hopeless, especially when life didn't turn out the way it was "supposed to"?  Was He ever so disgusted that it made Him sick to His stomach?  What if He was overcome by sadness or overwhelmed by shame?  What would He have done?  Join me as we discover how He reacted, responded and stayed true to His heart while facing the difficulties of life.

    The Buddha, also known as Siddhartha Gautama, was a philosopher, mendicant, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who lived in Ancient India. He is revered as the founder of Buddhism. He taught for around forty five years and built a large following, both monastic and lay. His teaching is based on his insight into suffering and the end of such – the state called Nirvana.Prince Gautama was born into an aristocratic family but eventually joined the renounced order of life. After several years of mendicancy, meditation, and asceticism, he awakened to understand the workings of the cycle of rebirth and how it can be escaped. The Buddha then traveled widely teaching. He taught the middle way between sensual indulgence and severe asceticism. He taught a training of the mind that included self-restraint, and meditative practices such as mindfulness. The Buddha also critiqued the practices of Brahmin priests, such as animal sacrifice.Here is the illumined heart of his divine timeless teachings.
