The christs were all illegitimate. Their parents, the sun and moon, would have complied with the idiotic human laws if there had been any magistrate in Heaven to marry them. There was Asphalius of Greece, born of the Virgin Ethra out of wedlock. Then there are Romulus and Remus, alias Castor and Pollux or Gemini, the Twins of the zodiac. They were sons of a Vestal Virgin named Rhea. King Amulius, corresponding with Herod, commanded his servant to destroy the two children, but the servant put them in a trough or ark, and they floated on the river as Moses, who was also a christ, did in his ark, and as the males and females did in Noah’s Ark. Their mother claimed that their father was the god Mars. Unmarried ladies, in those halcyon days, always put their children up to the gods.—See Plutarch, 1:33. Christ is a mythical sun-god, a rebirth of the sun in a new sign of the zodiac. The Church Fathers, in localizing the Christ in the Holy Land, could claim that any Jesus of that region was the Son of God, either Jesus, the bandit of Galilee, or the one described above, as long as his name corresponded with the I E S of Egypt, and as long as he was dead and could not defend himself. According to Josephus, the Jesus that lived in the reign of King Agrippa and Herod the Tetrarch was Jesus of Galilee, the captain of a band of robbers, a wicked man, a seditious person and an innovator, the leader of a tumult of mariners and poor people. He sacked the temple at Samaria. See Life of Josephus, 5. Renan says that Philo, who died about 50 A. D., and who was born before Jesus, and who lived in Palestine during the alleged preaching of Christ, had never heard of him. Josephus does not mention a Christian sect at all. The Emperor Adrian called the Christians worshippers of Serapis, and that was probably the truth. Serapis is the Devil, with horns, Lord of the Underworld. Christna, Apollo, Zeus and others, like Christ, were good shepherds. The Hindus represent Christna as crucified on the cross between two thieves, with the nail marks in his hands, and with a crown of seven points to show that he is the seventh avatar. His father was a carpenter, and he slew the great serpent Caliva and was worshipped in India ages before the Christian Era.
