A cult developed around Yeshu, a name for Krishna.

This is the kind of tripe that comes from groups like Institute of Divine Metaphysical Research-IDMR- They claim the Greek word Christos means Krishna. But if one translated Krishna to English it is not Christos since they have no equivalent word for this in their language. What they ( and your by your claims) are trying to make a connection with a pagan god(s) by phonics (what the word sounds like )and not the actual definition of the word used.

So idov - perhaps you need to come out of the closet and quit producing this tripe

I am posting on a current events subject here.

I do write on religions. In those books I put a notice early on that this book is not suitable for those with religious beliefs. If someone bought it, they can return it. If they borrowed they don’t have to go past 10 per cent and so don’t pay.

I am only looking for readers with open, inquiring minds.

You are coming in here looking for an argument.

I know exactly where the word “Christos” came from. A bunch of half illiterate numskulls in Alexandria out to make a fast buck decided to throw the Torah into Greek. The Jews never read it because it was such a botch, but the Greeks did.

They came to the Hebrew noun “anointed.” They didn’t know enough Greek to translate it so they went for a verb which means “to rub” as in a bath. Reference is Paul Carus if you know who that is.

Christos is a nonsense word which if it were made into a noun which come out Rubbie.

I am not an atheist. I am what you call a heretic. They don’t burn us today, sorry.
