hmmm... you had me confused with your quote there...
I guess you were quoting someone in the article.
And I agree with you - there are no physical SELF resurrections in any other religion.
Muhammed did not perform miracles, and he’s rotting in the ground. His “revelations” could be categorized as “fits” or “drug induced” or perhaps even demonic.

- Norse paganism: Baldur the Beautiful.
- Egyptian paganism: Osiris Pharisaic Judaism: belief in a general resurrection (unlike the Sadducees, they read those parts of the prophecies right)
- Islam: belief in a general resurrection (cribbed from Christianity and Judaism by their false prophet)
The pagan instances were attributed by Lewis got God's loving care, not leaving the pagans in complete darkness, so that they might more easily embrace the Gospel: he described all pre-Christian myths of dying and rising gods as "good dreams".

Bother! I missed adding an li tag before Pharisaic Judaism in my reply, when I decided to go with a ul environment.
