The following is probably one of the most important quotes ever in jeebus studies; it was made by Acharya S., who has carried forward the work of Lindtner and Thundy into the political dimension. It would be to our advantage to quickly wrap up jeebus studies so as to progress to the more essential role of jewish transformation. Probably Jewish transformation was coeval with the rise of Christianity in a Hellenistic atmosphere.

In doing some research, I was once again struck by the fact that John's gospel is the only one that mentions the singularly important event of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. Since John's is quite obviously the most Egyptian of the gospels - deliberately written for the <b>Alexandrian audience,</b> apparently - it is equally evident that this incident, mentioned nowhere else, was specifically designed for followers of Osiris, whether Jewish or Gentile. <span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'><b>(Contrary to deliberately contrived public misconception, Jews were highly involved in "pagan" religions of every stripe.) </b></span>The religion of Serapis, or a combination of Osiris and Apis, was deliberately created for Jews and Greeks in Egypt. Apparently, these followers of Osiris were quite aware - as they had been in the past - of the story of the death and resurrection of Osiris. By making Jesus raise Osiris, Christianity eclipses the Osirian/Serapian religion.
Very clever indeed. And indisputable as far as I am concerned. There is no other way of explaining it, especially when one factors in the facts that the Osirian religion was very old and had many millions of followers over the millennia, and that there were possibly as many as <b>1 million Jews, Hebrews, Samaritans and assorted other Israelites at Alexandria </b>during the creation of Christianity.

I for one have always had a hard time believing in a preceding thousand year struggle between prophets of the one true god and the pagan elements of the Jews. it has every indication of a fabricated conflict in a region rife with the fabricated histories (e.g. Alexander in India). At the time of The Second temple destruction, Asherah was besides Yahweh's side.
