"Christian Mythology"?  Now there's an interesting statement. Some of the
best historical records validate the life and work of Jesus and its a myth
like Norse, Greek and Roman gods?  You're certainly entitled to your
thinking, but myth?  I think not.

Think again...
Just because someone existed doesn't mean there hasn't been a mythology
developed around him/her. And I don't want to presume the other person's
entire meaning, but "Christian Mythology" isn't exclusively about Jesus of
Nazareth, but the whole Bible. It should more correctly be called the
"Judeo-Christian Mythology". Things like the Earth is only 6000 years old,
the planet was completely flooded for 40 days, many of the "miracles"
associated with Jesus, some of the people in Genesis living for two hundred
years, etc. There are many more and they are Myths, as fantastical as any
found in Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Celtic or Norse mythology. Let's not forget
that more than 70% of the world's population does NOT believe in Jesus the
Christ.

Thanks,
