Isn't it amazing how the internet, instead of making us smarter, actually makes us dumber?
This Jesus-Horus connection theory nonsense is not new.
Probably the earliest published work about it was contained in book
The Natural Genesis, first published in 1883, by Gerald Massey, an English poet who was also a spritualist and Ancient Egypt enthusiast. His theories influenced later writers such as Alvin Boyd Kuhn, Tom Harpur, Yosef Ben-Jochannan, and Dorothy M. Murdock (pen name Acharya S.).
==================================
There is no basis to conclude that Horus was born of a virgin.
Horus’ mother, Isis, was married to Osiris.
After Osiris is murdered and hacked into 14 pieces by his brother, his widow Isis puts him back together again and brings him back to life for a short period, for the purpose of conceiving a son. But Osiris' penis is missing, because it was previously thrown into the river Nile and eaten by catfish. So, Iris makes a substitute penis for Osiris, attaches it to his body, performs intercourse, conceives and gives birth to Horus.
Virgin birth ba yon? That's what we get from relying on internet memes.
===================================
There is no basis for saying that Jesus was born on Dec. 25. That date was an invention of pagan origin, which was unfortunately adopted by various Christian sects. The date of Jesus' birth is unknown. In fact, bible scholars agree that Jesus was definitely not born in the month of December.
Horus was not born on Dec. 25 either. Horus was born on the first of the Epagomenal days in the Ancient Egyptian calendar. This coincides with July 14 in our modern calendar, which means Horus was not even born in December.
===================================
There is no basis for saying that a star led 3 wise men to the newborn Horus.
This is an invention that started in
The Origins of Christianity, a book by Dorothy M. Murdock (pen name Acharya S.). She claims that there were three stars that led the wise men named the kings in Orion. Her claim was based on unfounded claims by Gerald Massey, whose only source material was his interpretation of some "panels" supposedly at Luxor, Egypt, which nobody else seems to know about.
===================================
There is no basis for saying that Horus was taken to Egypt to flee the wrath of Typhon.
Horus was not taken to Egypt; he was born in Egypt. He didn’t have to "flee the wrath of Typhon," since Typhon never tried to kill him. It was his uncle, Set, who was trying to murder him.
===================================
There is no basis for saying that Horus taught in the temple as a child.
The majority of information in Egyptian text about Horus is about his adulthood. There is an account of his birth, but there is nothing about the child Horus supposedly teaching in the temple.
That story is an invention that cannot be backed up by any source material.
===================================
There is nothing in the Horus stories about any supposed baptism of Horus. There is simply no basis for this claim.
It's Acharya S. who claims that John the Baptist is actually Anup the Baptizer. But there is no mention of this person in any of the Horus accounts. Again, a modern invention without any basis whatsoever.
Jesus had 12 disciples. Horus did not. According to the Horus accounts, Horus' followers were 4 demi-gods.
Massey points to a mural in the Book of Hades in which there are twelve reapers, and says they are the 12 disciples of Horus. But Horus is not even present in this scene, so the connection is baseless and forced.
There is no source material that can be the basis for the existence of somebody named "El-Azur-Us." The name is a nice 20th century invention that sounds similar to "Lazarus," but an invention nonetheless.
