À propos de cet audio

The source provides an extensive overview of Gerald Massey's controversial 1883 work, "The Historical Jesus and the Mythical Christ," which argues that the Christian narrative is not based on a singular historical figure but is rather a typological evolution of ancient Egyptian and astronomical myths. The central thesis posits a distinction between a shadowy "historical Jesus" and the "mythical Christ," an astral figure derived from precessional cycles—specifically, the Piscean epoch known as "Equinoctial Christolatry." Massey, a self-taught Egyptologist, traced dozens of parallels between the Gospel stories and Egyptian deities like Horus and Osiris, contending that Christianity is a "re-clothed" Kamite cult whose miracles are merely transformed celestial portents. The episode acknowledges both the influence of Massey's comparative method on modern mythicism and the criticisms leveled against his etymological liberties and lack of formal training.
