Overview

Muslim scholar Ahmed Osman shows how the true, Egyptian roots of Christianity were deliberately covered up by the early church at the time of the burning of the library at Alexandria - roots which are only now being uncovered again by archaeology. He shows how concepts such as the Trinity were derived from Egyptian models (Osiris, Isis and Horus), how Horus's virgin birth gave rise to Jesus's virgin birthand how Akhenaten became the model for Moses and Tutankhamen the modelfor Jesus. The early Christians devised a fictional life of Jesus - but out of largely Egyptian sources for their own political purposes; for example, 'Amen' is derived from the Egyptian sun god Amun, and theLord's Prayer was used by Egyptians thousands of years previously.
