Dear Muhammad, et al,
Freke, and Gandy are highly respected scholarly authors, and check, and double check their information.I am sure they have read the Quran . What they have been trying to do is to get to the "hidden" truth of certain religions.
The book which they wrote about Christianity was quite fascinating. It was called the Jesus Mysteries. It revealed that the Bible teachings concerning the life of Christ were clearly copied in the main from specific tales about Osiris, and Dionysius. However, such claims have been known for decades amongst many Christian scholars. What Freke, and Gandy did was merely to popularize this "revelation". In other words, Christianity is largely a re-hash of pagan, or "heathen" thinking, and beliefs under a different name....
As far as I am concerned this does not undermine a personal belief in Christ. It merely expands it into something more extraordinary, and wonderful. The Real Christ is the PURE HIGHER INNER SELF. It does not matter (eg. Allah, Krishna, Ram, et al)what name you give It because what matters is your FAITH, AND BELIEF in It. The SELF is nothing but a projection from God, and is WHO, AND WHAT WE REALLY ARE without all the negative mental/emotional baggage. So, all this religious bickering about who has the real ultimate spiritual authority becomes essentially meaningless in the light of all this.
