WHO WAS THIS?
This was Chrishna (Krishna) of India, who according to tradition was crucified approximately 1200 B.C. Incidentally, he had a “virgin” birth, either by a hair of the Hindu God Vishnu entering his mother’s womb, or in another version of the myth, God Vishnu himself entering her womb.How is this for religious intolerance? Rabbi Yaacov Perrin said, “One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail.” Muhammad married a 6 year old girl. Joseph Smith, the founder of Mormonism had 24 wives, one was 14 years old. Christ story is based on other myths (Chrishna of India and Mithra of Persia). The story of Moses is patterned after the story of Sargon the Great. Major religions have SCRIPTURES that support intolerance, violence and even war.At Amazon.com, take a look at my book “A Spell on All Their Houses, How Religious SCRIPTURE and Practices Support Intolerance, Violence, and Even War” Includes Mythical and Forged Religious Origins.
Not in the Book, but interesting:
Christianity adopted the cross later on.Early Biblical texts claim that Christ was crucified by a stake, not cross:

Read NOW! This Einstein letter sold October 18, 2012 on Auction for $3,000,000.
“The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weakness, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still purely primitive, legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this. ... For me the Jewish religion like all other religions is an incarnation of the most childish superstition.”—Albert Einstein, Princeton, March 1, 1954 in a letter to Eric Gutkind, Jewish Philosopher/Author. From: http://atheismexposed.tripod.com/einstein.htm By 1939 Einstein became quite confident in propagating his views against anthropomorphic religion. In a speech at the Princeton Theological Seminary he forcefully proposed that the time had come for them to take the lead in dismantling religions based on the view of a “personal” God: “In the struggle for ethical good teachers of religion must have the stature to give up the doctrine of a personal God, that is give up the source of fear and hope which in the past placed such vast powers in the hands of priests.”[xxiii] They also should avail themselves of “the forces that are capable of cultivating the Good, the True, and the Beautiful, in humanity itself.”[xxiv]ISLAM
