The claims about the Mithras/Christ similarities are some what exaggerated.

*Somewhat* being the key word here. The same can be said about Islam stealing from Christianity.

Just saying.

You're telling me. As much as I usually agree with Scroobius Pip (http://www.onlylyrics.com/hits.php?grid=9&id=1007253), on this subject Stephen Fry has been badly let down by his elves

For a start, Mithras is supposed to have lept, fully grown, from the wall of a cave. It was Campbell that described this as a "virgin birth"
