Significance of crucifixion is mainly it is wood "cursed is anyone who hangs from a tree" and he was raised up like the serpent in the wilderness. I do think there is a reason why there are archetypes in most religions (common source) however I think you are missing the point that while God can be explained by the natural (reference to the morning star) in no way is he the natural as Egyptian gods symbolized them I believe God created them. People can warp anything for their own ends. Does not mean the concept is wrong.
Then I would suggest that you talk to the Texas board of education about trying to remove Evolution from the class and replace it with creationism. How about 40% of Americans, that is 140 M people. It is naive of you to think that religion does not have an influence in our world view. Believing in Jesus means you believe in the bible and everything else that is written there since there it has always been claimed to be influenced by the "holy spirit". Its a copout to say that some text needs to be literally be interpreted and some not. If so, who gets decide which ones?
quit with the scare tactics. This isn't happening, nor does it have anything to do with Catholicism which embraces evolution. Do you know the history of Math and Science? Actually, that was my very same point to you. You seem naive to religion and the world view. Allow me to ask you, what is the "holy spirit" to Catholics. If you can answer that, then maybe you can also explain why both the Jewish faith and Islam explain the history of Jesus, too.
