I recently got into a debate with this guy on the parallels between Horus, Mithra, Krishna, etc and the Christian Jesus. Things Is, I only know so much, and the guy wants credible sources..so yeah, need some help.

Basically, any valid, reliables source exploring these parallels (not just listing them), and were (exactly what book, manuscript, etc) they come from.

Thanks in advance.

Well DWade, can't think of any sources offhand, but if I were doing a search I would start looking under "comparative religions", that would be an excellent place to start for the subject really does mean discussion on the differences.
