heologian Dr Robert Beckford investigates amazing parallels to the Christ story in other faiths, some of them predating Christianity by thousands of years. The Hindu god, Krishna, was conceived by a virgin and his birth was attended by angels, wise men and shepherds. Buddha was also the result of a miraculous birth and visited by wise men bearing gifts. Beckford attempts to unravel the mystery of why there are so many versions of the Christ story across the world and asks which is the real one.

This documentary was such a joke. The slightest similarity was taken and blown out of proportion, and the vast differences between the religions is ignored. For example, Mithras was born from a rock or from "the cosmic egg", depending on the source; therefore, it was "a virgin birth."
