I've been given a book ''Dictionary of Myths''-there is NO mention of Jesus. Is this discrimination against Christianity,one of our best known Myths ?

No, it's discrimination in favor of Christianity, by assuming that their myths are not actually myths, but the unvarnished truth.

Religious tales are usually only called myths when no one worships them anymore. It's probably for the sake of political correctness.

Christianity is'nt a myth!!
That kind of talk is for people who don't take it seriously like I do.

It's a disease.

Exactly, the chain goes something like:

myth
fringe cult
cult
offshoot denomination
religion
major world religion

All based of course on the number of followers involved. None of them has any more proof than the others.
