Found this article from Challies's blog, Christianity's Uniqueness - "In reply to the critics who claim Christianity was just a copy-cat religion among the ancient religions, it’s helpful to take a look at how an ancient adherent of these pagan religions viewed Christianity."
I'm still going through my History of Christianity class, but I've already gained an appreciation for these types of articles that look back (way back) into the Church's history. Actually that blog post gives an excerpt from David Bentley Hart's book Atheist Delusions, and I understood it completely! But what's super interesting is how he makes a parallel between some of the ancient pagan criticisms of the faith and a modern objection to the faith.
