The delivery giant’s streaming service is set to show 2016’s “Biblical Conspiracies”, which will tell the story of a Greek religious man called Apollonius of Tyan – who they believe to be the “son of God”.
The preacher, who was born around the same time as Jesus in Central Anatolia, is said to share a number of striking similarities to the Son of God.
These include amassing a huge army of loyal followers and performing miracles.
The documentary explains: “There is, in fact, a man who can be found in text outside of the Bible after the church failed to eradicate him from history.
“His name is Apollonius and he was born in the 3rd or 4th year BC in Tyana in Cappadocia, Anatolia.
“He became a disciple of Pythagoras renouncing flesh, wine and women.
He wore no shoes and let his hair and beard grow long. He soon became a reformer and fixed his abode in the Temple of Aesculapius”.
It continues: “Eventually Apollonius became a wise sage himself and his own notoriety grew.
“Aurelian (Roman Emperor) vowed to erect temples and statues to his honour. Was there ever anything among men more holy?
“He reportedly restored life to the dead and spoke of things beyond the human reach. And, unlike Jesus, there is evidence to prove that Apollonius actually existed.”
