My Favourite Mythological Character

First of all we understand myth as a sacred narrative usually explaining how the world or humankind came to be in its present form, although, in a very broad sense, the word can refer to any traditional story.
Well, we all know the same old story: A God who created mankind from mud, auto-sended to the Earth in a suicide mission, borning out of a virgin, walking above the water, turning water to wine (that's right!), raising the dead, etc.
Talking about mythology, I have to say I like this guy so much, in fact I would say He's my favourite hero. I mean, He's better than Ironman, Superman and all the Avengers put together. I can imagine Him smashing around some Jews, riding a tyrannosaurus rex (that's a recurrent image), with an AK-47, playing the most epic guitar solo ever, kicking some pagan asses, etc.
But why this can be considerated a myth? Ask the different cultures who came before or during the Christian-Hebrew heritage: Egypcians, Persians, Sumerians, Greeks and many others had this story, and as we know, Jews were nomad people who lived in all the places mentioned before. So, we can briefly say(I won't extend so much about this, you make your own research if you want to know the actual true) that this was an attempt to explain how the world was created (totally a rip-off) and more recently, how we can be saved by a sin that was imposed by others.
