I didn't specifically know of Apollonius but I did know that there were many other delusional people who thought they were of divine origins and had supernatural powers. All the information that I was able to locate relating to him states that very little is actually know about Apollonius himself and a majority of the information that actually IS know, all comes from Philostratus. That's why he's written off as fiction as the rest should be.
That was the same conclusion that I came to after researching him. I did find it interesting how close that he came to being like Jesus but I do realize that there were many long before him as well!
I wish that one day all religions will question what they have been taught.
That would be very easy if we are able to set a worldwide ban on childhood indoctination or at the very least removed all bans from any and all forms of education and knowledge. If not, this will continue to happen around the world: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjbJnZUJTYU

I doubt that will happen
why because , all major religions know their true roots , which is Sumerian and THAT fact is what the major religions DON'T want you to know or investigate
You are referring only the abrahamic religions which, by the way include judaism, not jewism.
I think Hinduism, Buddhism, and Taoism are equally important--to say the least.
...are you talking about a mass extinction or football ?
