The most intelligent design....not Christian...

Ancient Egyptian...

The Ennead, in which Atum arose from the primordial waters (Neith), and masturbated to relieve his loneliness. His semen and breath became Tefnut (moisture) and Shu (dryness), respectively. From Shu and Tefnut, were born Geb (earth), and Nuit (sky), who were born in a state of permanent copulation. Shu separated them, and their children were Ausare (Osiris; death), Set (desert), Aset (Isis; life), and Nebet Het (Nephthys; fertile land). Osiris and Isis were a couple, as were Nepthys and Set.

I guess things evolved after that...

That Carl Sagan quote is ill-informed and misleading. Siegfriendandroy has come up with some very insightful theories.

This is confusing. Which one of these Gods gave birth to Jesus?

Dunno, don't care.

Well Isis and Osiris had Horus, who had the head of a hawk. I think that Horus is supposed to be like Jesus. Some people claim that Jesus is a rip off of Horus.
