Taras Bulba, Genghis Khan, Rasputin

[Steppingfeet]

Taras Bulba was fictional in the same sense that Jesus Christ (Jehoshuah/Yesua) was fictional. There were real historical personalities associated with these names. They weren't exactly like their fictionalized counterparts.

This is what Ra was referring to, in my opinion.

I know this is an old post of yours anagogy but the thread got bumped and I'm curious. What is the basis for your statement that there was indeed an actual person who was later portrayed in fiction as "Taras Bulba"? (Whether or not that was the individual's actual name.)
