There's no denying that the church of rome integrated the solar/son/god myth into what was the early christian church.

I used to plow cotton with an old mule I spent time following each day except Sunday in my teens. I talked to her butt and vagina as she stopped to shit and piss in the fields where we worked each day. I accused her of having no shame. I was practicing to be-co-me skilled at inducing unwarranted sha-me.
A possible lesson this mule taught me was that no matter what I did to convince her to change her mind, she stopped working and headed for the barn before the sun set each day. Mules are perfectly capable of living up to their reputations for being stubborn. But, in my unwashed opinion, mules are the perfect companions for climbing wholy mountains to seek peak experiences.
Oh, I walked with Her,
and I talked with Her,
and She told me
I was Her own,
and the joy we shared
as we tarried there,
none other
has ever
known.
~ Early Christian Hymn by A. Einstein
Does a mule need it's own myth to know to get back to the security of the barn before the sun sets? Do you think they have to wait for a neighboring mule to tell them where to go when the sun don't shine?
In my world view there is no separate Christian solar myth that's any better or worse than any other solar myth. Just pick one that suits your fancy and move the fuck on. Nobody knows. Jeez!
To me it seems presumptuous to suggest God/Sol needs such haughty transitory assistance from it's illegitimate spawn. '-)

I do not attempt to tell the God's own truth here because I don't know what the truth is or hardly ever. I try to capture the drifting thoughts that randomly appear in my imagination for reasons I may not understand. I don't know if the content I capture with these words is true or false. The Comments settings are turned off to prevent me from having to defend what amounts to little more than fanciful, sometime crude speculation. Great moments in our lives never return.
