Yeah, that's a fairly common thread running through most of the theories - to be honest I find some of the other bits a bit more interesting - like the one that Jesus was trying to introduce aspects of the Egyptian/Gnostic religion into the Jewish religion - and that the whole cruxifiction was just a well played out ruse (though apparently it went a bit wrong and he ended up worse off than expected).
A lot of the theory comes down to comparisons between Jesus and Mary Magdalene, and Orisis and Isis, the Egyptian gods - with the familiar 'resurrection' theme running through both stories.
