Lets start with Horus since he is the primary figure they relate to Jesus.

-He was not born of a virgin. His mother was Isis and father was Osiris.
I'll just start with your first one, took me 2 minutes.

The story goes as follows: Seth (brother of Osiris) was jealous of Osiris and fought him to the death. After he killed Osiris he cut his body up into 14 pieces and spread the pieces throughout Egypt. Isis (Osiris' wife) found out that her husband was killed and she searched egypt looking for his body parts. She found all but one (his penis) and using her magic she put his body together and buried him, during the process of putting him back together she became impregnated with her son Horus.

and

As Harsiesis, he is "Horus, the son of Isis". Horus was conceived magically by Isis following the murder of his father, Osiris.

I won't bother with the rest, because if you are wrong on the first one, odds are you are talking out your ass on the rest as well.
