Basically the lady debunbks Christianity by revealing how it's nothing but 'Son' worship, very pagn, and an amalgamation of other faiths. To give you an idea, she's just released a new free e-book.
Direct link to book pdf: Origins of Christ
(Something Tim O'Neil may be intereted in).
Her website: Acharya S
However, I remember reading about how she makes exaggerated claims and how she's just plain wrong about most of the stuff she writes about. Can't remember however if this came from theists or atheists. That may matter, it may not.
A DAMN interesting thread about Acharya S.'s book "Suns of God" and Acharya's 'research' on RDF here:
"Suns of God" by Acharya (46 pages that include Jerome, allegedly Acharya herself, and a bunch of random people which Acharya apparently called there via mass email to ask for help defending her book -> shortcut to the email)...I could have sworn that Tim had posted in that thread too, but now that I look apparently not, though a damn interesting read either way.
Some other relevant RDF threads include:
Zeitgeist Movie & Addendum (86 pages with Tim, Jerome etc)
"Pagan" vs. Jewish origins of Jesus story (Acharya) (26 pages with rationalrevolution, Jerome etc)
Mithras, wow if this is true it's pretty amazing. (15 pages with Jerome and friends)
So, what's the deal with Horus/Mithras/Dionyses? (5 pages with Tim, Jerome etc)
