Again, good job for your utter failure.

I don't really see that it can symbolize Jesus since he hadn't even been born yet. Although you could say that the right eye was symbolic of light and good and the left of dark and evil.
Horus's father Osiris could be said to be an older version of Jesus. He represented the idea of a man who was both God and man, God made flesh, and the saviour who suffered a cruel death but rose again.
I've got a good book about the subject called The Jesus Mysteries by Timothy Freke & Peter Gandy. I recommend it if you're interested in that subject.
