etymology is fun to make up. in the less fun world of factual research 'christos' is the past
participle in Greek of the verb 'krio' which means to 'anoint' (as you note) which I take it was
a way of appointing someone king among the Hebrews; it is a Greek translation of the 
Hebrew word of the same meaning (viz. 'messiah').

'krishna' is derived in Sanskrit from the word for 'dark' or 'dark-blue' and Lord Krishna is often 
portrayed as dark-blue.

maybe he bathed in blue ink! <g>

ah, the saying is "divide et impera", there is no 'conquere' in Latin. 'conquirere' exists and is related
to 'acquire' (and 'inquire', 'question', etc.). looks like the expression doesn't originate with Caesar.

 it's easy to google this stuff;
