5. I'm actually perplexed by that statue. Must be a frat house.

Dionysus should be with some vines. I'm thinking there is wine in that vat. I certainly hope so.

7. He'd be surprised by beer! ;)

P.S. I'm named after him!

8. Seriously, who would you rather spend your afterlife with? :)

I'm with ya there. Bacchus for the win!

6. Superb book = "The Origins of the Mithraic Mysteries", David Ulansey.

ALSO~~~The statue "Mithras Slaying the Cosmic Bull" is in the Princeton U. Library, if you're ever in the vicinity!
