Does anyone still believe in Mithraism?

[nabarz]

Yes, there are details of modern practise in the book 'The Mysteries of Mithras: The Pagan Belief That Shaped the Christian World'.

[TheUncannie]

I have that book!

I hope a gain a friendship with Mithras who will stand by my side all the time!

@UndyingPrince666 No! They preferred to turn Christ into the new mithras for the same reason they created mithras: to rule over people. Christianism is the "modern mithraism"

[Enzo012]

@UndyingPrince666 It was related to Zoroastrianism and there are still a few Zoroastrians around. Mithras was the son of Ahura Mazda.

@j400wel I bet that one religion that everyone used to belong to just happens to be your religion - the one true religion - whichever superstition it may be.

[j400wel]

@alanheath no they dont

all religions were 1 religion once but changed by evil men,these men then tell us that man made religion to control others

[alanheath]

@j400wel All religions take the bits that suit them from others.
