Quote:So I would say that it's perhaps a bit of a jump to insist that Diabolical Mimicry was a last gasp effort to make a rational argument about the similarities of Mithraism to their own faith when it could just as easily have been a reaction out of zeal because similar practices coexisted in the two religions for a time, and that was bothersome to them.
Last gasp? More like the first gasp, you mean. Look, these were xtians who came up with that one. You may find it embarrassing now but clearly they didn't.
