Keep in mind, all of you heretics, that Dionysus is not omnipotent, omniscient, nor did he create this mess of a world in which we live. He is the god of divine intoxication. Google him if necessary.
Noah and Lot were pals of Dionysus. They got passed out drunk on his wine. Jesus liked it as well. God loved it.
Well, Christianity isn't all bad, but it is better to dispense with the other Christian nonsense and just stick with Dionysus, as a large part of Christianity is bad.
With Dionysus, you don't have to believe any particular old book to be on good terms with him. (Even though Homer is a better writer than the Christian writers, you don't have to believe everything he wrote.) Plus Dionysus is not interested in where you stick your penis, unlike the pervert Christian god. Gay, straight, bi, whatever, he is okay with this, and he isn't peering into everyone's bedroom to see what they are doing, so he isn't particularly interested in even knowing if you are gay, straight, bi, or whatever. Dionysus isn't watching you urinate and defecate all the time, too. If he ever saw you doing that, it would be by accident, and he would probably look away rather quickly, like decent people.
Additionally, Dionysus did not create this mess of a world, and is unable to make it perfect. (He gave us wine and alcohol, and tells us to party and have a good time. So he is doing his part in making the world a little better.) He is not the sadist that the Christian God is. Dionysus will not send anyone to eternal torment.
Dionysus is far more civilized than the Christian god. Really, if you are going to believe in a god, Dionysus is a great option.
