    I have actually stood inside a Mithraic temple (or rather what remained of it). It occurred when I visited the Roman fort of Vindolanda, which is near to Hadrian's Wall in northern England. It was made of stone and masonry and the floor was about two metres below ground level. It would have had a roof originally, but this had long gone. There were a few stone steps by which I was able to descend onto the flagged stone floor. The original sandstone altar, with a carving on the front depicting Mithras in his Phrygian cap wrestling with a bull, is now inside the museum adjacent to the fort. I also went inside the Roman Commander's residence, in which the emperor Hadrian himself would have been housed, when he visited Vindolanda in 122AD.

    Even to this day, every Zoroastrian fire temple is called "Dar-e Mehr", which translates to "House of Mithra."

    Exquisite presentation. Thank you for this. I was not aware of the hellish beliefs surrounding this strange cult. That's gotta be a left-over from Persian religion, as I recall there were Avestan (maybe Farsi?) texts where Hell is described in detail. Awesome content!

      Thanks so much. Yes, there are definitely Persian fingerprints all over many ancient cults and traditions. Glad you enjoyed it.

      This strange cult is the founder of all religions of the world. The Persians used to worship Ahura, a term derived from Ansu meaning Satan. Now it makes sense why all these religions are so satanic. The Gnostics even exposed the satanic god of the bible 2000 years ago.

      ​@alphabetpeople2902 the fallen angels landed in Persia, before it was Persia, before the flood. Basically you have the struggle of Satan vs the seed of the woman since the beginings of civilization, and that's why all recorded history points to the same gods warring against Yahweh.

      @@jenathent4840 Genesis 3 verse 15 (God is speaking to the serpent) "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel."
      The seed of the woman is Christ, the seed of the serpent are the offsprings of the fallen angels, who mixed their DNA with the DNA of men by having sex with the women, giving birth to the nephilim. For that reason God sent the flood, to wipe out the race of giants that had destroyed human's DNA. For some reason, Noah's family DNA's was intact, so God saved him from the flood, so he could keep the genealogy from which Jesus would eventually be born pure.
      That's was the war before Jesus, to stop the seed of the woman, the savior of mankind, from getting born. And it is the story that has shaped Human history from the beginning.
      If you want to know more, maybe look into "The Genesis 6 Conspiracy" by Gary Wayne, and Michael Heiser's "The Unseen Realm".
      the book of Enoch also explains into details what the fallen angels did, where they landed, her names, and more.

    1) was mithraism a secret society, if so there numbers were declared so big it could have replaced Christianity as the state religion if so how could it be a secret society? 2) what did the tauroctony mean 3) mithras was the god of contracts how?

  • @ronalddollarhite5216

    Mithrasium used mushrooms in their ceremonies. Mithra was the mushroom. The Tauroctony is a mushroom, the white bull is the stipe, Mithra is dressed in red which protrays the red cap of the Amanita, his cape is the stellar constellation, the figures on each side usually have legs crossed symbolizing the mushroom having one stipe.

      An interesting point.
      I had a look to see where Heywood got this reference and found this passage; "Masonry, successor of the Mysteries ... is identical with the ancient Mysteries" (Morals and Dogma II, The Fellow-Craft). The passage goes on at length to qualify and refine that assertion.

    Mitra, and Mithras are 2 completely different conversations.

      Thanks for that - bear in mind that the person who wrote this text has been dead for over 70 years. As I mention in my description, this is inaccurate, but none the less fascinating for all that. I find it just as important to 'get into the minds' of our forebears as it is to rely on contemporary theories.

      @From the Quarries Certainly. I was hesitant to even respond. I thought it perhaps was a way of inviting the viewer to unpeeled the onion and expose certain things to themselves.
      At any rate, this is a great channel and congrats on the 3000 subscribers.

      Thanks for that. I really appreciate it. I hope I didn't come across as snappy!
      I get so many comments from people who seem to think that all of the videos are my own work and my own opinion. 5 times already today I've been writing 'it's not me, it's an archive!' 🤣
      And yes, Heywood is *way* off the mark in this essay, but I don't think that invalidates his main argument.
