@ propidol - 4.11.12 - 02:47pm Mithras wasnt Roman. He was a Persian God that was worshipped by the Romans. The Temple of the Bull was of significant location in London. very true.. |

Also there was more than one Mithras but its The Bullslayer that is of most significance to Christian history in England.

daniel 7: 3. Four great beasts, each different from the others, came up out of the sea. 4 The first was like a lion, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted from the ground so that it stood on two feet like a human being, and the mind of a human was given to it.

Son of Cush and grandson of Ham; his name has become proverbial as that of a mighty hunter. His kingdom comprised Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Sinar, otherwise known as the land of Nimrod (Gen. x. 8-10; I Chron. i. 10; Micah v. 5 (A. V. 6)).

Nimrod is the prototype of a rebellious people, his name being interpreted as he who made all the people rebellious against God (Pes. 94b; comp. Targ. of pseudo-Jonathan and Targ. Yer. to Gen. x. 9). He is identified with Cush and with Amraphel, the name of the latter being interpreted as he whose words are dark ( ; Gen. R. xlii. . As he was the first hunter he was consequently the first who introduced the eating of meat by man.

He was also the first to make war on other peoples (Midr. Agadah to Gen. x. 9).
