1412	ENT_DEMETER	received_as	ENT_CHR_DEMONS	medium	Demeter's Eleusinian Mysteries were a primary patristic target: Justin Martyr (1 Apol. 66) presents the mysteries as demonic counterfeits of Christian sacraments; Clement of Alexandria (Protrepticus II) extensively mocks the Eleusinian rites as demonic obscenities. Augustine (City of God VI.9) discusses Ceres/Demeter's cult as morally degraded. The Mysteries' secrecy made them especially suspect as demonic deception.
