1414	ENT_DIONYSUS	received_as	ENT_CHR_DEMONS	medium	Justin Martyr (1 Apol. 25, 54) explicitly names Dionysus as a demon-promoted deity and argues that the myth of the dying-and-rising Dionysus was a demonic anticipatory counterfeit of the resurrection — Satan foreknew the resurrection and seeded Dionysus mythology to make it seem derivative. Augustine (City of God VII.21) treats Bacchus/Dionysus's cult as morally ruinous. The Dionysus–Christ typology (dying-rising, wine, thyrsos–cross) was a primary concern of patristic apologists.
