Mithraism

A religion that was practiced exclusively by the Roman hierarchy between 200-400 CE. It was the state religion for a short time before Christianity recieved it's backing from Constantine. Mithraism centered around a figure named Mithra who was born from a rock, had twelve disciples, taught Baptism and Eucharist, and was crucified. Like Christianity it had seven central rituals called sacraments. The two main sacraments were Baptism and the Lord's Supper. Ironically, Christianity ended up dominating the empire because it was backed by the Mithraic, Constantine.

Christianity borrowed a lot from Mithraism.

Mithra

Mithra is a intelligent, beautiful, and badass Indian goddess who is perfect and too good at everything, but people can't hate her for it because she's also very humble. When/if some sort of higher being created Mithra, they tossed out the rule of "everything in moderation" and decided to go all in. Mithra is on Tinder ;)

mithra adj. - the state of being unproblematic, chill, and zen. e.g. I feel so mithra, breathing in my cool alternative music, eating my Costco bean burger patties, and reading my 6th popular psych book of the week.
