"The devil, whose business is to pervert the truth, mimics the exact circumstances of the Divine Sacraments...Thus he celebrates the oblation of bread, and brings in the symbol of the resurrection. Let us therefore acknowledge the craftiness of the devil, who copies certain things of those that be Divine."

Tertullian, late 2nd century CE, commenting on the many similarities between Mithraism and Christianity.

"He who will not eat of my body and drink of my blood, so that he will be made on with me and I with him, the same shall not know salvation."
An inscription to Mithras which parallels John 6:53-54

What profit has not that fable of Christ brought us!"
