I am an archaeologist from Macedonia. I have always been interested in Mithras. I am currently writing my MA thesis about the cult in my country.

Hello. We new zartosht doesn’t wrote the book of avesta and he and other zorastarians just edited it. So my topic is about homosexuality in Mithraism. We now homosexuality banned in avesta with very rough punishment in this world purgatory. But we have many high ranked characters in western mithraism(roman mithraism) they was homosexual or bisexual. So can you proove its banned or approved in mithraism?

Looking at the cult as a purely Roman construct, men having sex with men was as acceptable as it was for any free Roman male. That is to say, without written proof to the contrary, male/male encounters were fine.

About zorastarianism. We’re not a spin-off of it. We have provements shows many parts of avesta book was wrote by mithraists not zorastarians.

Interesting… but I think there might be a mix-up here. I mean everyone is entitled to their own views but we are discussing the Cult of Mithras here, not a Zoroastrian spin-off. Sure it may been influenced by Persian beliefs, but it mostly was a roman brotherhood based on Greco-Roman tradition. In any case, the Cult of Mithras was never a religion but rather a group of guys who shared certain vibes, tried to better themselves, and enjoyed hanging out together. So asking about who someone sleeps with,seems pretty out of place and at the polar opposite of what the cult of Mithras represents at least to me.

My cult here works with those thing with what said in avesta. I wanna know we are doing right or wrong. We dont accept homosexuals in cult.
