Both Prometheus and Dionysus were very fond of us mortals. Prometheus gave us fire, the internet, social media, podcasts, television and the atom bomb. Dionysus gave us hedonistic excess, sex, drugs, rock and roll, all those good things as well as Hollywood. Had Rome been defeated and sacked following the Battle of Alesia in 52 BC we'd still be quarreling about whether Bel, Brigid, Aed or Grannus gave us the atom bomb, and whether Braciaca, Dea, Sucellius or Maeve gave us the Twelve Step Program.
