Love it, in all it’s violent pagan glory. There is so much about Dionysus that points to Christ. I love seeing the fingerprints of God in ancient literature.

For a Greek tragedy, "The Bacchae" is pretty awesome. I enjoy the fact that both Pentheus and Agaue got what they deserved--Pentheus for being a jerk to Dionysus' face, and Agaue for defaming the name of her own sister, Semele, before the play begins. Bad news all around.
