Bacchus and Dionysos – more than just good drinking buddies

Every now and then I come across people who insist that the Greek and Roman gods are completely separate beings. Not only do they possess totally different names, have different forms of worship attached to them, and performed different functions within their respective pantheons, but they feel different to those who worship them.
Such are the most logical arguments brought to the discussion, though I must confess that most of the discourse isn’t carried out on this level. We’ll ignore the often rude, vulgar, and nonsensical arguments that this often generates and instead focus on something more relevant. Namely the fact that far too often people who ought to know better assert that the ancients themselves never accepted the identification of the respective pantheons, and that the only reason that some people do today is because of the popularity of the early 20th century children’s handbooks on mythology by the likes of Thomas Bullfinch and Edith Hamilton. I can only assume that such people haven’t bothered to crack open a copy of Ovid, Vergil, Horace, or even Plutarch for that matter, but I suppose expecting literacy among people on the internet is asking for too much.
