The Greeks loved wine and animals, so they created him to represent that. The animal was a Goat.
I don't know about in modern times, but in Ancient times, virtually all Greeks believed in their gods, which we call Greek Mythology. For the Greeks, their religion was much more important in their lives than religion is for many people today. In fact, their religion was a lifestyle for them. As for modern days, I'm hazarding the guess that there are a lot less people who are greek or live in Greece that believe in ancient Greek Mythology. Hope I helped! :)
No, Dionysus is not the son of Persephone. In Greek mythology, Dionysus is the son of Zeus and the mortal woman Semele. Persephone is the daughter of Demeter and Zeus, and she is known as the goddess of the underworld and agriculture.
In Greek mythology, Zeus and Dionysus are both gods, but they represent different aspects of life. Zeus is the king of the gods and the god of the sky and thunder, while Dionysus is the god of wine, fertility, and ecstasy. They are both important figures in the Greek pantheon, but they do not have a direct familial relationship.
Some character traits of Dionysus include being associated with wine, revelry, ecstasy, and fertility. He is often depicted as joyful, passionate, and unpredictable. Dionysus is also known for his ability to inspire creativity and liberation through his wild and carefree nature.
