In Mozart's 'The Magic Flute', the opera ends with the leads being inducted into a cult of Isis and Osiris. How the hell did it manage to get so popular in Catholic Vienna in 1791? Was the libretto just not seen as that important? Did they just not care that much about the pagan cultism? What gives?
