Read the link I provided... it is rather different from the modern atheist's version of mithras.The former criticism is of the claim tht the Gospels were first-hand accounts. Noone claims that Cumont had first-hand experiance with the Mysteries of Mithras.
.
I'm not sure where you get this, but all the sources I have read (alas, Wikipedia is currently down) state that Mithras was physicall born from a physical virgin (an event witnessed only by shepherds, no less).
