Are there historical or cultural parallels for the following concepts?

*An omnipresent knowingly evil, widely-worshipped god, who is revered and protected by a large, wealthy, military-backed hegemon*<br><br>*An openly, wildly corrupt, parasitic priestly class that runs the hegemon and controls access to the god*<br><br>*An apocalyptic text which foretells the end times, in which the god will consume humanity, and all that is left is ash and smoke*<br><br>*Extensive human sacrifice and cannibalism in the god's name, and active habitation of the priestly class in the mortal realm, in the bodies of humans*<br><br>*At least three instances of mass, city-level destruction, which have been reinterpreted by the priestly class as divine intervention, and/or a test of faith*<br><br>*A secession crisis which is threatening to split the priestly class, especially given knowingly evil the god is*<br><br>*The ongoing sexual abuse of children by the priestly class, and the large, open secret this represents to the hegemon at large*<br><br>*A historical cult of personality surrounding the prophet who the apocalyptic text claims to represent*<br><br>*Blood libel which wants for a certain ethnic minority to be wiped out, amid an ongoing festival of anti-semitism by proxy*<br><br>*An increasingly secessionist province which is being denied resources and subject to blockade, because of the threat it poses to knowingly evil god, the priestly class, and the hegemon*<br><br>*A powerful, ancient guild of assassins who have historically operated under the open patronage of the priestly class, to attack political opponents*<br><br>*A fatalistic historical determinism, in which the entire multiverse is seen as being locked in the grip of the god's design, and that individuals' choices only serve to hasten or delay the end times*<br><br>*A clerisy as a social class, whose job it is to interpret the apocalyptic text and serve as gatekeepers to the god*<br><br>*A dogmatic insistence that the knowingly evil god is, in fact, good, that evil is a mere human projection, and that free will is a delusion*<br><br>*The idea that the apocalypse is not an event, but a process, one that is already underway, and one that the priestly class are mandated to bring to a head, both imminently and through the actions human agents*<br><br>That's the sort of mostly-historical or completely fictional content I'm interested in. From the culture, history, mythology and folklore of any nation or continent.<br><br>The more specific, the better. That is to say, the more direct a parallel you can draw, the more interesting this will be. <br><br>I'm looking at everything here, from folklore through to animist beliefs, anything. <br><br>The more obscure, the better. <br><br>The most interesting thing about this project is the way that the historical secession crisis around the emperor Napoleon III resulted in an ongoing conflict between conservative Catholics, anti-clerical liberals, and especially the anarchist leftists of the Paris Commune, who were widely believed by the Radicals to be Satanists, and who were brutally suppressed by the conservative forces of the time, including through massacre, torture and forced labour, particularly targeting women and children.<br><br>Milbank's concept of a counter-blasphemous satire also seems highly relevant here, as does the work of Walter Benjamin, as well as the Messianic eschatology of the Frankfurt School.<br><br>I'm looking at various different polytheistic pantheons, especially any who were subject to colonization or cultural suppression in the modern period. I'm particularly interested in the points of commonality between Thelema and Wicca, as well as forms of satanic praxis and, especially, satanic panic, and especially in the ways that the first two were influenced by the mid-20th century occult revival, spearheaded by Aleister Crowley, Gerald Gardner and Austin Osman Spare.<br><br>I'm looking at Aztec, Hindu, Mayan, Egyptian and Norse gods who were said to have consumed humanity, and/or who were said to be the bringers of the apocalypse.<br><br>I'm looking at any historical events in which the priestly class, monarchs or governing bodies were accused of or participated in child abuse, cannibalism, human sacrifice or satanic ritual abuse.<br><br>I'm also looking at the way that, in many countries, there is a strong taboo on collectively discussing the legitimacy of a monarchy, as well as the way that this taboo is policed, both culturally and through laws or other forms of social control, and how this plays out in the context of other, different forms of rule.<br><br>I'm particularly looking at the way that monarchical cults of personality are constructed, through both consent and coercion, and how this operates in terms of the proxy relationship between the monarch and the divine. I'm interested, in other words, in the way that political authority is crystallized and maintained, often over centuries.
