I wonder if there's a throughline involving the release of agency. It's not your fault you found yourself down a rabbithole of catgirl porn: they're the new nymphs, and nobody can resist the nymphs. Your choices aren't relevant. You were bewitched. It's not your fault. None of it's your fault. Powers beyond you just do stuff to you, and you don't have any control over your life, so pretending you do is a waste of time. That's pretty Greek-mythy, too.

So atheist materialism requires sufficient surrounding Christianity in order to stave off the Old Gods...

Hmmmm. A good premise for a fantasy series if nothing else.
