The Christian Book of Revelation describes a bottomless pit of damnation which is presided over a destroying angel named Abaddon who seems to ensure that the pit does not swallow the universe.

Hollywood (USA) films such as "The Wolf of Wall Street" [2013] suggest that human beings create realms or arenas of extra-normal behavior based on profiteerism.

When we go to church, we may feel nervous about our sins and think that we may have to pay for our sins and that we can not afford to pay for our sins. We may feel that our spiritual confidence is spiraling downward, perhaps leading to some 'bottomless pit' as described in Revelation.

If we're fired from our jobs, perhaps we feel the stigma of lost opportunity and welfare. We may even feel 'branded' by society as inept or invalid and need to seek state charity.

Perhaps the bottomless pit described in Revelation is related to a yearning for control over fate.

Does this explain the popularity of angst-themed American comic book characters such as The Punisher (Marvel Comics) and Deadpool (Marvel Comics)? Comic books do, after all, speak to a pedestrian yearning (for justice, for adventure, etc.).

The television series Lucifer (Fox TV) is an adaptation of the comic book character Lucifer Morningstar (DC Comics), an allusion to the Christian Devil (Satan or Lucifer), and represents a new age interest in pedestrian occultism.

Well, it's interesting that DC and tv networks are currently focused on glorifying Lucifer; immediately preceding the announcement of Lucifer, a network canceled a Biblical themed show, despite decent ratings; TNT canceled Proof, despite decent ratings, and, the CW canceled a Christian end time show immediately after the pilot showing. But, they're really pushing to make sure Lucifer works out, and AMC made every effort to air Preacher. The networks and DC are fascinated with the idea of God somehow perishing (e.g. the newly rebooted Lucifer comic, where, apparently, Lucifer and Gabriel are supposed to find and conquer this being), and creating the worst type of PIS to accomplish it (e.g. someone devising a plan or having prep time against someone who's omnipresent and all knowing, which would be completely impossible; there's no way to surprise someone who's omnipresent, as He's literally looking at you and reading your mind, while you're prepping for the encountered).

just gotta out prep the foreseen prepper that is prepping to out prep your current prep.

Seems pretty straight forward to me tbh.
