In respect to your project reconciling Abrahamic and pagan monotheism, how would a future amalgam monotheism not suffer the pitfalls of existing monotheism, which is to say, depend upon mediators/priests who often act like petty dictators, who then come together to demonize anyone not of the religion?

I don't have an answer to that yet. I don't usually begin these projects with clear answers in mind, I'm exploring as I go!
Well our current problem isn't that Christian leaders are too quick to demonize, it's that too many of them are unwilling to call out lies and evil.
Agreed.
