I don't see this as a fundamental change.

Consider that the universal is the elemental, not the ideal.

Logically then, a spiritual absolute would be the essence of sentience, from which we rise, not an ideal of wisdom and judgement, from which we fell. More the light shining through the film, than the narratives played out on it.

Democracy and republicanism originated in pantheistic societies.

Ancient Israel was a monarchy.

Rome adopted Christianity as state religion, as the empire was rising from the ashes of the Republic. Basically validating The Big Guy Rules.

Monotheism served as eschatological basis for monarchy, for the next 1500 years.

When the West went back to democracy and republicanism, it required separation of church and state, culture and civics.

If you want to actually change the ways people think, then you need to examine their beliefs, not just the consequences of their actions.
