eschatohierophobia

From eschatology, the philosophy of end of times or latter days, and hieros, meaning holy or priest, thus eschatohierophobia means a pathological fear of or an unreasoning hatred towards the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and its members, including splinter and apostate groups.

Opponents of California Proposition 8 singled out the Latter-day Saints for payback, though the proposition would have passed without them. The opponents need professional help to deal with their eschatohierophobia.

Eschatonism

Eschatonism is a philosophical and revolutionary leftist ideology that confronts the harsh realities of global struggles and suffering while promoting active engagement to alleviate universal pain. Rooted in the left-wing tradition, it champions the unity of the working class against oppressive forces, discarding conventional divisions like patriotism. Emphasizing a strategic, non-violent yet militant approach, Eschatonism advocates for infiltrating and transforming existing institutions. Its pragmatic and dynamic outlook encourages socialists to strategically use electoral systems against the very system they aim to change. Eschatonism finds resonance with the ideas of thinkers such as Lenin, Philipp Mainlander, Nick Land, Karl Marx, Mark Fisher, and Terence McKenna. The Eschaton is Metaphorically the End of the World (I.e. The End of Capitalism) And Global Liberation from Capitalism this is a Synthesized Motif from L/Accelerationism and Terence Mckenna.

Eschatonism does not Exist, But has Always Existed.
