These are pretty good. I don't know what people think of E. A. Wallis Budge, many of the esoteric writers were of questionable character, but I find his translations pretty intriguing. Any book on late dynasty Egyptian art will probably have good stuff on Roman-Christian influences and conquests. Coptics and other groups gouged away at temple carvings, destroying entire walls of art and culture thousands of years old, as well as placing Coptic graffiti on top of the Egyptian artwork. In some temples this messy mix of cultures creates and interesting layered effect, looking through time, akin to looking at a cross-section of the Earth in the Grand Canyon.
I don't think where did evil come from is the question of this thread. There has been different forms in cultures all over the world. It is a universe thing, just as a creation myth.
I thought this thread title dealt with specifically: age-old Satanic death cults, the boogey man that the Inquisition, Ronald Reagan, and Geraldo warned you about: are they real?
No, they aren't, and never were.

one year passes...
I do not like green eggs and ham
My soul belongs to Abalam
Hell's fire pit will soon emerge
You'll feel the sting of Apollyon's scourge
Behold the Antichrist's rebirth
His armies shall invade the Earth
Fire, screaming, gnashing teeth
Our future home, it lies beneath
As for your delicacy
It is a triviality
Put down that plate of eggs and ham
And lead the Horde, oh Sam-I-Am
