Your personal triggers and squicks do not get to determine what kind of art other people make.
People make shit. It's what we do. We make shit to explore, to inspire, to explain, to understand, but also to cope, to process, to educate, to warn, to go, "hey, wouldn't that be fucked up? Wild, right?"
Yes, sure, there are things that should be handled with care if they are used at all. But plenty more things are subjective. Some things are just not going to be to your tastes. So go find something that is to your tastes and stop worrying so much about what other people are doing and trying to dictate universal moral precepts about art based on your personal triggers and squicks.
I find possession stories super fucking triggering if I encounter them without warning, especially if they function as a sexual abuse metaphor. I'm not over here campaigning for every horror artist to stop writing possession stories because they make me feel shaky and dissociated. I just check Does The Dog Die before watching certain genres, and I have my husband or roommate preview anything I think might upset me so they can give me more detail. And if I genuinely don't think I can't handle it, I don't watch it. It's that simple.

thinkin abt the line "you think the time that i was chaste was being waste on a holy mission?" her defining characteristic throughout the show is her devotion to her religion, only for her to describe it all as a waste in the end
imagine you spend your entire life being good, being so so good, faithful- only for that faith and all of your goodness to be the direct cause of your downfall. if she didn't feel so much shame and anger in regards to her attraction to max, she never would have come up with the plan to prank him, which never would have led to his death, which never would have led to her having to give up her chastity after his resurrection.
imagine all of your doubts and fears becoming real. and in your darkest moment, at your rock bottom, when you are completely alone, abandoned by the very god you've pledged your life to, you find a new set of gods. gods that are real, gods that are tangible. gods that can give you back the power that you lost. gods that can give you back your purpose.
