did you not read Valis?
the Roman Empire never ended he says, not like other empires, it transformed and persisted through millennia

"The Empire" is a psychological construct and has been at war with its greatest enemy, the Christians since Jesus died.
the Empire is basically psychopathic warlike control and in PK Dick's eyes the evil entity that haunts the west.

The giant empire became a giant church

not really according to Dick
remember he was a Christian and had a sort of religious awakening which is very obvious in his writing

the Empire is the evil bureaucratic psychopathy hiding in every man

In VALIS' second book the Empire is in fact a giant church. He was more of a Gnostic Christian, which puts into perspective the whole 3 books and basically all of his career.
