    Since this term was coined thousands of years ago, the actors have come and gone but the play continues.

    It's pretty clear the original was Rome. In the modern day, we have several candidates for this title. We can assume that it's not so much a single nation as it is a group of nations. NATO, the UN, etc.

    You can bet Israel has a starring role. That, has never changed.

    "Earthly Jerusalem" is interesting.

    The Whore of Babylon?
    The whore represents the false religions of Satan’s world, which have their origin in the ancient city of Babylon.

    Sheffield. It's bult on 7 hills, and most of the steel used by Brtish soldiers to skewer their opponents throughout the builing of the empire and in two world wars was forged there. In C19. it closely resembled hell with it's hundreds of furnaces, continuous clouds of foul smoke etc.

    If so what about the other religions which existed prior to Babylon such as Mesopotamia, Sumer etc?

    Babylon when it was a world empire gathered all those false religions together unto itself and made them its own and thus became a world center of false religion.

    But in any case the false religious teachings that identify the false religions of Satan’s world could all be found in the false religions of ancient Babylon.

    You understand the lesson, but do you understand the moral of the story?

    It isn't the ability to decide what is a false religion or not.

    It's the ability to know that all religions are false.

    None of the above. :)

    You're almost right, the true answer is all but one. ;)

    RCC: Whore of Babylon for 500 years :rolleyes:

    I am proud to be one of the many collecting names for the Vatican super-computer for the re-Inquisition.
