The Whore of Babylon

[Louis VI the Fat]

How can one believe that the Church founded by an apostle of Christ is the 'beast of revelation'?

'tis mostly a Scottish / North Ireland belief, methinks. They're pretty serious about their sectarianism up there.

I've heard it once before, some guy preaching to me on the street. You know, standing next two big boards, 'whore of Babylon', 'end of the world', 'repent now!' and all that. But I think he was referring to the seven hills of Paris, the five slain kings as the five monarchies. Would be cool, decadent Paris bringing about the apocalypse. But I think not.


Me, I'm still convinced it refers to the Italian football team. 'Five slain kings' - that's the five World Cup finals. The seven hills are obviously Rome, where these hounds of hell celebrate their devilish accomplishments. And Materazzi has the marks of the beast tattooed all over his wretched body.
