Rome, mother of harlots.

Revelation 17 New King James Version (NKJV)
The Scarlet Woman and the Scarlet Beast
17 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and talked with me, saying to me,a]'>[a] “Come, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, 2 with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication.”

3 So he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. 4 The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication.b]'>[b] 5 And on her forehead a name was written:

MYSTERY, ROME THE GREAT,
THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS
AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS
OF THE EARTH.

6 I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with great amazement.

15 Then he said to me, “The waters which you saw, where the harlot sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and tongues. 16 And the ten horns which you saw ond]'>[d] the beast, these will hate the harlot, make her desolate and naked, eat her flesh and burn her with fire. 17 For God has put it into their hearts to fulfill His purpose, to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled. 18 And the woman whom you saw is that great city which reigns over the kings of the earth.”

The book of Revelation is a load of fanciful garbage, which some interpret in the craziest of ways. Apparently that book nearly didn't make it into the Bible when it was put together.

What are you talking about?
 
In Great Britain the Christians make America fight against Rome which is located according to GB in Italy. In Sweden however the church tries to rebuild Rome on New York. In middle east the churches try to rebuild Rome in Jersualem.

America is the land were dreams come true, To have a dream you need to sleep, and that is why I said that your nation has put you to sleep. War is only there on the television. The war against drugs were over as soon as police officer made the claim of usage of hemp and apples. And the war against terror ended when Donovan, Buffy Saint Mari and Joan Boez got their revival in northern sweden.

As to how do you get Rome out of Revelation 17, when there is no where in Revelation 17, that says anything about Rome. And not only that, if you go back to the beginning of Babylon, You will find Babylon had it's start with Nimrod, which was called the tower of Babel.
And then come up to prophet Daniel's time, now it's called Babylon.

The question is, is how did the Roman Catholic Church get all the way back to Nimrod at the tower of Babel ?
And then to prophet Daniel's day ?

You say that Babylon the great the mother of Harlots being the Roman Catholic Church, so how did the Roman Catholic Church get all the way back to the tower of Babel of Nimrod ?
And at prophet Daniel's day ?

I have as of yet to find any mentioning of the Roman Catholic Church.

That crazy book is interpreted in so many ways, all of them nonsense. I wonder if the guy who wrote it was as a high as a kite on a substance, which would be illegal today?

That's because you don't understand what the book of Revelation is about.

Seeing you don't understand the book of Revelation, But yet you criticize what you don't understand.

Do you know anything about a scorpion, what happens when a person or anything, is stung by the scorpions tail ?
In the book of Revelation it speaks about the scorpions. The scorpions makes a person or anything it stings weak of not knowing what's really happening around them.

The scorpion represents people, who when they talk spreading their falsehood of lies, it weakens people of their deadly lies, that people are not even aware of the being fooled and then when their prey is set they strike them dead with their venomous lies.
Just like the scorpions do.

Like Islam, they talk how they are a religion of peace,But yet trying to convince people by their falsehood of lies they are a religion of peace. But yet commit Terrorist acts around the world.

This is what scorpions do, make their prey think they are harmless, But in the end the scorpion strikes their prey dead. With their falsehood of being harmless.

And you understand it do you, or make it fit your take on the faith, which is much more likely?

A person faith has nothing to do with it, it's all about using your Brian to figure out certain things, such as Locust how do they work, such as scorpions, such as beasts works
All these things, only takes common sense to figure out, but I guess that's beyond your understanding.

I understand it better than you do, seeing how all you do is criticze what you don't understand.
It's not hard, if you have any understanding how animals and insects work.
You then may wonder why does the book of Revelation have animals and insects representing people, to have people like you look foolish, of not knowing anything about animals or insects work

It is quite clear you don't understand it, and make it up as you go along.
