I’ve lately had the horrifying suspicion that the US is the great Babylon of Revelation. If you read its description in Revelations, it sounds a great deal like us, the most prosperous nation in history.

Indeed - and I’m leaving that possibility open as well.

Geographically & logistically speaking there’s nothing where the historical Babylon is located to make it a global commercial epic center.

I’ve read that it could be “Rome”, that it could be “allegorical”, or that it could be the “USA”.

Maybe?

Although we have been on the slide towards irrelevancy for the past 40 years or so. TBD IMHO.

I believe there are two generic Babylons described in Revelation as one in the same. They are economic and political.

I have been having the same thoughts. Also, I wonder if we’re not the nation spoken about in Jeremiah Chapters 50,51 and Isiah Chapter 18.
