Again, I thank you for your patience, and apologize for my slowness.

I asked where else in the Bible "Babylon" means "confusion." It's used an awful lot, you know, in Revelations and elsewhere.

Are you saying that when Peter wrote, in Greek, "the church at Babylon" he meant "the church in confusion" because he was relying on his readers/listeners to think of the Tower of Babel?
