f you are going to tell me that "Babylon" was a code word for "Rome", then why didn't Paul use that code word or another one for Rome.

This is another argument from silence, and hence another fallacy.

Perhaps a logical fallacy in a certain system of logic . . . for whatever that may be worth--which many times, is less than nothing . . . in that it leads to incorrect assumptions and conclusions AS WELL.

The assertions which are presumed or construed to be from silence, and therefore wrong . . . can quite often be TRUE. It's just that silence doesn't offer much to support them "objectively," whatever that means.
