The Whore of Babylon is likely the “base” being the Catholic Church - with an adulterous combination of other false religions. The Catholic Church has what other religions don’t - which is an actual mini-state and thus political ambassadors in almost all nations around the world.
The Catholic Church is a perfect “base” for a WHORING RELIGION!
AND with people like Rick Warren and Joel Osteen, that adds the Protestant part of the WHORING RELIGION.

When God’s chosen people decided to do their own thing and follow pagan ways, God let their enemies destroy them. Now we Christians, the new chosen people of the New Testament, have to ask ourselves if we aren’t going down the same path, with our embrace of pornography, Freemasonry, homosexuality, artificial contraception, cloning, embryonic stem cell research, assisted suicide, adultery, fornication, gluttony, disrespect for the sabbath, love of money, etc., over Jesus. If the answer is yes, then we can expect destruction by our enemies as well. 9/11 may have been a harbinger of what is in store for us. Only by embracing Jesus and His Church can we expect to escape the doom we have created for ourselves by walking down the same path as ancient Jews, who wandered in the desert for 40 years after worshipping a false God, and who saw their great city and culture destroyed in 70 AD for forsaking God and embracing the ways of pagan Rome. May God have mercy on us all.
