Publisher's Synopsis
""Two Babylons"" is a book written by Alexander Hislop that explores the origins of the Roman Catholic Church and its practices. Hislop argues that many of the customs and beliefs of the Catholic Church can be traced back to ancient Babylonian religion, particularly the worship of the god Nimrod and his wife Semiramis. Hislop provides evidence from historical and biblical sources to support his theory, including the similarities between Catholic and Babylonian religious symbols and practices. The book also delves into the history of Babylon and its influence on various cultures and religions throughout history. Overall, ""Two Babylons"" offers a controversial perspective on the origins of Catholicism and its connection to ancient pagan worship.1932.
