Wow, Tom. I'm really impressed. Like, really, really. I'm particularly drawn to the slant rhymes between saints, rein and imminent. The restraint is commendable as well. This is an easy topic to overdo, and you've managed it expertly. Can I borrow your socks? It's only fair, seeing as you've knocked mine clean off xD Again, wow. Great work.

Such a vivid image you paint with your words. Not a pretty picture to behold ! I know a harlot in the bible that *did* change her ways. My best to you Tommy ! Hugs, Brandy

Just did some research I guess Mary has been depicted as one but the Bible is not specific on it. Thx Brandy. Yes, Rahab made some good choices at Jericho. Re: Babylon the Great, you're spot on with your interpretation. I've never heard anyone other than JWs state that

Mary Magdalene wasn't a harlot. Rahab was and she changed her ways. Babylon is described as a ' great prostitute ' who is drunk with the blood of the saints, representing the world empire of false religion.

Yes, Mary Magdalene. Sadly, Babylon the Great will never change her ways. Thx Brandy
