This "Babylon the Great" is not a political or commercial organization

  1

Revelation 17:1, 2
And there came one of the seven angels that had the seven bowls, and spake with me, saying,
Come hither, I will show thee the judgment of the great harlot that sitteth upon many waters;
2 with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication,
and they that dwell in the earth were made drunken with the wine of her fornication.

  2

Revelation 18:9
And the kings of the earth, who committed fornication and lived wantonly with her,
shall weep and wail over her, when they look upon the smoke of her burning,

  3

Revelation 18:11, 15
And the merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, for no man buyeth their merchandise any more;
15 The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her,
shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning;

False Religion is Identified by:

her immoral relationship with the world leaders
shows that she cannot be a political organization and
since the "the merchants of the earth." mourn,
she also cannot be a commercial power.
