The Two Babylons

Focusing on the historical connections between ancient Babylon and modern Catholicism, Alexander Hislop presents a compelling argument that the Catholic Church's traditions stem from Babylonian practices. Using biblical references and archaeological findings, he draws parallels between the rituals of Nimrod and Semiramis and those of the Catholic Church. First published in 1853, Hislop's work sparked controversy for its critical stance on Catholicism, and its theories remain subjects of debate today.
