Babylon doesn't mean someone was a pagan or instilled with pagan values......Babylon is doomed later on, but for the time of Cyrus & especially after Alexander it becomes a great thriving city filled with busy commerce, law, civic structure, ordered rule & culture once again.
We know its hard for you to grasp, but you live in a state right now where 'pagan values' are almost universal, you might even be watching football game today. Your judicial system & gov't and the cultural ideas involving art, humanities & science, freedom of speech, more than one can count, lets also not forget the Golden Rule which you Texans are so proud of.
Or was it do unto them, before they do unto you? ;0) |
