No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

However, I think that the Tower of Babel was more about that pride being a coming together of ALL peoples in a common cause against God's authority on earth.

I think the building of the European Union, which involves the coming together of more nations than ever before to build a society 'Not' based on the acceptance of God's laws and teachings, infact a deliberate attempt to reject them, and 'Making things difficult' for those who want to hold fast to Gods laws' is so very much a 'new Babel'!!! Mystery Babelon, the spirit of rebellion at it's fullest is coming and I'm sure eventually the EU's boundries will spead global as it asserts it's authority once built.

Now, when a Christians holds on to the truths from God's word, instead of compromising truth. We are seen as fundamental, and so therefore in the way of progress and lumped together with true extremism that causes harm.

For too long have the evolutionists taught in our schools and on our tv channels on only a theory! A theory that has failed to provide one single piece of proof in over 150 years.

It's a ship that sank long ago, but they will not let it go, because to do so points them back to a creator! And that points to their sin and need for a saviour, which their pride will not allow!!!

God knew this time would come;

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Soon we will be purescuted for holding onto the truth. We (officially) won't be legally allowed to claim that Jesus is the only way to God, or that sins like homosexuality is immoral;
