Just because she is hanging out with a 7 headed leopard with ears that look like devil's horns gives you no reason to disparage her. On the other hand, having a chalice of her favorite potent potable the size of her head kind of suggests a good old fashioned stoning may be in order.
ReplyDeleteHmmm...my verification word is abible - creepy.
Something in the bible about "an impure woman riding a leopard carrying a chalice of sin" blah blah blah and something else as fictional as Harry Potter.
ReplyDeleteIt's the whore of Babylon. From Revelations.
ReplyDelete"And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication."
And she's riding one of the two Beasts.
"...a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion."
Just so you know (A) Love your blog btw, I check it everyday ^_^

ReplyDeleteLooks To Me Like the Artist had Clairvoyance Enough To Predict the Advent of Angelina Jolie !!
ReplyDeleteAnd those Hybrid Tigers must be Related to the Hydra or Cerberus of Hercules Lore.
I could see this tattooed on someone's upper back.
ReplyDelete:/ Hmmm... :/ Why does the Whore of Babylon in a drawing from 1963 look like Angelina Jolie? Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteSin is eternal
ReplyDeleteBible publishers are just like any other geeks. "Screw the pictures diagramming the relationship between compassion and humility - PIANT ME SOME BEASTS! Seven-headed ten-horned BEEEEEEASTS!"
