It is odd how those religious practices carried over into conquering kingdoms. There is a spiritual reason for it, being a satanic system built into what is now kabala and sun worship given to the magi who made contact with fallen angels for this knowledge/mind control device, a replacement religion to God's original plan for us all. They need this false religious system including evolution to control the world. Without the deception God's Word would shine through as truth.

All foretold in the Saviour's prophecies which give characteristics through symbology, identifying the Roman Empire as being Babylonian.
