And we have our Babylonian connection just as I knew I'd find....

Right here is ONE of MANY Babylonian conections of the RCC.

...

The Pope wears a Hat called a mitre

the word Mitra (Mitre) comes from A semi-formal Babylonian Head dress and babylonian Priest wore them - the Chaldeans - stargazers (ofcourse the Church has a stargazing observatory)

...

Starting with the dictionary ....
