This is quite off topic, but here it goes. I'm not catholic, but I know a few things about the Bible. To answer directly to your question the woman who rides the beast is the 'False Religion World-wide Empire'. In the Bible it is represented by a whore because she has been maintaining imoral relations with Earth's kings (or governments). In History you can confirm this. Many times religion and politics had been together, wich by God's opinion (expressed in the Bible) this is wrong. Just take Jesus Christ as an example: When some jews tried to make him their king, he run away. In fact that was one of the reasons the jews rejected Christ. They were expecting a Messiah that would free them from Rome, someone that would lead them to victory over the opressor (Rome). By biblical standars the true religion should not be concerned with wordly matters (politics, army, pagan celebrations, etc). If you really want to know more drop me an email.
