The Great Whore of Revelation 17 is the gross wickedness that is spread across the earth
Revelation 17:5
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
She is a direct opposite of the woman who is mentioned in Revelation 12.
Revelation 12:1
1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
Doctrine and Covenants 133:5,7,14
5 Go ye out from Babylon. Be ye clean that bear the vessels of the Lord.
...
7 Yea, verily I say unto you again, the time has come when the voice of the Lord is unto you: Go ye out of Babylon; gather ye out from among the nations, from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
...
14 Go ye out from among the nations, even from Babylon, from the midst of wickedness, which is spiritual Babylon.
Revelation 18 describes the Great Whore's demise.
Actually she is described as--the kings of the earth have commited fornication with her.( symbolic)- for years the religious leaders were hand in hand with the kings. Every mortal govt on earth is corrupt to the core. One would not cast a vote for corruption. Yet every( except 1)99.9% are false) religion teaches its ok to vote for corrupt mortal leaders. Now the govts are making it so unacceptable things to God must be accepted by all( homsexuality-transvestites,etc)-- Jesus followers do not accept it. They cast their vote for Gods appointed king.
Notice rev 18:11--The merchants stand at a distance and mourn this loss--Why--Their shelves remain full-Why-- No more religion--no more religious holidays. The 7 headed beast with 10 horns does away with her=The UN. It says the kings of the earth hand their power over to them for 1 hour( short time) to do this.
