I am curious how familiar Catholics are with Queen Semiramis, wife of Nimrod (who attempted to build the Tower of Babel).
"Now, we have a woman in history who's forming a religion that is the opposite, the counterpart, the shadow of the true religion of God.
Now, what do we know about Nimrod's wife's religion? Well, she shrewdly conceived this religion based on the promises of Genesis 3:15. And here's what she did. She claimed that she gave birth to a son whom she said was miraculously conceived. In other words he was not the son of Nimrod. She had an "immaculate" conception. She had a virgin birth.
She also claimed that she was a part of the religious system; and so all the symbols of her religion, all the icons of her religion showed a mother and a child, the Madonna and child.
So, there was a woman--her--who was the center of her religion and the child she gives birth to (she claims) as a virgin.
