This ever-present trait arises from the Babylonian system's dependence upon the [[priest]]'s judicial power to examine its subjects in the Babylonian deity's name. In theory, the Babylonian deity, using various names worldwide and personified in the state or its demagogue, invested his priests with the power to examine the consciences of devotees by whatever means necessary, granting absolution or condemnation according to their imperious pleasure. By entrusting themselves to a totalitarian state, the Babylonian settlers established statism."

 <Br>The [[Babylon]]ian system was a "[[One purse]]" system based on the "[[covetous practices]]" of "[[legal charity]]" leading to [[socialism]] with [[Nimrod]]'s officers of his [[welfare state]] as the [[Benefactors]] of [[society]]. <Br>The way society "mingles" or "[[Entangled|entangles]]" itself in the "[[elements]]" of the "[[world]]" relates to [[the way]] the [[masses]] provide [[Social welfare]], which may [[degenerate]] them into [[perfect savages]] through becoming accustomed to the [[covetous practices]] of the [[world]]. [[Nimrod]]'s city and tower was to provide [[protection]] in the form of a "[[social security]]" system that would make the people [[merchandise]], returning them to the [[bondage of Egypt]]. ]]
