ZNPaaneah, that suggests an issue with the way you write, it is open to misinterpretation.

This is a great point, what really caused God's judgement to fall on Sodom was the lack of any righteous men. God had said that if there had been 10 he wouldn't have destroyed it.
Equating the US with Sodom could only be done if you could argue that in any given city we had less than 10 righteous people.
You were hesitant to equate the US with Sodom. Not as hesitant to call it Jezebel:
"To me, Jezebel is the spirit and nature of the current worldly system."
I am not saying the worldly system is good it is clearly bad. I am saying Jezebel normally has something to do with the people of God. I don't believe the worldly system is Jezebel is correct for that reason, even though the worldly system does exemplify many of the things Jezebel represents. I would say the worldly system is influenced by Jezebel through the Roman Catholic church. I would say Protestantism has been influenced by Jezebel to a limited extent (in as much as they accept the doctrines/practices of Catholicism). But I would not say the worldly system is Jezebel.
