The dragon, and all the evil, is descriptive of the Roman empire.   But, of course, the fact that absolutely nobody on the planet can actually say what this work of drivel MEANS proves to me that it doesn't mean ANYTHING of ANY IMPORTANCE other than it's moronic drivel, and there is certainly no deity involved.

 Since you had nothing noteworthy to say I'll say this, nothing, it makes as much sense as what you said.

Wow, you couldn't even come up with sources for a competing interpretation? 5 minutes with a Google search would have given you a dozen that you could have thrown back at me, complete with proper sources.  And the only thing you come up with is a wave of the hand and a dismissal?  I'm SO impressed by your tunnel vision buried in concrete biblical knowledge, it's SO compelling.
