Because the woman is called "The Mother" she is the original of many other entities like her. These entities are her daughters who also must be like her a Prostitute.
All the denomnations spawned by the World Wide Public Church of old, the Roman Catholic Church are seen as the daughters of the Mother.
1.) The Mother is a place of captivity where millions of God's children through the ages have been carried AWAY from their spiritual Good Land. So there is a great mixture in this Woman of unbelievers with believers.
2.) Because she is the Mother, she has offspring who are like herself. So it says out from her have been spawned [b}Prostitutes[/b] [plural].
This is the most historically old World Wide Public Church with the denominations which were spawned out from her in history. To one degree or another they usually carried with their departure some element of sameness in characteristic with the Mother.
3.) I use to the it was too harsh to call the Mother the Prostitutes also mother to the Abominations of the earth. But I now think that the most evil things done on earth are the things done with an apparent connection with the Gospel of Christ. Because the truth is perverted and passed with evil it is of all evils more so - "the Abominations of the earth".
4.) the Woman has been involved in the murder of the saints of God. Of course in history corrupted Christianity's inquisitions murdered many believers. Many Christians were killed in religious persecution.
The Great Mother of Prostitutes is "drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus.". This should mean the religious persecution and murders of genuine Christians by the Apostate Church.

"And upon her forehead a name was written, Mystery, Babylon the Great, the Mother of the Prostitutes and the Abominations of the Earth.
And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus.
And I marveled, seeing her, with great marvel." (Rev. 17:5,6)
