“This I believe is the Anti-Christ and as it says in verse 16 and 17: "He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead.....”
I notice that no one seems concerned that this prophecy includes slaves. Shouldn’t Christains be kinda rejoicing that the AntiChrist can’t hand out the mark because we don’t have slaves? Or should they be trying their hardest to bring slavery back so they can have their tribulation?
“That would have to be an ID of some sort. You can't fake it.”
Ever see ‘Gattaca?’ Where the guy faked his DNA?
If it’s technology, someone will be finding a way to spoof it, fake it, subvert it, or forge it.
“ Could they implant a barcode into your head? With today's technology, any kind of ID could be possible.”
Do you not know what a barcode IS? How the fuck does the scanner see the bars INSIDE YOUR HEAD?
“It would have to be on your body as you can't get rid of it and it specifies right hand and forehead.”
’Where’s your ID?’
‘Probably in my right hand.’
’Where’s your right hand?’
‘SOmewhere under the Hurmuz Strait. I was a Marine in the 15th Gulf War and…’
“If it will definitely be on your body, and this question is for those who are fashionable, how would you be able to use it in fashion?”
We can’t know how fashion will grow around it until we know WHAT it is, and why it’s there.
Fashion can either try to hide it or draw attention to it. Not many other choices.
So you have to ask, is it going to be popular because we all support the charismatic individual who marks us, or are we going to resent the asshole who swears it’s necessary?
