[wordup] the mark of the beast ...

[Adam Shand]

Well I never thought I'd be happy about Christian propaganda, but maybe
the legend of the "mark of the beast" will help keep us all safe for a
little while longer.  This shit's worthy of hysteria.

America's Identity Crisis And The Coming National I.D. Chip

By: Terry L. Cook

"We are not part of a military program to implant [biochip I.D.] tags in
humans. In fact, we are not part of any plan to implant transponder tags
in humans. But a glass encapsulated animal tag only begs the question of
the definition of what kind of animal, and if that definition is a
'mammal,' certainly it would include man. Are humans running around
somewhere on the globe with tags---radio-frequency tags---implanted in
them?

Yes! Absolutely, conclusively so!"

Donald G. Small, Vice-President
Hughes Identification Devices, SouthernCalifornia
Excerpted from the video "The Mark of the New World Order"

Is there a plan to biometrically identify everyone in America, first with
an identity card, then with an injected identity chip in the hand? Will
only those implanted with this unique electronic identification "mark" be
permitted to buy and sell while the rest of us are hunted down as outcasts
in the coming global government called the New World Order? Will these
biochip implants eventually become The-Mark-of-the-New-WorldOrder? Will
they control and enslave us electronically? Yes! Absolutely, conclusively
so!

In recent years, a lot of progress has been made in the area of
implantable biochip technology. The above quote from Mr. Small suggests
that we are crossing the line between animal and human applications, and
Hughes Identification Devices has been at the forefront of this
development. Effective August 29,1993, the Safe Medical Devices
Registration Act requires all prosthetic medical implants in humans to be
identified with a rice-size biochip-the same kind that is being implanted
in animals---which contains vital information. Hughes Identification
Devices is the main supplier of these medical biochips. A recent article
in Popular Science magazine titled, Future Watch: Body Binary (October,
1994) predicts, "Within the next ten years, we'll have miniature computers
inside us to monitor and perhaps even control our blood pressure, heart
rate, and cholesterol. Within twenty years, such computers will correct
visual and hearing signals, making glasses and hearing aids obsolete."

As technology advances, the various uses for microchips and biochips seems
to be limited only by our imagination---a truly frightening thought given
the humanistic, socialistic, Orwellian-type society in which we live.
Today, the most popular application of the implantable biochip transponder
is for the purpose of animal, or pet, identification. But the day is not
far off when Big-Brother's New-World-Order global government will "tag"
humans with the same "animal" biochips.
