I believe a great many people will be willing to get chipped in order to simplify their lives and to avoid identity theft. I can see a world in the near future where it will be very difficult to get along if you aren't properly ID'd.
Now how about this, I believe in God but I don't think the "prophets" had a one on one! It would certainly seem that the prophecies of the revelation are coming true, but where did they get their info? Please avoid bible thumping, somehow some folks had some very good info for their time and they called it religion so that it would survive many thousands of years. In your opinion where did that info come from?

The mark of the beast six hundred 3 score and 6 or 666 is very obvious to any mathematician... it is a repeating decimal that equates to 2/3. any ideas on what the 2/3rds represents?

Very good un biased thinking dirtfire. I think you are on the right track. It is a bit scary don't you think?

I'll never get the chip.
God gave John the writer of Revelation a vision. How ironic that all these prophecies are coming true. But yet people still don't believe.

As for the mark of the beast, 666, .... IF it means 2/3...... and that's just ONE interpretation, it could possibly mean 2/3 aren't going to accept the message. There are as many interpretations of "666" as there are people.
Where did the prophets get this info? Maybe from angels (or beings from another dimension, as science now thinks there could be) and these info visits were interpreted as Divine prophecy. Some people think the prophet Muhammad (and other prophets too) was a delusional epileptic. Epilepsy can cause brain phenomena that are interpreted as religious experiences.
As for getting chipped.......... if you mean micro chip implants for identification, I think it's almost inevitable. They do it to animals now, all the time. Would I like it? no.

I don't buy the argument that such chips would prevent identity theft. It might actually make it easier, since anyone standing near you could read your chip data with the right equipment, and you wouldn't even know it - including the government, which is of course the greatest perpetrator against freedom.
My life is sufficiently convenient without something like that.
