I know about how this can be seen as a forerunner of the "Mark of the Beast," but I say bring it on. If it helps us get rid of the "rif raf" in this country and give it back to those of us who try to earn a living, then more power to them.
and those who take the mark shall do it willingly and decide knowingly which side they belong...
i believe we live in a country that gives us the constitutional right to overthrow it... or try to any how...
the citizens shouldn't have to make it easy for the government to oppress them... the bill of rights is supposed to make it more difficult.
