[Sigia-l] Intelligent design

Radio frequency identification, or RFID, is used mainly to track goods and
is employed in payment systems like E-ZPass toll tags for cars, although
some have been implanted into humans. The "Spychips" authors suggest that a
real spiritual threat is presaged in those implants: RFID may evolve into
the "mark of the beast" referred to in the Book of Revelation.

Convincing Christians that radio tags are a glide path toward the end of
days may be a stiff challenge. For example, the Bible specifies that the
mark of the beast will appear in the right hand or forehead, both
impractical sites for human implants, according to tag vendors like Applied
Digital. And as the authors concede in "Spychips," the Bible says the mark
is 666 and "we're not sure how the 666 part fits in."

This brings up the real question: Hasn't God read Jakob on "nav bar on the
left or the right"? And if so, how could he possibly make such a blunder on
where to place 666, which obviously "doesn't test well." Amateur!
