Ive started this blog because I am concerned that some pentecostal Christian churches are dismissing certain biblical precepts found throughout the old and new testaments. One I heard recently espoused during a sermon in the Gateway church was that we need not take seriously the warning about having to receive the mark as specified in Revelation. But having sat through a lecture by a visiting expert to our polytechnic on rfids I personally felt a chill run down my spine when I learnt what these chips are capable of doing.
And how they are already in widespread use and furthermore will be attached to everything made or naturally occurring as part of a plan to number the entire contents of planet earth. According to our visiting lecturer it’s just down to cost. When the cost per rfid unit gets low enough they will be attached to everything. So to me it seems a small leap to say they will also be attached to people. You already gave them inside your electronic passports and these are able to “talk” to readers situated throughout the countries of those who insist overseas visitors have them as a condition of entry.
And to take a step further and restrict commerce to only those who possess a permanently attached rfid type chip would be a natural progression in an increasingly regulated and controlled world.
If you are involved in any tech rollouts that are along these lines Id love to hear from you more details about how far along this road we are New Zealanders are.
