Hello George,
GP>from the book of Revelation
GP> SA> U-WIRE) -"He causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor,
GP> SA> free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their
GP> SA> foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save that had the
GP> SA> mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name."
GP>I see you have the older/original English translation ("in the hand"
GP>rather than the newer translations that consistently say "on the
hand")
GP>Seems that when the knowledge of a chip came into being a powerful force
GP>bigger than EVERY Church & religious publisher caused this small change
GP>to be made, to provide a means of misdirection ("on" the
hand implies a
GP>tattoo, not a chip!)
GP>I checked with a Biblical Greek scholar who says, in the Greek, either
GP>preposition is accurate.
GP>So the intent does seem to be clear that there'll be a scannable
GP>computer chip that will contain one's 'money' and record of use thereof.
GP>It makes sense in some ways -- if all money is on a chip(ie. no
GP>more "cash") that puts an end to a lot of crime!
GP>Let's say I'm a drug addict, and I rob a house, stealing some jewellery,
GP>etc. -- how do I translate those into drugs, if I can't sell them, and
GP>neither can my fence or dealer?
Steal the hand. ;)
