One Chip Closer to Armageddon

Saturday July 19, 2003
AP says: 'Borrowing from technology for tracking pets, a U.S. company on Thursday launched Mexican sales of microchips that can be implanted under a person’s skin and used to confirm health history and identity.'  The company is Applied Digital Solutions Inc. and the product is called the VeriChip. According to one interpretation of the Book of Revelation, implanted ID chips constitute the prophesied Mark of the Beast, a sign of the Antichrist. Skeptics may find this amusing, but, trust me, to believers it's no laughing matter.
