Right hand or forehead?  BTC symbol?

lmfao I read that in the special doge voice and sarcastic voice. it cracked me up.

Perhaps.  I think that because of the anonymity of BTC governments may run into problems taxing the use of it and therefore some ruler (aka anti-christ) will come up with the brilliant "solution" and require all people on earth to have a tattoo on their hand or forehead so that the buying and selling of all goods can be traced and taxed.  I guess some will say that the good news is that there will finally be a "flat tax" in place! The bad news is that this ruler, as the Bible foretells, will say he is all for "peace" and the good of humanity but he will wage a war on Christians.  Of course much of the world will rejoice in this, as they already do when Christians are "put in their place."  It is just the spirit of the anti-christ that is already at work among us.

As a Christian I am not afraid of BTC and think it is wise to have to have some.  Of course I will never take a mark on my hand to buy and sell.  They will have to kill me first.  But I do value the anonymity.  It could be valuable someday.


Also, I am pretty sure it will be a bar-code.  Almost all nations already have scanners in place that can read bar codes.  All bar-codes have a "666" hidden in them in that there are identical lines in the front, middle and end without a "number" on them but they coincide with what a "6" looks like.  Just google bar-code 666 and you can research this.

Children's fairy tales should be in "off topic"

Children's fairy tales should be in "off topic"

People are willing to die for this "fairy tale" as you call it. 

This true story of a persecuted girl really humbled me:

16 years old, Asia 1970s – The Communist soldiers had discovered their illegal bible study. As the Pastor was reading from the bible, men with guns suddenly broke into the home, terrorizing the believers who had gathered to worship. They shouted insults and threatened to kill the Christians. The leading officer pointed his gun at the pastor’s head. “Hand me your bible” he demanded. Reluctantly the pastor handed over his bible, his prized possession. With a sneer on his face, the guard threw the bible to the floor. He glared at the small congregation. “We will let you go” he growled, “but first you must spit on this book of lies. Anyone who refuses will be shot.” The believers had no choice but to obey the officer’s order. A soldier pointed his gun at one of the men. “You first”. The man slowly got up and knelt down by the Bible. Reluctantly, he spat on it, praying, “Father, please forgive me.” He stood up and walked to the door. The soldiers stood back and allowed him to leave. “Okay, you!” the soldier said, nudging a woman forward. In tears, she could barely do what he demanded. She spat only a little, but it was enough. She too was allowed to leave. Quietly a young girl came forward. Overcome with love for her Lord, she knelt down and picked up the bible. She wiped off the spit with her dress. “What have they done to your Word? Please forgive them,” she prayed. The Communist soldier put his pistol to her head and pulled the trigger

If the Bible is not true why would anyone be willing to give their life up because of it!?  See: http://www.historymakers.info/inspirational-christians/jesus-freaks.html

Uh... No.

The most sold (factual) book ever is a Chinese dictionary, not the Bible.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_books

The Bible, the Qur'an and Quotations from Chairman Mao are widely reported as some of the most printed and also some of the most distributed books worldwide, with hundreds of millions of copies of each of them believed to be in existence. Exact print figures for some such books may also be missing or unreliable since these kinds of books may be produced by many different and unrelated publishers, in some cases over many centuries.

(...)

So, please, next time think before to post anything in this section. This is not a place to discuss your religion of choice.

Nope, there is no hidden numbers in a bar code. Stop the spread of misinformation, please.

What happened to the girl is of course horrible, a crime, a war crime. The tapestry of human history is soaked in blood and there are countless examples of such events. Yet, none of that history is relevant here.

Likewise. BitChick, I share your enthusiasm about Bitcoin, but please stop with such interpretations.

I hate to be the anti-religious ass around here, but I had to snicker at that comment.

In any case, if Bitcoin interferes with your religious views, your best bet is to stay away from it.

Bitcoin isn't anonymous.

Governments WILL force Bitcoin users to "register" the Bitcoin addresses they use.

Any Bitcoin addresses not registered will be monitored and probably traced to the source.

You can call it mark of the beast, I call it security.

Also, the bible has been translated too many times for it to have ANY credibility what so ever.

Anyone who "believes in" stuff in the bible hasn't done any proper research on how it came into existence.
