What I struggle with is how people like this can develop things like this.

Just about everyone know about the story in Revelations regarding the mark of the beast.

I am not terribly Christian per se, don't get me wrong, I love GOD, but structured religion was created by man, and that is something I do not subscribe to.

However, you cannot get more doom prophecy fulfilling than this. Most people are Christians and that another human being would create a human tagging device, goes against even the slightest belief in Christian doctrine.

I just don't understand, the only reason to develop this is that you do believe in the prophecy and are all for the other side.
