We can always do rock, paper, scissors.
I think we need Lizard and Spock.
It’s very simple. Look, scissors cuts paper. Paper covers rock. Rock crushes lizard. Lizard poisons Spock. Spock smashes scissors. Scissors decapitates lizard. Lizard eats paper. Paper disproves Spock. Spock vaporizes rock. And as it always has, rock crushes scissors.
The logic is impeccable.

We're discussing the Anti-Christ of Revelation in the Nuclear/WW3 thread downstream here. The issue of the Mark of the Beast came up. Here's my question.

If it were to turn out that you needed a mark of some kind in whatever form (Chip, card, facial recognition, fingerprint, some form of online banking that held Trump's identifier or MAGA or SS# even possibly changed so the first 3 numbers were 666), in order to buy and sell...do you think you'd take it? Maybe imagine that your family is starving.

If yes, why?
If no, why?

Note: I am NOT assuming that Trump is the Anti-Christ of Revelation. It could be a successor or someone we haven't even thought of or know about yet.

We're not out to nail anyone on this thread or get nasty. I'm just curious what you think you'd do in that situation and what your reasoning might be. We're not talking about instructions to Believers either. Just you guys who have no belief in God or the Bible.

No pressure to do this.
No chasing anyone down you guys.
No put up or shut up deals either.

If you want to arm wrestle someone abouthis--->go start your own thread.
If you want to here a very interesting theory on this from a believing Latter Day Saint and scholar who is willing to talk about things we'd never be allowed to talk about in Church pertaining to the book of Revelations, the Apocrypha, and what this tells us about the last days prophecies, you've gotta listen to Michael B. Rush's podcast Black Swan Rising on spotify. I think you'd be comfortable with it since you have some experience with Latter Day Saints and our beliefs. It's for believing Christians like yourself as well. I'm not saying you have to believe everything in it, but I think it'd be worth your time.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

666 was 616 in the Latin manuscripts and maps precisely then in Greek using Hebrew gematria, "Neron Caesar" (Greek spelling) totals 666, while "Nero Caesar" (Latin spelling) totals 616. So we know actually who that was about.

Nero.
