"I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing." ~Socrates

I've never had much respect for conspiracy theorists or evangicals...but I think I've seen the big picture, and can now relate to their rantings. I'm not a Christian, nor Muslim, nor Jewish...I, in fact, do not devote my self to any religion. I do, though, devote myself to God. I believe that there will be an "end times". I believe in destiny...
Today, the House snuck through the Real ID by a vote of 368 - 58, with little protest as the bill's main purpose was to enact the $82 billion for Iraq spending.
This ID is to be in full circulation three years after Bush signs it into law (which he is expected to do). The ID is supposed to be "machine readable" (i.e.: RFID) and will contain all of your personal data (name, SS#, DL #, birth date, etc.) and, READ CAREFULLY, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO FLY, OPEN A BANK ACCOUNT, OR COLLECT SOCIAL SECURITY PAYMENTS WITHOUT IT. If Homeland Security decides to add other requirements, they can do so at their discretion!
Now, remember from my last post, when I said that the registration sticker was a precursor to the microchips implanted into your body? That is what the Real ID is. They say that it will be a card...but isn't that what a microchip is? A memory card?
Remember how I mentioned the Left Behind series, and how it used this sort of technology as the Mark of the Beast?
Another sign, according to the Bible's Revelations, is that there will be a great peace. Left Behind illustrates this as well, along with the creation of the world community and, as such, all countries are one and trade as neighbors. On this note, I want to point out that the Bush administration is pushing CAFTA hard to be put to a vote by May. Another trade agreement is Declaration of Brasilia between South American and Arab nations. Yes, Indonesia and Japan are joining together in "free trade", as well. Globalization is upon us.
I'm afraid...but I've made my choice, so no matter what may or may not happen, I'm ready. I'm just so sad that we are allowing it to happen. I'm so sad to know that every religion under God has warned us of the consequences of our actions and we have all ignored it. We have no respect for the earth, no respect for our fellow man, and not enough respect for the Divine. Sad...so sad.
Words can not descibe how heartbroken I am for every living thing on this earth. I wish I could descibe the anguish that tears through my soul over our failure with this world. The devastation is nearly unbearable...
I have to go now, but I want to sign off by letting you all know, that I wish I could make it stop. I wish I could take away all of the pain that is in the years to come. I wish...so many things...
