    In Sweden, thousands of people have had microchips inserted into their hands. The chips are designed to access users' homes, offices and gyms by swiping their hands against digital readers.https://n.pr/2yrb7Ko

        Third time this story has been on my feed. Each time the headline tells me more about it. This one tries to make this seem useful. Not today SATAN. Make them stop.

        I remember when I was religious and they were always trying to scare us about, "The mark of the beast" being something like this

        I hate to break it to the "Christians", well, no I don't, but every single one of us, including the Christians themselves have already been born with this so-called "mark of the Beast".

        That scared me too. But we got used to it, didn't we. We'll get used to this too and before you know it, you won't be able to buy food unless you have this.

        Wait, are we saying nope to the chips, or to religionists spouting scripture that had zero cultural context for this?

        Oh brilliant! Anyone given any thought to whether these will be OK if someone needs magnetic resonance imaging? I certainly hope so.
