SUTTER, Calif. Is it Big Brother -- or no big deal?

The only grade school in Sutter, California, is requiring students to wear radio frequency identification badges that have the potential for tracking their every move. Some parents are outraged, fearing it will rob their children of their privacy.

The badges were introduced at Brittan Elementary School last month without parental input. It's seen as a way to simplify attendance-taking and potentially reduce vandalism and improve student safety.

Civil libertarians and some parents are protesting. But the principal is dismissing concerns. He says for now, the devices merely confirm that each child is in his or her classroom, rather than track them around the school like a global-positioning device.

Lord though, add a electric shock button on the desk, and my substituting would be 100 times more fun!

Been to a public school lately?
Schools are responsible for the children during school hours. Kid runs out of class gets shot, guess who's responsible? School and the teacher. Happened at my high-school.
What freedom are they losing? The school knows where they are. Well as long as they are where they should be, who loses out?
Hell its not even really tracking their physical location.

In my school teachers somehow manage to find out about EVERYTHING we do inside and outside of school.

Basic human rights man. Children are not fucking animals who need tracking devices on their necks not to lose them. Tracking devices, cameras and other crap in school are just not acceptable whatever the reason is.

Obviously they do.

Cameras? Not needed?
Sexual harassment suit being filed. Girl claims boy grabbed her breasts in the stairwell. They go check the video feed, they see her giving him head and then him refusing to pay her. Take that sexual harassment suit.

You want to tell me we don't need cameras in stores and other places of security because we're not animals?

This is stretching it. Glad I am in university.

I dunno. Given how some parents let their kids run fucking hog wild in stores (I literally almost trip over them because at 2 or 3-years-old, children can't distinguish the Action DVD aisle from their backyard), I'd at least stop and consider some kind of leash law.

"... And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads : And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.[666]." [Revelation 13:11-18]

Please note several important factors about this passage:

1. The second "beast" coming out of the land is following the first beast of Revelation 13:1-10, which is Antichrist. This second beast is called the False Prophet [False Religious Leader]

2. This second beast is a "Christian" religious leader. He is prophesied to be such by the identifying words, "he had two horns like a lamb". This is an obvious reference to the "Lamb that was slain", Jesus Christ. When he arises to encourage people to worship Antichrist, he will be popularly viewed as a Christian leader.

3. This False Prophet is the same demonically possessed person Antichrist is, as is demonstrated by the fact that he possesses the same occult power of Antichrist.

4. The main function of this False Religious Prophet is to convince all the peoples of the world to worship Antichrist. He creates a statute in the newly constructed Temple that speaks, probably looking just like Antichrist. Anyone who will not fall down to worship this statue will be killed.

5. The ultimate form of worship of the Antichrist is the implantation of this "mark" in either the right hand or the forehead. The punishment for not accepting this "mark" will be death, because no one who refuses to take this "mark" will be able to buy the food or other necessities of life that would enable them to continue to live.

6. Too many people think Antichrist is the one forcing people to take this "mark". The leader who forces everyone in the world to take this "mark" is the False Prophet, thereby alerting you to the fact that the primary purpose of this "mark" is to demonstrate personal loyalty to, and spiritual worship of, Antichrist. Indeed, despite the fact that people will be conditioned mightily prior to the appearance of Antichrist to all of the economic advantages of taking an implantation under the skin, once Antichrist arises, the implantation of his "mark" will be spiritual in nature.

People who take this mark will literally be demonstrating their worship of Antichrist, and they will know it.

Thus, we can better understand the reaction from Almighty God, found in Revelation 14:9-11. "And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name."

The final point you need to understand about this whole matter can be found in Daniel 12:10b, "none of the wicked shall understand".

Thus, you can easily see that this taking of the "mark" of Antichrist will be a spiritual commitment to him. This is the reason God has decreed that the False Religious Prophet will be the leader in persuading all the peoples of the world to worship Antichrist.
