Here's the funny part....An EAN barcode starts, pauses and stops using two thin lines that are longer than the rest of the code.

Those two thin lines are decoded as the number six in the actual breakdown of the code....See below and match the sixes in the code with the three sets of longer thin lines at the beginning, middle and end of the barcode:

The mark will follow world-wide war, pestilence, famine and other natural disasters. The coming economic collapses and reorganizing of world powers will make the adoption of the beast system of cashless society/mandatory nanotech/microchips easier to implement, but make no mistake all the technology to do this is here already. The important thing to remember will be that evil will fully come out of the closet to where the choice is pretty cut and dry, we’re already seeing this today. There will be an open persecution and execution of Christians, Jesus says “lawlessness will abound” and “the love of many will grow cold.” We’re already seeing lawlessness abound. Folks, this has all be foretold, time to choose a side.

I'm sure you experienced some...thing but what it is can't be a proven supernatural experience.  More than likely it's a peer pressure initiated emotional response triggered by the guilt that peer group assigned to you and the "free" forgiveness they offer for the thing they made you feel guilty about.  It's a psyche job, full stop. Just because millions of people believe it to be something else does not make that experience supernatural.  It's easily explained with logic.

I left alone, my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind
What did I see? Can I believe that what I saw
That night was real and not just fantasy?
Just what I saw, in my old dreams, were they
Reflections of my warped mind staring back at me?
Cause in my dreams, it's always there
The evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair

11. Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon. 12. It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed. 13. It performs great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in front of people, 14. and by the signs that it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth, telling them to make an image for the beast that was wounded by the sword and yet lived. 15. And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. 16. Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, 17. so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. 18. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.

Define supernatural?

I don’t have peer pressure. I didn’t grow up religious. I use to be an atheist, I use to be subbed to all the stupid atheist YouTube channels that are as lost as Mega preachers like Creflo Dollar. Then I decided to be honest with myself and admit I was agnostic, because at that point I knew I didn’t know. Things change. It’s amazing what can happen when a person humbles themselves.

I quote the Tanakh because it has a lot of truth in it, and a lot of very valuable lessons if people would attempt to read it without preconceived notions of what it’s suppose to be.


It seems you're viewing what I’m saying through the lens that has been colored by the words and deeds of other people that aren’t myself. Staying inside that mindset prevents people from experiencing the greater forces around them, but also from having a better understanding of other people’s perspectives.


The last thing I’ll say is, if millions of people have had experiences similar to what I’ve had, I haven’t see them openly talking about it, but it may just be lost in the noise. Witnessing “bleeding” statues or other “miracles” is not what I’m talking about.


Here are some theoretical physicists discussing a basic foundation for this concept from a purely rational scientific perspective.

The Invisible Reality: The Wonderful Weirdness of the Quantum World



“January 24, 1936

Dear Phyllis,

I will attempt to reply to your question as simply as I can. Here is my answer:

Scientists believe that every occurrence, including the affairs of human beings, is due to the laws of nature. Therefore a scientist cannot be inclined to believe that the course of events can be influenced by prayer, that is, by a supernaturally manifested wish.

However, we must concede that our actual knowledge of these forces is imperfect, so that in the end the belief in the existence of a final, ultimate spirit rests on a kind of faith. Such belief remains widespread even with the current achievements in science.

But also, everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that some spirit is manifest in the laws of the universe, one that is vastly superior to that of man. In this way the pursuit of science leads to a

religious feeling of a special sort, which is surely quite different from the religiosity of someone more naive.

With cordial greetings,

your A. Einstein“

This is the problem with human perception, and the limits of language. I could use a reference to the Tower of Babel here, but that would only sever any basis which to work from.

It’s difficult to build this bridge of a shared consensus without a foundation to work from. This way of thinking is fairly new (or maybe it’s very old?), and something that most people never learn or even think about.


Oddly enough, I just refound this channel. In his videos on this channel, and his newer channel of the same name he touches on some of these concepts. Yes, he’s autistic, and has been diagnosed with depression & schizophrenia, but that doesn’t disprove what he discusses.

Imagine if you had this level of understanding of the world at 13, but were surrounded by people that had no shared perception. Imagine how alone and sad you would be for the world looking at all it’s problems you had answers for, but no one would listen.


4th Dimension Explained By A High-School Student


simplifying einstein's relativity



ETA: This gift of seeing the world, and understanding how things work on a fundamental level, without any further study, comes from the unseen force that gives life to all things in the universe. Call it god, or whatever you want to. I prefer to call it Creation, because it seems the most accurate.

Creation was necessary to bring the universe into being. This same force is what occurs when life is created, at one moment there is a collection of particles formed into cells that make up the embryo of an organism without greater signs of life, and then the next moment it is alive. Before this moment, the technology used to measure these signs of life says life is non-existent in this organism, and the next moment it detects life.

The reverse occurs when an organism dies. Where does that life force go? The laws of physics dictate that energy can only be transferred, not *created or destroyed.

*that current science knows of.

Where does this mysterious life force come from? As far as I know current science can’t measure it, and has no idea where it originates, but it does come from somewhere.

Someone might say, “Sure, but science just doesn’t have a way to measure it yet, once they do, then we’ll know.” History has proven that the more humans learn, the more they find they have no idea what’s going on. Some day we might know, but if or when that does happen, that is highly unlikely to disprove the existence of what most people call god. The only things that appear infinite are the hubris of humanity, and the nature of the universe.

Some people are born with it, others discover it along their way, but it comes from the source of all life. It’s where creative drive originates when a painter creates a masterpiece of art, or when a composer writes a moving piece of music, or when two people join to make new life.

If a person wants to wade into the deep end, they could look at the various findings in the field of quantum theory, and find that perception is what molds reality.

Whether as a basic subjective view of what is accepted by the public at large being their reality that is discussed in books like 1984, or the more literal “quantum weirdness” of our perceptions actually molding what we believe to be reality.

There are a couple prophesies regarding the return of the Jews to Israel and Jerusalem once again being the capital. the Bible specifically states that the generation that sees the return of the Jews will not pass away before Christ's return. The Jews returned in 1948, God said a man's life span is 100 years, you do the math.

Not according to the Bible:
Revelation 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

What we want is a man of sufficient stature to hold the allegiance of all
people, and to lift us out of the economic morass into which we are sinking.

Send us such a man, and be he god or devil, we will receive him."

Then COVID came along and the right formed their Death Panels to decide what businesses and activities were so important that it was OK for people to die because of them.

People die from literally all businesses and all activities. People die on their way to work or doing some activity every single day.

Being free to take a risk to partake in business and activities isn't a death panel. Everyone has the right to choose to stay home.

The elites that rule the world literally worship Satan.  Hillary staffers casually talked about sacrificing chickens to Moloch. Spirit cooking. They're Satanic. I haven't been to church in more than 20 years and I haven't ever really read the bible, but after seeing all the shit go down, anyone not in a Satanic Panic is a fucking idiot, IMHO.

I've been on the Right my whole life. I love my freedom, and do not want more government control.

But reading this shit, and all the of the STUPID fucking posts in this thread, make it very clear why the Right lost, and will continue to lose.

Religion is dying. Fewer and fewer people are falling for the bullshit, and those people who are "non-believers" are pushed from the Right to the Left, and that number is only getting bigger.

Another poster already said as much, but the Christian conservative Boomers gotta fuckin go. You're holding us back.

Personally, the only thing that makes sense to me is this...

The "Mark" will be a microchip of sorts (like you've never heard that before, ha)
The Bible says once you take the mark, you cannot go back. Thats it. Done. Finito.
Why?

Because........ The mark will be DNA altering. Your  DNA WILL BE CHANGED.
Of course this will come with a multitude of health benefits of course.
No more cancer? Sign me up
No more Alzheimers? Sign me up
No more Diabetes? Sign me up...
The list is endless.

If we're close, then MIT/Gates's quantum dot tattoos in future vaccines might be it, because they'll be mass-produced and delivered via means that are already ubiquitous.  I'd give it a few years tops before those are routinely added to vaccines.

Microsoft's implantable cryptocurrency chip is even creepier, but it seems like it would require explicit surgery to insert, which makes it logistically unlikely to occur anytime soon.

Also, am I in before poo-flinging monkeys?

But mark of the beast will be accepted knowingly and voluntarily. So it being hidden in a vaccine doesn’t make sense.

Are you dyslexic? Because I think you have your right and left confused. Pretty sure it was leftist governors that decided people in nursing homes were so worthless that it would be fine to stick sick people in with those most vulnerable and cause the death of thousands of them.

I saw a fake news network story about a protestor who was arrested at the capitol saying he posted on social media about "far right conspiracy theories about implanted computer chips in order to partake in commerce"

2nd Amendment - infringed
Freedom of speech - infringed infringed if not lefty
Peaceably assemble - infringed if not lefty
Protest the .gov - infringed if not lefty
Freedom of press - infringed if not lefty

The last category that hasn't seen major infringement is freedom of religion. Jan 6s aftermath showed me the only acceptable god in the future will be that of the leftist government god.

Edit: that said, every generation has thought they live in the end times. It could be in 10, 100, or 1000 years....we have no idea.

You really haven't seen any infringement on religion? In this past year, church attendance was shut down all over the country. Priests and ministers were fined and arrested for holding mass with "Too many" parishoners present.

I wouldn't read into this one too much.  In Matt 24:34, Mark 13:30, and Luke 21:32, Jesus says "this" generation shall not pass away until all the things he mentioned were fulfilled.  That could refer to the generation present to see the start of those end-time events, but "genea" is tricky and could potentially be as broad as the race of Jews in general.  In its broadest sense, we may not be able to infer anything from it except that Jesus is saying that all of this stuff will happen before the end of the world.

Haha, I'll amend my statement: Slaughtering all Christians would therefore be a necessary condition, but still insufficient, to accomplish what bikedamon wants.
