These are interesting ideas because they are precursors to the transhumanism culture that might soon appear (20 years). Why are you all so sure it'll have to do with that type of modification (defeat death?), though, as opposed to economic? It is certainly possible, but No. 6 and loremipsum seem quite sure.

I've posted this before but:

When I lived in Vegas, the local Smith's (and I think Vons too) had a little peg off the side of the credit card machine. I asked what it was for, and the woman said that some soldiers had a chip implanted in the back of their right hand that allowed them to pay by scanning it. I haven't been back in years so I don't know if they're still there or if it was a test program.

Whether there's some sort of implant or paperless currency (I already use a credit card for most purchases), I think the Mark is referring to what ancient Rome had and we have today - a currency that has an image or symbol of the spirit of antichrist. Rome had the image of Caesar, most modern currencies have pagan symbols or deities. Even US currency says "IN GOD WE TRUST" but which "god"? It could be referring to anything and the rest of the imagery is distinctly non-christian.

Ultimately, whether it's a cryptocurrency or coinage accessed by either a credit card or implant, it can all be shut off right now with a few keystrokes.

Kid Twist, the transhumanist Theory might explain why those who take the Mark will forfeit salvation. There are not many transgressions beyond the merci of the Almighty but this is one of them.

It might be because the redemptive plan that we can read about from Genesis to Revelation is for the sons of man because it was ratified by the blood of the Son of Man. The Mark of the Beast might alter one’s humanity. Or the Mark could place people into some sort of Borg collective thus killing off the free will required to seek salvation.

One day you'll be out for your morning jog.

As you trot across a road—empty in both directions—whose traffic light is on the verge of turning red, an IoT sensor will ping the cameras above to check your face against the master database in Utah. Upon confirming your identity, the CRISPR-enabled nanochip in your arm proceeds to edit a gene that up-regulates your estrogen production.

Bad news, you didn't make the light. You've got too much aggression-inducing testosterone and it poses a threat to public safety.

Your nipples suddenly sore and itching, and wistful thoughts of your ex-girlfriend—who got a BBC train ran on her and posted it on Instagram while you were still dating—running through your head, you make your way to the pharmacy to buy some testosterone to offset the penalty.

"At least SOME things are still legal", you muse in consolation.,

You're dismayed to find—though you suppress your dismay with all your might—that your AliPay account has been auto-debited for the gender-binary expletives you muttered under your breath upon being CRISPR'd for your pedestrian malfeasance.

Keeping the straightest poker face you can muster, you head back home.

You take your handgun from the drawer, and wrap your mouth around it. You pull the trigger but no relief from the nightmare that is your life arrives.

The AI which followed your movements throughout the day via 5g GPS; the sensors implanted in your vertebrae which detected your particularly morose posture; and the facial expressions captured by the omnipresent cameras, rightly predicted yet another imminent suicide attempt.

(The data set on the behaviors preceding unauthorized life terminations had grown increasingly large, until such time that the AI learned the signs sufficiently to preempt them).

I mean....if you're literally saying that paper cash notes are the mark, then we've all already accepted it anyway. I'd prefer to think that's not the case.

New gene editing technology could correct 89% of genetic defects
By Jessie Yeung, CNN
Updated 4:36 AM EDT, Tue October 22, 2019


(CNN) Scientists have developed a new gene-editing technology that could potentially correct up to 89% of genetic defects, including those that cause diseases like sickle cell anemia.

The new technique is called "prime editing," and was developed by researchers from the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, who published their findings Monday in the journal Nature.

Prime editing builds on powerful CRISPR gene editing, but is more precise and versatile -- it "directly writes new genetic information into a specified DNA site," according to the paper.

Ad
In the traditional CRISPR-Cas9 approach, Cas9, a type of modified protein, acts like a pair of scissors that can snip parts of DNA strands. It can target genes in a specific location -- for instance, to disrupt a mutation.

About two-thirds of known human genetic variants associated with diseases are single point gene mutations, so gene editing has the potential to correct or reproduce such mutations.

Prime editing combines the CRISPR-Cas9 method with a different protein that can generate new DNA. The tool nicks the DNA strand, then transfers an edited sequence to the target DNA -- allowing researchers to smoothly insert and delete parts of human cells.

The technique allows researchers to search and replace entire sections of DNA strands, all without disruptive breaks or donor DNA. With this method, researchers say they hope to accurately and efficiently correct up to 89% of known disease-causing genetic variations.

"With prime editing, we can now directly correct the sickle-cell anemia mutation back to the normal sequence and remove the four extra DNA bases that cause Tay Sachs disease, without cutting DNA entirely or needing DNA templates," said David Liu, one of the authors of the study, in a Broad Institute press release.

"The versatility of prime editing quickly became apparent as we developed this technology," said Andrew Anzalone, another author in the study, in the press release. "The fact that we could directly copy new genetic information into a target site was a revelation. We were really excited."

The team of researchers will now continue working to hone the technique, trying to maximize its efficiency in various cell types and exploring any potential effects on the cells. They will also continue testing on different models of diseases to ultimately "provide a potential path for human therapeutic applications," according to the press release.

Gene editing is still a relatively young and rapidly expanding field of study -- CRISPR-Cas9 is based on a decade-old discovery, but was only used on humans for the first time in 2016. Then in 2017, the Broad Institute developed a new technique called base editing, which can make changes to a targeted DNA site without cutting the DNA.

Proposal for global moratorium on editing of inherited DNA is met with criticism

Researchers at the Broad Institute and elsewhere hope CRISPR could one day target a wide range of "bad" genes -- potentially helping humans avoid obesity, Alzheimer's disease, genetic forms of deafness, and more.

However, as the technology has advanced, doctors, scientists, and bioethicists have also raised ethical questions. Some fear it could open the door to human embryos being manipulated for nontherapeutic reasons, or that it could create unintended mutations and new diseases.

Just earlier this year in March, a group of researchers, including the scientist who pioneered and patented CRISPR technology, called for a global moratorium on human germline editing -- changes made to inherited DNA that can be passed on to the next generation.

They listed ethical concerns, and pointed to Chinese scientist He Jiankui, who claimed to have made gene edits when creating two AIDS-resistant babies last year. He's work, which could have unforeseen consequences, has been internationally condemned and called "abominable in nature" by Chinese authorities.

We had a guest preacher at our Baptist Church who warned that the mark of the beast was going to be an implanted micro chip. That was during the early 80's when I was a young boy and I was so shocked to hear his warning that it stuck with me all of these years. He warned that you wouldn't be able to engage in commerce if you didn't have the mark and this would occur during the Tribulation.

As I've said before, I have people on my social media sites that would line up around the block to get the mark of the beast although they are so lost that they wouldn't know what it is and if many of them did, they still wouldn't care.

Satan's soldiers are desperately awaiting the coming of the anti-Christ. These are people as radical as antifa and so sick that they would force a 7 year old boy to become a trans-gender as we're seeing now. They are in government and faculty lounges throughout our society and they must be stopped. The more people that good men can reach with the truth about how sinister these people are, the better.

I don't believe this is the mark but find it a little odd. I see a lot of guys at my work consuming energy drinks. These energy drink cans all have suspiciously evil connotations displayed. Monster energy has claw marks that look like 666 in Hebrew script. Monster also being another name for beast. Red bull is pretty obvious. I saw another can with 'Forbidden fruit' labelled on it. Another with an upside down cross described as having 'wicked' flavour.

Needless to say I avoid energy drinks like poison now.

This is sick, but merely what they are announcing to the public.

God only knows what they really have developed behind the scenes. I'm sure it goes way beyond gene editing.

They give you the illusion of energy while actually depleting your body off it, getting you addicted to sugar and wrecking your endorphin receptors.

100 million households have Prime right now (https://www.vox.com/2018/4/19/17256410/a...ff-bezos). This is over 50% of households. There would be backlash if Prime was required to buy/sell today, but in 20 years?

There’s no need to exaggerate. The article you quoted says 100million worldwide prime households ”

If there are about 4 or 5 billion households 100m will would be less than 5%, not 50%. But I get your point and think amazon should be broken up into smaller companies, they and google essentially have a monopoly

Personally I love Amazon and have spent in excess of 50 grand on it on various products throughout the years. The ease of use, the excellent customer service etc. People are free to shop elsewhere if they don't like Amazon.

I also think the argument of "I don't want to support globohomos by giving them my money" is pretty dumb. Everything you buy practically supports the globohomos. The elites who control the big conglomerates own probably 95% of the products you purchase on a monthly basis. Not only that, but any business you pay will later have to pay taxes, which funds ZOG.

So buy whatever you want. If you want to fight the elites there are better more effective ways to do so.

I agree on Google though. They have to be broken up into pieces. They control the internet and therefore the narrative. Facebook, Twitter and print media should also be regulated.

Storing medical information below the skin’s surface

Every year, a lack of vaccination leads to about 1.5 million preventable deaths, primarily in developing nations. One factor that makes vaccination campaigns in those nations more difficult is that there is little infrastructure for storing medical records, so there’s often no easy way to determine who needs a particular vaccine.

MIT researchers have now developed a novel way to record a patient’s vaccination history: storing the data in a pattern of dye, invisible to the naked eye, that is delivered under the skin at the same time as the vaccine.

“In areas where paper vaccination cards are often lost or do not exist at all, and electronic databases are unheard of, this technology could enable the rapid and anonymous detection of patient vaccination history to ensure that every child is vaccinated,” says Kevin McHugh, a former MIT postdoc who is now an assistant professor of bioengineering at Rice University.

The researchers showed that their new dye, which consists of nanocrystals called quantum dots, can remain for at least five years under the skin, where it emits near-infrared light that can be detected by a specially equipped smartphone.

McHugh and former visiting scientist Lihong Jing are the lead authors of the study, which appears today in Science Translational Medicine. Ana Jaklenec, a research scientist at MIT’s Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research, and Robert Langer, the David H. Koch Institute Professor at MIT, are the senior authors of the paper.

An invisible record

Several years ago, the MIT team set out to devise a method for recording vaccination information in a way that doesn’t require a centralized database or other infrastructure. Many vaccines, such as the vaccine for measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR), require multiple doses spaced out at certain intervals; without accurate records, children may not receive all of the necessary doses.

“In order to be protected against most pathogens, one needs multiple vaccinations,” Jaklenec says. “In some areas in the developing world, it can be very challenging to do this, as there is a lack of data about who has been vaccinated and whether they need additional shots or not.”

To create an “on-patient,” decentralized medical record, the researchers developed a new type of copper-based quantum dots, which emit light in the near-infrared spectrum. The dots are only about 4 nanometers in diameter, but they are encapsulated in biocompatible microparticles that form spheres about 20 microns in diameter. This encapsulation allows the dye to remain in place, under the skin, after being injected.

The researchers designed their dye to be delivered by a microneedle patch rather than a traditional syringe and needle. Such patches are now being developed to deliver vaccines for measles, rubella, and other diseases, and the researchers showed that their dye could be easily incorporated into these patches.

The microneedles used in this study are made from a mixture of dissolvable sugar and a polymer called PVA, as well as the quantum-dot dye and the vaccine. When the patch is applied to the skin, the microneedles, which are 1.5 millimeters long, partially dissolve, releasing their payload within about two minutes.

By selectively loading microparticles into microneedles, the patches deliver a pattern in the skin that is invisible to the naked eye but can be scanned with a smartphone that has the infrared filter removed. The patch can be customized to imprint different patterns that correspond to the type of vaccine delivered.

“It’s possible someday that this ‘invisible’ approach could create new possibilities for data storage, biosensing, and vaccine applications that could improve how medical care is provided, particularly in the developing world,” Langer says.

Effective immunization

Tests using human cadaver skin showed that the quantum-dot patterns could be detected by smartphone cameras after up to five years of simulated sun exposure.

The researchers also tested this vaccination strategy in rats, using microneedle patches that delivered the quantum dots along with a polio vaccine. They found that those rats generated an immune response similar to the response of rats that received a traditional injected polio vaccine.

“This study confirmed that incorporating the vaccine with the dye in the microneedle patches did not affect the efficacy of the vaccine or our ability to detect the dye,” Jaklenec says.

The researchers now plan to survey health care workers in developing nations in Africa to get input on the best way to implement this type of vaccination record keeping. They are also working on expanding the amount of data that can be encoded in a single pattern, allowing them to include information such as the date of vaccine administration and the lot number of the vaccine batch.

The researchers believe the quantum dots are safe to use in this way because they are encapsulated in a biocompatible polymer, but they plan to do further safety studies before testing them in patients.

“Storage, access, and control of medical records is an important topic with many possible approaches,” says Mark Prausnitz, chair of chemical and biomolecular engineering at Georgia Tech, who was not involved in the research. “This study presents a novel approach where the medical record is stored and controlled by the patient within the patient’s skin in a minimally invasive and elegant way.”

The research was funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Koch Institute Support (core) Grant from the National Cancer Institute. Other authors of the paper include Sean Severt, Mache Cruz, Morteza Sarmadi, Hapuarachchige Surangi Jayawardena, Collin Perkinson, Fridrik Larusson, Sviatlana Rose, Stephanie Tomasic, Tyler Graf, Stephany Tzeng, James Sugarman, Daniel Vlasic, Matthew Peters, Nels Peterson, Lowell Wood, Wen Tang, Jihyeon Yeom, Joe Collins, Philip Welkhoff, Ari Karchin, Megan Tse, Mingyuan Gao, and Moungi Bawendi.

A metal band called Job For a Cowboy had a song/album about this




From Wikipedia:
Genesis is the debut studio album by American death metal band Job for a Cowboy. Released on May 15, 2007 through Metal Blade Records, it is their first concept album and is based on possible consequences of the VeriChip, along with the Book of Revelation and apocalyptic theories... the songs clearly tell a story of technology, religion and corrupt government, and how they combine to lead to the end of civilization."

I understand that the music itself and album art might be pretty off-putting to some here...but in what other genre of music could you have a whole concept album about the Mark of the Beast/chip + Revelations/apocalyptic? I thought it was pretty sick. The album is still one of my favorites and holds up well today. The album opens with the birth of the Antichrist as earth and humanity fall into disarray. The lyrics are turning out to be pretty prophetic for something that came out in 2007:

An incision leads to the future of the new world
A mark buried deep under the skin and flesh will define and distinguish man
Signatures implanted on the hands and forehead

Re-occurence of modern times and scriptures
Testament to holy doctrines written in vital blood

In the extent, all will hold something very similar and accordingly
All will bear his name with the distinct and original number of his signature
In a new world with suppressing technology
Lacerations lead to codes embedded in blood streams beneath the flesh
Currencies fuse together to form a solitary and overruling capital

Money evolves into cryptic letters and numbers that flow through the net
A conflagration set to diminish papered riches
Depleting its masterdom
No longer capable of enslaving the likes of human kind
From only presenting itself as a form of an object

---

No longer capable of enslaving the likes of human kind
From only presenting itself as a form of an object
Fragments of ash flow through the atmosphere's currents
onlookers breathe and inhale what they once worshipped
The demon's solution, a new world order
