A little paranoid? .....Maybe
Lately, most of my conversations, at least with my parents, have been about the way people are spied on today. We were talking the other day about RBF (I think those are the initials) chips. They're really small chips that can be placed in about anything (clothes, cars, boxes, food, etc.) and not really be detected. These chips are sometimes used for stocking in stores...they get the box, don't have to open them, just scan them and they tell you what they are basically. Well, there are also readers for these chips...so whenever a chip passes by a reader, it'll tell you/whomever whereever the person is who bought this was...and I mean, pretty much they're gonna know if ya bought it or not. If not, they can locate ya and find out who it is. Alright, there's also a chip you can have implanted into your hand and instead of having to write a check or something, you scan your hand and whatever the amount... it's deducted from your checking account. These chips also have tracking type devices in them. Now, as I told my friend, I really can see the advantages of this. I mean, no more caring cash, credit/debit cards, checks, just yourself. No way someone can steal that unless they kill ya or cut your hand off.
HOWEVER, lol, I think it's to friggin' creepy and I'm sorry, I hate my cell phone cause I basically view it as a frickin' trackin' device. Fortunately, it's one you CAN turn off and CAN leave behind. And talk about not having control of your life and ... *gets the heebie jeebies* it's just flippin' crazy and scary. As Shorty said, most Christians probably would not do this because there is mention of something like this in Revelations. However, I hope most people wouldn't do this.

Thus this leads me to why people should read books like: "Alas, Babylon" by Pat Frank, "1984" by George Orwell, "A Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley, "Farenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury, "Battlefield Earth" (also a movie) and/or watch movies like the 3 Terminator movies. Well, 1984, A Brave New World, Farenheit 451 are all movies too.

Be aware that you can't whole-heartedly trust government. That's why those books are so wonderful. And as I type this, I'm probably like being wrote down on some government list and they now will be keeping an eye on me. (No, lol, I'm not a paranoid schizophrenic...)

Gonna watch Finding Nemo now, since I've talked about it for the last week practically. Isn't it ironic...I talk about stuff like that, then I go to watch Finding Nemo... *laughs at self*
