I'm blown away that Enyart is advocating this. I just can't believe it - a Christian pastor is just fine with this incremental step towards our future cashless society. The key word, Mr. Enyart, is incrementalism. This particular biometric identifier is simply a steppingstone, that can't be denied!
Concerning Nathaniel: He was right on. Bob brought up social security numbers, credit cards, etc. as red herrings. True, when credts cards etc. were introduced many Christians said it was the mark of the beast and yes, they shouldn't of done that because they lost overall credibility. But that wasn't the point. Sorry Bob. Nathaniel even called you on it. Again, the point is that credit cards, SS cards, etc. WERE steppingstones to a one day cashless society just as thumb scanning currently is. That was really shameful how Enyart evaded the question and piously remarked, "Ya know, when callers call in to BEL they need to have courage to answer the questions...". You're a hypocrite, Bob.
Concerning national ID cards: Wow, where to start. Not surprisingly Bob supports this too. Unfortunately, Bob, free societies do not have national ID cards. National ID cards are only hallmarks of totalitarian societies like Nazi Germany and Communist Russia. "Your papers PLEASE!" And Bob took the moral high road again with this caller by saying he "chickened out" and used "red herrings". Again, shameful Bob. Objective listeners can easily see this and that you used red herrings all over this show.
I'll end my tirade there. But I'll conclude by saying that you really need to study these issues more Bob (and how they tie in to the New World Order) and not be so trusting of your government. Gee, what a radical concept! The Founding Fathers warned us over and over again in their writings to not trust government and to always watch it and keep it from becoming out of control and centralized. But by your definition, I guess you would call them "paranoid" too...
