QOTD: “The Bible says that they cannot buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast,"--Robertson

Pat Robertson sure has been on a roll lately. As he gets older, he keeps the crazy coming at full speed ahead.

Raw Story:

Televangelist Pat Robertson warned on Thursday that the government was pushing technologies that would force every financial transaction to be controlled “by computer,” and it could be the “Mark of the Beast” described in the Bible’s book of Revelation.

“The Bible says that they cannot buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast,” Robertson noted in a segment about new financial technologies. “And people said, ‘Oh, well, that's just fanciful Hebrew rhetoric that doesn’t apply to anybody real.’ Who would have thought that we could live in an age that that could literally come to pass?”

“There will be a time when humanity will be forced to take a mark,” she said. “And that mark will be on the right hand or the forehead. It is the number 666.”

But Robertson worried that it was not just RFID that was a sign of the End Times, it was all electronic financial transactions.

“We don’t want to scare people,” he insisted. “The times going to come, we’re not going to have any cash. We don’t need cash.”

Pat can turn any Bible verse into a zombie apocalypse, too.

“I hate to tell you, it’s coming. Because it is a control thing. And Satan wants to control the lives of all the world. Can’t buy, can’t sell without the Mark of the Beast.”
