I agree whole heartedly with this line of thought about the chip as when you do a word study of the BIBLE text about this mark it actually translates as being in the hand or head and NOT on the hand which would tend to be more like a tattoo or something. this mark cannot be forced on some one they must willingly take the marcc and worship the beast by choice. once taken the mark-marcc and the oath of worship will change the mindset of the person. no one who takes the mark-marcc will never even think of trying to remove it. not a workable plan there kurisu sorry, you may be able to inlist the promise of a trusted friend to capture you and hack off your hand .but theres no way of knowing if that will work as a backup plan. there are some scriptures referring to or sugesting that if your right hand offends you cut it off, for it is better to enter the kingdome marred than to be damned. not to sure it was referring to the mark-marcc of the beast thow.
