China using high-tech to track people
Source: www.nytimes.com
August 10, 2007 -- At least 20,000 police surveillance cameras are being installed along streets here in southern China and will soon be guided by sophisticated computer software from an American-financed company to recognize automatically the faces of police suspects and detect unusual activity.
Starting this month in a port neighborhood and then spreading across Shenzhen, a city of 12.4 million people, residency cards fitted with powerful computer chips programmed by the same company will be issued to most citizens.
Data on the chip will include not just the citizen’s name and address but also work history, educational background, religion, ethnicity, police record, medical insurance status and landlord’s phone number. Even personal reproductive history will be included, for enforcement of China’s controversial “one child” policy. Plans are being studied to add credit histories, subway travel payments and small purchases charged to the card.
Security experts describe China’s plans as the world’s largest effort to meld cutting-edge computer technology with police work to track the activities of a population and fight crime. But they say the technology can be used to violate civil rights.
Comments: The sleeping giant known as Red China awoke in the 1980s and has since gobbled up much of the world’s toy, gadget and mid-size consumer electronics industries, just to name a few. In her grandiose desire to be the world’s dominant economy, she has amassed a huge army of low paid workers. With a burgeoning population of 1.3 billion, it’s essential for her to monitor her own citizens to keep track of where they are, what they buy, their family values, political allegiance, religious affiliation, etc. It’s an ambitious task no doubt, but with the Chinese leaders known for their paranoia and determination, it will get done.
The residency cards fitted with powerful computer chips won’t cost that much when purchased in huge quantities. Getting them to every Chinese person would be a logistics nightmare perhaps, but China also answers to the same wealthy globalist elitists as do the rest of the world. These behind the scene “god like” billionaires are in turn taking their orders from Lucifer, the fallen head angel whose plan of the ages is to bring about the unholy trinity (Satan, Antichrist and False Prophet) to rule the world and keep his subjects securely chained in their sins and headed unimpeded to the Lake of Fire. Chip technology is ushering in the Mark of the Beast. Every country it seems, chips and magnetic cards are being embraced by its citizens with hardly a murmur of protest. You either accept these intrusive items or you risk being left out of the day to day business transactions and your health care would be in peril. Revelation 13:[16] And he (the False Prophet) causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: [17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast (the Antichrist), or the number of his name.

Call Rome 060606: One number, a whole city
Source: www2.comune.roma.it
August 12, 2007 -- 060606 is the telephone number to call for information on the services provided by the City of Rome.
Telephone services:
It gives information about the hours for the public, the seats and activities of the offices and services
;
It forwards incoming telephone calls to all the numbers of the Comune, Municipi and companies of the Comune di Roma Group (Ama, Atac, Acea, etc.);
It transfers incoming telephone calls to the second level telephone office to meet all the particular needs of all citizens;
It provides remote communication, whenever possible, using the available tools (fax, the internet, e-mail);
It arranges appointments with the office.
Comments: The number 6 is the number of rebellious man. Three 6s symbolize the unholy trinity of Satan, Antichrist and False Prophet who will rule this world soon and force Earth’s citizens to worship the Antichrist (a substitute for Christ, i.e. takes the place of Christ) or be beheaded.
Rome is speculated by many Bible prophecy authors and students to produce the False Prophet, i.e. specifically, the next pope after Benedict XVI. Rome sits on seven mountains and she has persecuted the saints of God since the beginning of Christianity. When the Roman Catholic Church came into existence later on, that church had true believers burned at the sake. Many a martyr died at its hands.
Is it not fitting then that Bella Roma has set up the Mark of the Beast ahead of his unveiling to the world? Get the citizens used to its 666 or its variation so they would be properly conditioned. Revelation 13:[18] Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Democrat frontrunner Hillary Clinton pledges to be 'partner' with gays
Source: Baptist Press
August 10, 2007 -- Appearing at an historic Democratic presidential forum on homosexual issues Aug. 9, leading Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton said she hopes to be a partner with the homosexual community if elected president and pledged to work on a broad range of like-minded issues upon taking office, including passage of a civil unions bill and repeal of the military's "don't ask, don't" tell policy.
In addition, and possibly for the first time in a public setting, she said she opposes state constitutional marriage amendments, which protect the natural definition of marriage and which a majority of states in recent years have adopted.
It was the first time the leading candidates from a major party appeared on one stage to discuss issues important to the homosexual community. Also appearing were Barack Obama, John Edwards, Bill Richardson, Mike Gravel and Dennis Kucinich. The two-hour forum was broadcast on the MTV-owned Logo Channel -- a homosexual-themed channel -- and sponsored by the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest homosexual activist organization. Candidates appeared one after the other and had approximately 20 minutes apiece.
"I really hope that we can be partners in trying to make our country a little bit better and a little more progressive for all of us," Clinton told the audience, adding that her husband's administration "didn’t get as much done as I would have liked" on homosexual issues.
Comments: It’s not surprising the liberal Democrats support gay rights and bash conservative Christians at the same time. What puzzles me is: If gays make up only 10% of the population while “Christians” supposedly make up 1/3 of the 300 million Americans, why the U.S. Democrat presidential candidate hopefuls don’t channel their energies more to secure the “Christian” votes? The math simply doesn’t add up here. Could it be that the gay population is a lot more than 10%, more like 30% and growing exponentially? There is still a lot of “closet” lesbian and homosexuals out there. I’ve read that lesbianism is rife among teenage girls. With the major TV networks increasing the number of gay minded shows, the alternative lifestyle is catching on with quite a lot of people. There’s an age old question: Is Hollywood simply mirroring modern lifestyles or are lifestyles determining what Hollywood producing?
Ms. Clinton is a person who doesn’t wear her faith (a Methodist like President Bush) on her sleeve. “It’s none of your business”, she insisted. Her not seeking the Christian votes is a personal decision no doubt influenced by the Democrats’ historic bashing of conservative Christianity. Now, the gay and lesbian votes are another matter. Genesis 13:[13] But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly. Matthew 10:[15] Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

Theological college told by Oxford University to teach liberal Christianity or else!
Source: education.guardian.co.uk
August 12, 2007 -- One of the Church of England's most distinguished theological training colleges has been placed on notice that it must improve its academic standards and not succumb to narrow conservative evangelicalism if it is to remain part of Oxford University. Wycliffe Hall, at the centre of a dispute between some staff and its hardline evangelical principal, has been told by the university that it must maintain the values of a liberal education and will be monitored to ensure it does. Complaints of homophobia and misogyny have been levelled at Wycliffe's leadership.
An internal report, drawn up by senior Oxford academics and accepted by the university's governing council, will warn the 130-year-old college of concern about the narrowness of its theological teaching and doubts about whether it is offering students full intellectual development.
Comments: People and corporations don’t like ultimatums and the leadership at Wycliffe Hall must decide whether to toe the line of liberalism or be booted out of prestigious Oxford University. There’s intense pressure to conform to liberal mainline Protestantism which has produced dead churches devoid of all spiritual power. Let’s hope the conservative God honouring leaders don’t cave in on this threat. It’s best to obey God rather than man just like the Apostle Paul. If Wycliffe Hall does acquiesce, the dissident Bible believing persons ought to leave the institution in protest and kick the dust behind them. This is an outrage!
The spirit of the day is liberal secular and religious humanism. Oxford University is a godless institutional replete with atheistic professors bent on promoting Darwinism, free thinking and extolling the virtues of mankind. Anybody who dares to swim against the current of the populists will garner the scorn, admonition and intimidation of the Devil’s crowd. Acts 5:[29] Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men. 1 Peter 3:[14] But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled.

U.S. and the World Bank bankrolling Iranian projects
Source: http://www.washingtonpost.com
August 10, 2007 -- Both the U.N. Security Council and the International Atomic Energy Agency have found Iran in breach of its obligations under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. The IAEA reports that Iran ignored the Security Council's February deadline to stop enriching uranium and has even expanded its nuclear program.
As Iran's Atomic Energy Organization moves toward its announced goal of operating 50,000 uranium enrichment centrifuges in Natanz, the World Bank is funding nine government projects in Iran totalling $1.35 billion -- one of which operates in Isfahan, where Iran's nuclear program is headquartered.
While the World Bank is part of the U.N. family, the bank's board is disconnected from the policies of key U.N. agencies -- especially the Security Council and the IAEA. The United States remains the top investor in the World Bank, contributing $950 million in 2006 and $940 million this year.
Comments: Are you shocked and incensed that American taxpayers’ money is in a round about assisting Iran’s development of the nuke? Iran is a very wealthy country buoyed by billions of petroleum euro profits annually yet the World Bank is throwing cash Iran’s way? How can that possibly be? In the business world, to get a loan, you need to convince the loan officer that you have the collateral to back it up if you should default on the repayment, i.e. you have to prove that you’re rich enough not to need a loan. Well, in politics, many things don’t make any economic sense either. President Bush continually railed against Iran’s president for his warmongering, yet Mr. Bush won’t step in to chastise the World Bank CEO that he hand picked. It’s hypocrisy for sure and much of the American citizenship isn’t informed. If it were, there would be much uproar and backlash.
This article just goes to show you that it’s not President Bush who runs this world. It’s the secret light avoiding super wealthy Satan worshipping elitists who call the shots and fund friends and foes alike in order to affect history. Their self-deluded image of themselves as little gods gives them the right to order the affairs of this world as they see fit. Conspiracy and pure coincidences? I say not. Job 2:[2] And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.
