Image via WikipediaThousands of Orthodox citizens of Greece hit the streets of Athens on Sunday to protest against the introduction of new identity cards.
The government, in its decision to strip all references to religion from National ID cards, has decided to formulate new cards that will contain microchips that will contain information on taxes, the history of appeals to state bodies and other personal information.
They perceive the plastic cards with microchip as a direct violation of their human rights, because the beholder of the card is not permitted to know what the card contains. That is a direct violation of human rights. Luckily this last amendment goes against the Greek constitution and therefore cannot be enforced... but nonetheless it is worrisome and is giving citizens who oppose the cards a good reason to be afraid.
Another reason citizens oppose the card is because they claim it fulfills prophecy of the Apocalypse since their code included on the cards are the numbers 666, as known these numbers are directly associated with Lucifer and Satanism. Citizens claim that this is too suspicious, since the creators of the cards could of used millions of other number sequences, why use the numbers associated with Satanism?
On their part, the clergy, that joined thousands of marchers in the Greek capital, said that the new identity carda offer too much information about citizens, and suspect that they are designed to do so, to make it easier for the state to wield control over the people.
