The worst reason to get the vaccine is so that you'll be allowed to do things you want to do. Don't get me wrong. If some folks choose to take the vaccine out of concern for their health, or because they want to be sure they're safe around elderly relatives, I get it. I don't agree with it, because I think the science is shoddy, but I understand that mindset.

What I don't understand is people who willingly say "I won't let a stupid shot prevent me from doing the things I love, even though I know I'm being coerced." At that point, you've stated directly what you can be bought for. You've decided that principle doesn't matter to a certain degree, and that someone else (someone evil, no less) can tell you precisely what to put in your own body.

Had this chat with a Christian friend of mine, and it has me rethinking what I used to believe about the Mark of the Beast. I used to think it was about fearing death more than God, or the worship of the antichrist. Now I'm starting to think it's the worship of self and of pleasure. This vaccine situation might just be the precursor to everything that is to come.
