"SmartMetric smartcard"
John and Doves,
This is a continuation of the smart card post , sent in earlier

On May 15th, President Bush asked for biometric ID verification
for all legal foreign workers.
This of course is another way of saying that ALL workers will need ID verification
in order to weed out those who do not qualify.
On May 17th, SmartMetric announced their smartcard that solves all ID "solutions".
Article:
"SmartMetric issues smart card with onboard fingerprint scanner
"
"We believe our technology to be the ultimate solution for safe,
assured financial authorizations"
"Powerful, yet powerfully simple, the card eliminates the need for manual
data entry in all kinds of Web-based financial transactions. Yet its security
cannot be circumvented by any conventional means. The user simply slides
the card through a USB card reader, then touches a fingerprint scanner embedded
into the card's surface. The card automatically matches the impression with
the digital fingerprint signature stored on the card. Once the identity
of the user is established, payment is authorized."
" In recent months, Wall Street-based SmartMetric
has gained attention for its technology from financial institutions, corporations,
even the federal government. The company's breakthrough wallet-sized device
is similar in size and thickness to a conventional credit card; on the card,
however, is a microchip/sensor unit capable of reading
any fingerprint, even ones that are dirty or calloused."
"The SmartMetric card not only eliminates the need to enter
PINs, account numbers or other personal information, but also it creates
new options for banks and savings and loans. "The SmartMetric
card can turn PCs into ATMs," he states. "With
authorization virtually assured, funds can be safely transferred over the
Internet onto debit cards -- in effect an
'electronic purse.' This kind of use has been proven
for years in Europe, where 'chip cards' are a common way
of carrying electronic money."

Then Mayor Bloomberg stated that we should
have a centralized database with everyone's ID information available online.
Then came the news of the VA identification data being "misplaced".
This caused sufficient enough scare for SmartMetric to announce that they
had a better solution ---OFFLINE authentication.

The SmartMetric card can verify a person's identity
without having to go Online. It is considered "tamperproof". How do they
do this ? Because all the verification factors are contained within
the card itself.
The SmartMetric smart card has a SENSOR placed within the card. A person
places his
finger ( for a print ) upon the sensor which then stores that digital
fingerprint in the microcomputer chip, which is also embedded within
the same smart card. From that point on, only the
biometric-fingerprint matching the digital fingerprint stored on the microprocessor
will validate who that card holder truly is.
So the SmartMetric smartcard bypasses online verification, and is considered
"tamperproof", or unhackable.
It is rather amazing that as the call went forth, the solution was right
there. Also amazing is the fact that as the VA data problem arose, the solution
too was right there. Amazing how everyone is on the same page.
SmartMetric claims that they are ready right now for "large-scale deployment
" of this smartcard.
So, it remains for another call to go forth and soon we will all have our
smart cards ready for verification.
While technologically these smartcards may be considered "smart"
.... in the end, they are not WISE cards.
For the Bible tells us that he who has WISDOM counts ( computes
) the number of the beast and his number is 666. Only the wise will know
that .... whether it be with a subdermal chip in the right hand (
or forehead) , or whether it be with a smartcard :
no one can TRANSACT 666 finances with either the Mark ( injected 666
chip ) , nor the image, nor the name , nor the number of the beast.
For to TRANSACT in accordance with the beast's 666 economic system
IS to worship the beast. We are not to worship the beast. That is the first
and foremost command given by the third angel in Rev. 14: 9-11.
The first part of that command is always the most important part.
Here are some Scriptures encouraging us to go beyond mere
knowledge to understanding :
" The people who do not UNDERSTAND shall fall " -- Hosea 4:14
" And they that UNDERSTAND among the people shall instruct many " -- Daniel
11:33
" And to love Him [ God ] with all the heart, and with all the UNDERSTANDING,
and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor
as himself, is more than whole burnt offerings and sacrifices." Mark 12:33
The more we all update ourselves concerning technology (
regarding the e-purse system ) the more we will be alert to the hazards
of 666 financing . The more we apply ourselves to learning, the more we
will understand and not be deceived.
As, we said earlier, the smartcard has very dangerous potential for transacting
in the name, number or image of the beast.
The two things about the smartcard that are most perilous are these:
1. Transactions can morph from innocent to sinful, by simply applying a
different configuration.
2. People who use these cards will more readily want the subdermal 666 chip
in the right hand or forehead for even more "security".
Both 666 applications --- either by injected chip or smartcard--- will cost
us our very soul. Do we have friends, relatives, associates who do not realize
these things ? Sharing with them before we go will help them too to understand
......
"And their works do follow them" Rev. 14:13
