I think the mark of the Beast is Good and I'm looking foreward to it's institution.
Why? It promises to eleminate 90% of all crimes and 90% of all wars. The only crimes left are crimes of passion.
Think of the benefits. Reduced Crime, drug dealers and black market industry over, an end to political corruption!!!
What is my reasoning...
You have to take the mark in order to buy or to sell. My solution... don't buy and don't sell. Work for free! Here is the Idea. If you want a new big screen TV you walk down the assembly line and build two as you go; following them along. You get to take home one and give the other to a retired person or a person who has a "dirty job". You want a new car? Build two... take one home and donate the other. Need groceries? Take in the produce from your garden or flowerbox in your appartment and donate it to the grocery store or food production plant, and take home your groceries for free! Of course the farmers get a sizeable donation. Then what once a year you take your country's portion say 10% of the GDP and donate it to Israel. Israel then redistributes it to the impoverished countries. It's a national TITHE!!! We try to pull the world out of poverty.

NO MORE TAXES!!![/color]
So maybe the mark of the beast is good if it forces people to stop worshipping money, after all Adam and Eve did not get paid to take care of their stewardship.
[color=#FF0000]OF COURSE THE MARK OF THE BEAST IS VERY, VERY, VERY BAD TO TAKE!!![/color]
Sorry to say the world is too lazy for such an event.
