Bar codes = the Devil

A Russian dairy company that has been inexplicably crossing out its barcodes for five years has finally revealed why: to ward off the Antichrist. Seriously.

Russkoe Moloko, the merry band of complete fucking lunatics company in question, had the following to say in a press release:

"It is well-known that the bar code on products is a mark of the Beast. It contains three invisible sixes (666), the name of the Antichrist which is hidden in the Scriptures...By crossing our barcode we want to show our position â€" we are with our Lord Jesus Christ, not the Antichrist and his servants. It's not superstition."

ZOMG!  It's Satan!  Down with computers!

*looks at ruler*

YOU TOO?!

Finally!  Someone has explained the mystery of bar codes.

Bar codes are easy to read. If it's "The Pink Flamingo", it's a gay bar. If it's "Just Shot Me a Bear!", it's for repressed gays. "Harley Heaven", for leather gays. "Foxhole", only atheist gays.

You just have to know the codes.

I've known this since the 70's.

Christians were complaining from the moment they first appeared on groceries. Since no "antichrist" figure has showed up and we are still not required to have barcodes on our foreheads, we can safely assume that this is just another wild Christian fantasy as well as another thing for them to complain about.

Yeah, but a Cadbury Egg WITH a bar code! 

[AllPurposeAtheist]

Oh hell no.. It's a global nuclear meltdown!  Ok, chocolate in slightly warm weather, BUT CLOSE ENOUGH!

[PickelledEggs]

No not mutual peace. The xtians will think the Muslims are sending the mark of Satan via foil wrapped chocolate. And the Muslims will think that the xtians sent the jihad eggs.

Sent via your mom.

Ok!  Then this is not a forum post!

I know someone who had a hard time using a bank card, because they thought it was the mark of the beast to use it.

I temporarily worked with a woman who had to take a prayer break every time "666" came up in her numbers. (This was a newspaper accounting office.) I gradually came to realize it was a con for her to take extra breaks.

Ok, stealing that should I ever get an accounting job.
