Oh yeah, this should be perfectly safe. What could go wrong?
Maybe we could buy ‘customized memories’ of our night with some movie star or our trip to the moon.....................
So, does this involve human testing...and if so, how much do they have to pay folks?
Sheesh, is it even legal?
“We Can Remember It for You Wholesale”
Messing in God’s sandbox...........
If you can manage your memories so can someone else....
In the future:
Man #1: Remember when Hillary Clinton lost to Donald Trump, instead of being the first woman president?
Man #2: No.
Man #1: Funny, me neither.
I’m sure there would be a market for that but likely not as extensive as you’d think.
Would you rather “remember” being with Kate Beckinsake or would you rather experience being with someone? It’s not the same thing.
I think the bigger market for it won’t be buying memories. It’ll be deleting bad ones.
I see that as a bad idea, but I can understand it.
Hmm. Wonder which scientists haven’t seen Total Recall?
What are the odds of this being used to manipulate people into doing the bidding of the state?
"Ye will be like the Almighty..."
Um, no. We won't.

In *either* direction.
Anybody ever see the movie “Forbidden Planet?”
And some folks laugh at Bible Prophecy.
From “Got Questions”
Question: “What is the mark of the beast?”
Answer: The main passage in the Bible that mentions the mark of the beast is Revelation 13:15-18. Other references can be found in Revelation 14:9, 11, 15:2, 16:2, 19:20, and 20:4. This mark acts as a seal for the followers of Antichrist and the false prophet (the spokesperson for the Antichrist). The false prophet (the second beast) is the one who causes people to take this mark. The mark is literally placed in the hand or forehead and is not simply a card someone carries.
The recent breakthroughs in medical implant chip and RFID technologies have increased interest in the mark of the beast spoken of in Revelation chapter 13. It is possible that the technology we are seeing today represents the beginning stages of what may eventually be used as the mark of the beast. It is important to realize that a medical implant chip is not the mark of the beast. The mark of the beast will be something given only to those who worship the Antichrist. Having a medical or financial microchip inserted into your right hand or forehead is not the mark of the beast. The mark of the beast will be an end-times identification required by the Antichrist in order to buy or sell, and it will be given only to those who worship the Antichrist.
Many good expositors of Revelation differ widely as to the exact nature of the mark of the beast. Besides the implanted chip view, other speculations include an ID card, a microchip, a barcode that is tattooed into the skin, or simply a mark that identifies someone as being faithful to the Antichrist’s kingdom. This last view requires the least speculation, since it does not add any more information to what the Bible gives us. In other words, any of these things are possible, but at the same time they are all speculations. We should not spend a lot of time speculating on the precise details.
The meaning of 666 is a mystery as well. Some speculated that there was a connection to June 6, 200606/06/06. However, in Revelation chapter 13, the number 666 identifies a person, not a date. Revelation 13:18 tells us, This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666. Somehow, the number 666 will identify the Antichrist. For centuries Bible interpreters have been trying to identify certain individuals with 666. Nothing is conclusive. That is why Revelation 13:18 says the number requires wisdom. When the Antichrist is revealed (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4), it will be clear who he is and how the number 666 identifies him.
Imagine a scenario where I say I want to know what its like to be a cowboy in the American west in the 1800s? and someone creates that experience mentally.
Be careful what you wish for. The Hollywood version might be pleasant, the real thing, not so much. How about what it would be like to be, say, Louis XIV? The Sun King, first monarch in all of Europe of the time, balls and gowns and every luxury imaginable? That'd also be the guy who had an abscessed tooth removed, the operator took a large piece of his jaw with it and drilled into his sinus and permanently disfigured His Majesty, and oh, did I mention this was all without novocaine? I'll pass on that one, thanks.
Our society is already in a sort of data retrieval experiment - access to the Internet has placed more power in that regard into the hands of individuals than any scholar ever had in the largest libraries in the world, ever. What are we doing with it? Cat pictures and porn. Well, and FR too, I suppose, there's that...
Mind blowing abilities and absolute obedience to Central Control.
Yes but my memory chip implant is suppressing those memory files.
And we thought having our yahoo account hacked was a problem.
