“We’ve had a lot of Amish that have registered their premises, and we have a lot who are resistant to it. My understanding is that they’re not opposed to premise registration,” McGraw said, “but they’ve drawing their toe in the sand because it could lead to individual animal registration, which to them is the ‘mark of the beast.’ ”

My grandmother told me that a lot of people refused to get social security cards because they thought it was the 'mark of the beast' from Revelations. I wonder how the Amish stood on that issue. This article seems to imply that the Amish interpreted the Bible passage to mean that you couldn't 'mark' your 'beasts', like cows.

“I wonder how the Amish stood on that issue.”

The Amish and the Mennonites do not get/use Social Security Cards.

The Amish should be using a German language Bible.
