Revelation 13:16-18
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a MARK in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the MARK, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and sixSorry, there is no mark placed anywhere, just a fingerprint scan embedded on a piece of plastic (either in picture form, or in a chip). Hence the '666' monicker does not make sense. The scriptures are quite specific here, this is a visible mark placed on the hand or head - not a biometric reading anymore than taking your picture is somehow capturing your soul.
