A Technology That Dominionists Will Find Useful
June 29, 2015 at 9:05 am
Face recognition technology. Imagine Dominionist approved churches, or any Conservative church, using this to enforce church attendance:
Quote:Churches just got a new way to figure out who is sleeping in on Sunday morning: facial recognition software that scans the congregation and records who showed up. Churchix is a product of Skakash LLC, which sells Face-Six for law enforcement, border control, and commercial applications. According to CEO Moshe Greenshpan, in the 4 months since the technology launched, 30 churches have already deployed the software and service, which could be used to target members who need a nudge or to identify potential major donors among those who attend faithfully.
Think about how this could be applied if certain Conservative elements gain total power and control of our government. It would help make a theocracy more applicable.

I'm all in favor of making christerism as onerous as possible.
If they be busy 'persecuting' their own flock, it is less time for the rest of us to be annoyed by the christian menace.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

They've always been complaining about computer chips in your arms or tattoos or UPC Barcodes or whatnot as the "Mark of the Beast"
But... with facial recognition technology... this means... the Mark of the Beast... is... FACES!!!!!
QUICK! EVERYONE RIP OFF YOUR FACE!!!

Haha! They've used prayer request cards, membership registration, offering envelopes with addresses, etc. to compile mailing lists for years. I got mail for years after I quit attending church. They didn't know if you stopped attending unless they kept a date register for last prayer request, tithe, etc. Which they might have, they did stop the mailings after a while, so this implied some sort of database that kept track of this and then dropped a name after a long enough time had passed without any new input.

Sorry, old school. In my childhood there were men that walked up and down the isles and woke sleepers, stopped conversations, pulled out the kids not demonstrating the correct behavior. Each time it happened a significant portion of the congregation would turn and give the evil eye.
