An elementary school in Louisiana, planning to introduce a palm vein
scanner in their cafeteria, is faced with the challenge of overcoming
the concerns of some parents who fear the scanner could give their
children the biblical Mark of the Beast.

After parents of
students at the Moss Bluff Elementary School read a letter introducing a
new program using a palm vein scanner to move students through the
lunch line faster, many parents opposed the program, saying it could be
prelude to giving their children the 666 Mark of the Beast.

According
to a parent Mamie Sonnier, whose child is a student at Moss Bluff
Elementary School, "I was very, very mad and disappointed [with the
school authorities]." She explained: "As a Christian, I've read the
Bible, you know go to church and stuff. I know where it's going to end
up coming to, the mark of the beast. I'm not going to let my kids have
that."
