Calling barcodes on groceries the mark of the beast is already pretty dumb, but how can you justify extending that label to biometrics where there is no mark or chip and it's literally just recognizing inherent characteristics of individual people?

No comrade, as I said, this isn't it. Also "the slippery slope" is a fallacy.

Kinda hard to argue something is the mark of the beast when there is no mark.

This has been a "boy who cried wolf" scenario for a very long time.

Yes, as I say. This is simply for convenience. Nobody takes the mark seriously, comrade.
