It's funny, all the bible wankers screamed about "the mark of the beast" over things like RealID. Now we have fascists setting up surveillance and censorship tools to tie speech and movement to centralized ID...and they're lining up to lick boots.
You should need to show ID and prove you're over 18 to enter a church. At least we know they're actually harmful to children.
The people pushing this are the same ones who are always screaming about "fascists". Also, your ideas in your post are anti-liberal and anti-constitutional (in the US).
In the context of government-mandated identity checks for speech, either both are unconstitutional or they're not, in the latter case it's time to start cracking down on the dangers of religion.
I hope society comes to the former conclusion and the egregious attack on freedom of speech on the internet is discontinued.
A strict reading of the constitution would also imply that limiting gun ownership to those who show ID and can prove they are 18 is unconstitutional. "Anti-liberal" and "anti-constitutional" are in the eye of the beholder.
