Blog of a discontent conforming noncomformist

I was reading an article Sunday in the Grand Rapids Press. This article deals with how the government of the state of Michigan has been asking the Amish community to allow them to implant electronic tags in their cattle. Reading this article got me to thinking again hwo the best of intentions can go wrong.

The state says that this is being done to monitor disease in cattle. But to the Amish, this constitutes the mark of the Devil from revelations. This just goes to show how the best of intentions has the distinct possibility to go horribly wrong.
