Chapter Three WHERE THERE’S SMOKE... I remember as a child deciding I was going to read the book of Revelation and figure out what it meant. Looking back, I’m not sure where my motivation came from (other than the prompting of the Holy Spirit), but I distinctly recall taking out the big family Bible and opening it to its final book. This big family Bible—gold-edged pages, gorgeously illustrated, beautifully laid out—didn’t get a lot of use, and I thought it would be a good idea for me to not only use it, but get to the bottom of what some of it meant. <strong>It</strong> didn’t take me long to realize that I wasn’t going to figure out Revelation any time soon. Beasts and kings, locusts and scorpions, seals and trumpets, plagues...I wondered how anyone could ever figure it out. But believing that the Bible really is the Word of God, I knew it had to mean something. Maybe someday I’d be able to understand. 21
22 BABYLON RISING As I got older I was intrigued as I encountered various authors who were confident they had deciphered Revelation’s true meaning. But while I was certainly no Bible expert, it often seemed to me that the concrete opinions of many so-called “experts” were nothing more than speculation. <strong>It</strong> was about this time that talk started swirling about the “beast” of Bible prophecy. Someone or something was going to cause a lot of trouble for God’s people in the end times. Someone or something was going to bring some massive deceptions into the word, the mark of the beast being one of them. I didn’t have a clue who or what that beast was going to be, and then word started spreading that a supercomputer in Belgium was so powerful and so farreaching and so technologically advanced that it was somehow going to be the great villain at the end of time. A computer? The beast? The antichrist? As little as I knew, it seemed unlikely that a computer was going to be one of the primary troublemakers of human history. (Little did I know that years later I would own a computer or two that would often act as though it were an agent of the devil...) How a computer was going to be the last-days beast of Bible prophecy was beyond me, but back in those days, computers were enigmatic enough in the eyes of many people for this theory to actually take hold. And it turned out that this would be just one of many interesting interpretations I would hear on the subject.
