The Bible never mentions such chip. I'm a Christian and pretty knowledgeable in the book fo Revalations (I could stil lbe wrong. If so please tell me, supported with scripture.

). All it says is in the end times we'll ewither take the mark of the beat or die. It never speaks of a chip.
And The bible is not an old wives' tale. If you are a non-believer; fine. But there is a difference between wives' tales and books of historical siginificance. Some things in the Bible have been proved, not the God part of it but it has been used to accurately show historical events.
