But the jab is not given "freely to those who want it". 

.
What I mean is, anyone can go into a drug store and get the jab, and nobody verifies if you have worshiped the Beast before they give it to you. It's given to anyone who asks for it. The Mark of the Beast will only be given to people who have worshiped the Beast.

We need to remember that the words of Apocalypse 13 are primarily figurative, meaning not necessarily to be taken literally. 

"Apocalyptic" language should be read as pointing to a reality but cloaking that reality in metaphorical and allusive language. For example, the idea of "the Mark of the Beast" [Greek: charagma] is a literary allusion to Deuteronomy 6:4-9, which says:

4 Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord.  5 Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole strength.  6 And these words which I command thee this day, shall be in thy heart:  7 And thou shalt tell them to thy children, and thou shalt meditate upon them sitting in thy house, and walking on thy journey, sleeping and rising.  8 And thou shalt bind them as a sign on thy hand, and they shall be and shall move between thy eyes.  9 And thou shalt write them in the entry, and on the doors of thy house.

Using literary allusion, St. John is saying that those who do this bad thing (receive "the Mark of the Beast") are those who love not "the Lord" but "the Beast" with their "whole heart, whole soul, and whole strength." 

Now, who/what is "the Beast?" I think it is a Counterfeit Bride of Christ that is wedded not to the God-Man, Jesus Christ, but to "the World." This Counterfeit Bride is also called "the Whore of Babylon" in the Apocalypse. The Whore is the symbol for all of those who claim the name Catholic Christian, but reject His teachings and instead follow the human teaching of a man who heads up the Counterfeit Bride, the "Bergoglian Church." These Catholics commit spiritual adultery by wedding themselves to the Beast ("the World") while their Bridgroom (Christ) is away prior to the Second Coming.

So while "the mark" is an actual literal thing. The description given using the figurative language of the Apocalypse should not necessarily be interpreted in a slavishly literal way. The vaccine passport or some future iteration is most likely "the mark." The vaccine passport cannot exist without the vaccine. So the vaccine should also be thought of as "the mark" or at least its precursor.

.
I don't see the connection between the vaccine and worshiping the Beast? The vax pass is something given to you if you receive a drug; the Mark is something given to you if you worship the Beast. Those are two entirely different things.

One "worships" the "Beast" when they prioritize "worldly" things to "spiritual" things. Such as prioritizing one's bodily health over concerns about aborting innocent babies. That's just one example, but relevant to the vaccine issue.

I very rarely post.  But I read alot here and elsewhere.  And one thing I do not see is anyone pointing out that before we get the Mark and the Antichrist that it serves, we get the Two Witnesses.  And they are world famous, the Bible makes that clear, they are not hidden.  They are God's Prophets and they sift the Faithful from the lost, they draw the line in the sand so that when the Mark comes out there is no doubt it is the Mark.  God would not condemn those with the Mark if He hadn't given them very, very clear information to recognise it if they chose to listen.  I do believe the Graphen, the Hydras, the Nano Bots and rest of it are the foundation stone for the Mark, but as yet they are not the complete system that will be the Mark.  The next stage in this must be the Two Witnesses appearing, has to be.  God would not leave us to be devoured as it appears is happening right now.  The Church is hidden right now, and we have no means of knowing God's Will in a clear way...and that is not how God works.  He comes last minute, He tests your courage and devotion that way...but He always shows very clearly and without doubt the true path...and at the minute everything is confused and a fudge and the priests and Faithful are in chaos.

That raises an interesting question regarding the Mark:

Can the faithful be duped/deceived into taking it (ie., not knowing it is the Mark), or, will all make their choice with full knowledge?

I don’t know the answer.  What do the theologians and exegetes teach?

One "worships" the "Beast" when they prioritize "worldly" things to "spiritual" things. Such as prioritizing one's bodily health over concerns about aborting innocent babies. That's just one example, but relevant to the vaccine issue.

"The trademark of Apple, for example, is not merely an apple, but an apple which has a bite out of it. Why is the bite out of it? Is it not the flag of Adam’s defiant disobedience to God, seeking for himself the knowledge of good and evil, at the suggestion of the devil? Yet I know many traditionalists, including clergy, who have Apple devices and pay for Apple technology."

So anyone here using Apple products? 

The SSPX hierarchy won’t even help people with medical exempt letters.

This is not entirely true. I know one case in NA where FSSPX priest offered such a letter.

Time to get alternative.
