i dont have any tats, my parents dont have any, it hasn't really occurred to me to go out and get one. also, as i grow older/wiser, i find that what motivated me yesterday is just plain foolishness today. like my cousin's twisted-sister tat from the 80's.....yeah, "we're NOT GONNA TAKE IT!!" "NOOO! WE AIN'T GONNA TAKE IT...." see where i'm going with this?

Dear Itchy Taint, its not so much about what people think about tattoos but what God thinks about them. There are clear scriptures that marking the body provokes God's anger and is sin.
You know, Itchy Taint, people have sinned greatly against God. He gave us a way of living that set us apart as holy and blessed. The body is HIS work of art--perfect in the way HE designed it, created it and asked us to care for it. There are scriptures about healthy, eating and how to keep the body in its optimal condition.
Sad to say, we disobey the HIS commands and ways. Hence, why Jesus came--to tell people that they don't have to live in sin, could have relationship with the Father and be forgiven of all their unrighteousness--the wrong way of living--immoral, lack of virtues etc.
There are many other scriptures that speak to the care of the body and the truth that the body is our reasonable worship--what we do to it matters....
All the best Itchy taint--sorry to hear you have so many. Your body is not a bill-board, or suppose to be used as canvas. Its God's temple and it is holy. Just telling you the truth beyond measure. Satan loves to pervert the people of God--it robs them of the Glory God gave them in the first place.

God does not care what you put in on your skin.
He cares what's on your heart
Personally I think they are a mistake, permanently marking your body on little more than a brain fart
Old testament Law does not apply to Christians.......now who is ignorant?
