I said it was my opinion.If you want to paint your body that's your choice.Ill call it graffiti,my choice of words. Although I refer to our bodies as the temple of GOD . Its at your choosing to do with it as you desire.Igave no chapter or verse.

And as you use language like "Graffiti", you issue condemnation, or at least, annoyance, at those who feel the liberty to do so. Why couldn't you just keep it at, "It's something I choose not to do because of personal taste"?

Agreed you do have your own opinion and they or it is valid. All I was saying is that saying the term graffiti it gives the suggestion that it is negative or illegal.

And you are very welcome to have it. Never mind some of the screaming liberals amongst us who are intolerant of anyone that does not believe like they do

I'm thinking about connecting the dots (freckles) on my arm to make some kind of picture!
