Re: Tattoos-What do ya think?

I feel God has moral laws that never change...the 10 commandments were moral laws...and please don´t jump on the Sabbeth on this thread...however it is wrong to lie with a beast as a man or wife....it is wrong for the same sex to be as man and wife...I think a little common sense helps us in most of things we discuss.
In the OT they fought wars and killed people all the time...Only one nation was God´s people...I am so glad that changed...for by one blood he made a way for all people to come to Him.

Re: Tattoos-What do ya think?

Well my opinion is, if God wanted me to have tatoos he would have done it Himself.

Geesh God wants you Holy why not make ya that way so there is not a chance one will choose differently. God gives us the ability to do and obtain things. He wants us to have wealth and be stable with a good income and good health. Why not make us that way to begin with so we don't have to work at it? Your post is well goofy. I respect most all of what you say however this is one step too far beyond the edge of the cliff.

It was just a little too much huh? Yeah he coulda made some of us peacocks with all the vibrant colors. To me really tattoos are just an attempt to make a statement much like ornaments, dressing up (or down) in some people's minds. I like jewelry and that use to be a pride thing. I am really saying I don't think anyone getting ink injected into their skin is healthy.

maybe. I have read stories of people dying after getting a tattoo. But crazier things happen. Just yesterday here in Phoenix and police officer died after participating in a boxing match for charity against a PHX fireman. They had head gear and all and was actually a very safe situationm but he died. The fight was bad it was actually a little easy going but he died...freak situation. My point is that alot of things may not end up being healthy. but not all things are harmful. Tattoos being something that is not harmful.

Hey Ferd and DT, what kind of shoes are you wearing? What style and color? Just curious.
