A sin is a spiritual mistake that has consequences. So it probably qualifies.
Think back 5 years. What would you have chosen as a tattoo? Think back 10 years. What would you have chosen as a tattoo then. If you are old enough, think back 15 years and ask the same question.
I can't think of anything that I've been dedicated to enough to mark my body with it. But it's a personal decision and worthy of being respected as such.

According to the old testament:
Leviticus 19:28
" 'Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD.
However in the new testament:
1 Corinthians 6:19
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;
I don't know about you, but I've NEVER seen a christian church without decorations.
It's open to interpretation. I don't hold to these tenants, personally, so I'd be inclined to say get tattooed.

Well.....if you are a Christian (which I'm going to assume you are), then you need to realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit lives in you. You can't go putting graffiti on the temple....know what I mean?
Also, someone said in an answer above mine that Jesus has "King of kings and Lord of lords"....that is true....but that's not written in earthly ink.
God bless.

Sin is a vague concept. I have 4 tats and being as there's nothing vulgar about any of them, how could they be immoral or wrong?

I don't believe tattoos are a sin but would not advise anyone to get one.

I have two. One is a chinese symbol meaning "Angel" with wings around it. I just like self-irony.
