Randy G. At my age I really don't care much about what people think. It was generally out of curiosity as I see so much judging here.

Colson, you've made my day. I need nothing else. Thank you.

You are a very cool woman. I would still think highly of you regardless of how you dressed or what tattoo's you put on your persona.

Why are you worried about what strangers and acquaintances think of you? I would be more worried about what God thinks about it first, and then your family and close friends. Chasing after popularity is always going to leave you feeling fake, empty and disappointed.
I guess that I didn't really give you a direct answer, because I honestly think that my opinion doesn't matter.

BTW, permanent tattoos look bad when you get older, and your skin starts to sag. Tattoo removal is expensive, and seems painful.

From the thumbs down, someone obviously didn't like that answer, I see. There is a passage in Leviticus that seems to imply that God doesn't like tattoos, depending on how you interpret it (Lev. 19:28), but it is your decision, not mine. I don't waste my energy going around hating people because they made choices different than I would have (Romans 14:9-13).
Have a good day!

I've got a scarab (means eternal life in Egyptian) on my right shoulder, two tribal arm bands, a cross on my left, jewish star on my right peck, "Allah" in islam on my left peck, the word "Memory" in graffiti (which is my Alias in my graffiti crew) at the top of my back and the ten commandments on my back as well... all my own artwork. My body is dedicated to God so i don't think he'll mind too much.

No. But I would think that at some time in your life you made a choice with the influence of the world.
I do not think God would condemn you for it. Why should I or anyone else?

I wouldn't think bad of you at all. I got a tattoo for my birthday this past year. It's small, out of sight, and nothing bad. It's kanji, and it says "Knight."

Who cares what tatoos you have. If you find a "christian" who makes a big deal about it then they are one in name only - and that counts for very little.

Yes.

No, because it's all about who you are, not what is on you.
Personally, I don't care for tattoos, but I'm not offended by those who have them.

No. You can't judge someone based on the way they dress or look.

Not really, maybe I wouldn`t date with you, but there is nothing wrong with your cristianity. What Jesus sees is your inner soul, not your physic.
