This question is merely out of curiousity; I'm not going to judge you. I just want imput.
Why did you get a tattoo (or more than one tattoo) and is it Christian themed?
Most tattooed Christians I have seen have Christian-themed body art such as crosses, praying hands, Jesus, Bible verses, etc.

I don't want a tattoo or anything; just asking the question out of mere curiousity.
If you know a tattooed Christian, you can also talk about that, too.

Oh dear, no (it's not Christian). Sadly, I have a 'tramp stamp' from before my Christian days --- a symbol of a sun on my lower back. I'm hoping to get it removed at some point. I'm not into tattoos at all, but because of how I feel about the Lord's Word, I certainly wouldn't mind having a scripture verse somewhere --- if I found one that I was sure was 'the one', I think I'd put it on my right ring finger, to show that I'm married to my husband (that shows on my left hand) and that I'm part of the bride of Christ!

I do have a tatoo of a celtic cross on my right arm, below my shoulder. I got it before I became a Christian almost exactly 1 year before as a matter of fact. I wouldn't mind getting another, but I haven't decided, yet. If I do, though, it will definitely be reflective of my new life in Christ.

I am a christian, I have four tattoos. I have a texas star on my upper back, my name in chinese on my lower back, the chinese symbol for water on my right leg, and a butterfly on my left foot. I also have 14 peircings. I don't think tatoos make you any less of a christian.
JESUS LOVES ME AND MY TATTOOS!

I don't know many Christians with tattoos and I don't think I'd ever get one. Not that I have anything against them or that I think it's wrong, I just can't really see myself doing that.
If I were to get one it would be something simple and maybe Christian themed..maybe a celtic cross or something.

I am a Christian and I have a tattoo of Eeyore on my left ankle. I got it before I became a christian. I wish now that I had not as I now know that it is a disgrace to the body God has entrusted me with

I have a tattoo of a court jester on my thigh. I got it because I wanted it. I went with a friend (another Christian) and we both got one.
