I heard Laura’s show today, & I’m certainly confused. A woman called in and said it’s in the Bible in Leviticus that tattoos should not be done, Laura talked to the woman, quoted the verse out of the Bible and then said, before this discussion today is over I’m going to be coming out in favor of Tattoos. Was that her way of saying that she’s against Christianity? It was just sooooo weird, the way the conversation went down. I hope Media Matters doesn’t catch her up in this, it wouldn’t sound good.

You got it out of context. I think when she made that comment it was after a man was telling her he is a Christian and he has 3 tattoos and he will be proud to go before God and show him his tattoos. One is of Christ and the other two had Christian meaning. I think her comment was tongue in cheek.

Laura is definitely a Christian and she is not afraid to talk about her faith.

You've got that all backwards and out of context.

Last I checked, the Apostolic Council (see the Acts of the Apostles), provided a very limited portion of the Mosaic Law for Christians to keep. I think, for Christians, no tattoos went the way of no eating pork and no linen-wool-blend clothing back in about 35 A.D.

Being pro-tattoo might be anti-Jewish, but it doesn’t sound anti-Christian to me. Indeed the Copts often have tattos of the Cross done on the back of their hands as a sign of their faith (and defiance against the Muslims).
