As a Christian, we are under Grace, not the Law. Some things are not profitable, even if they are allowed. When in doubt, stick to the Law. The Laws are for our benefit for the most part. Some are for symbolic and prophetic reasons.( Sabbaths and Feast Days).

Jews have the same problems Christians and every other sect has. Some follow every jot and tittle, and others, not so much. If you choose a tat after you know it's forbidden, it's not so much the tat, but your attitude towards God. The Law isn't explained, but it probably has to do with idol worship or God figuring you look like He wants you to look. It may even have to do with pagan ritual, as most pagan religions practice the art.

but your attitude towards God

I agree...but a lot of folks have a 'good attitude' towards God, but do wholly their own thing. I suspect we are on the same page...
