When I see beautiful bridal gowns on women with tattoos down their necks, shoulders, arms & back, I just cringe. I thought it was just me...so glad I’m not alone. Body piercing I don’t get either...especially the nose rings.
So unattractive.
ugh. i wouldnt voluntarily deal with tatted up and pierced weirdos
How come folks often discuss verse 28, the one you quoted, and not verse 27? You know, the verse about not shaving one’s beard.Good question. I guess I'd have to look into it to see if the CCC frowns on tattoos, and if so, then blame the "Old Testament" for the beard thing... :)
Because the shaving of the beard was a thing to set the Jewish males apart from the gentiles to make them an example. This is Leviticus after all, the Laws by God to the JEWISH people.
They do not apply to gentiles.
However they do show God’s taste is conservative tinted.
Fads last a short time, then are uncool.
Just like suicide, never take a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
In ten years when tats are uncool again whole lot of people going to be wearing long sleeves on hot days.
Okay, thanks. Gonna go back and shave my beard now. And get that lovely full-faced rose garden tattoo I’ve always admired. -lol-
