Does the New Testament even make comment on tattoos? Does it say they are forbidden?

Is that a valid standard of righteousness?

How about, "Taking His Name in vain?" You won't find a prohibition anywhere in the New Testament.

How about beastility?

Christianity is the only religion that uses the last 1/4 of its sacred text to nullify the front 3/4. What a confused theology. In the end it will be Adam and Eve shaking their heads saying, "Has G-d truly said...?"

The Enemy does not have to be creative. He can use the same pitch to man today as he did to Adam and Eve.

Not so. The Hebrew Scriptures are the Word of God. Jesus is the Word of God in the flesh. He did not come to abolish the Law, but to perfect it. Saying that Jesus "nullified" the Old Testament is an old, old error from the days of Marcion, who was excommunicated from trhe Catholic Church in around 144 A.D.
