The only thing I could find in the Bible is an Old Testament passage about God's people being prohibited from "making marks on one's body in rememberance of the dead" (not exact wording, but as close as I recall).

"Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the Lord."

Leviticus 19:28

Yes, Leviticus is the fount of all law! Let's not hold back.

Let's bring in penalties for wearing clothes made of mixed fibers, or sowing soybeans and corn in the same field.

We should make it mandatory for menstruating women to be set apart seven days, and burn two pigeons on the church altar on the eighth day, before she can go out in public.

And the fruit trees! Damn you idolators and sinners who eat fruit from trees less than five years old! Don't you know you're sinning against God's Holy Word? You all ought to be flogged and stoned, don't you know it's right there in Leviticus?

How can you people justify bans on tattoos by referring to Leviticus, and yet not work for the implementation of every word of God's Law? This is the acid test for all true believers.

Unless you are willing to write it into law that any priest's daughter who becomes a prostitute is to be burned alive in fire, then you are picking and choosing from God's Holy Laws. You're a blasphemer and you'll surely burn in Hell for your insolence before the Almighty.
