This is one of my 10. It's my favorite. The zodiac symbol in the middle of the wings was my husband's. I got it a couple months after we met. After he passed away last year, I added the wings and my pet name for him.0 -

I just want to clarify firstly that I am in no way disregarding your religion or your beliefs here. If it comes off that way then it wasn't my intent and I'm truly sorry.
I'm just going to quote something that I found very interesting on this very point:
" First, the bible does not say modern day, non-ritualistic tattoos are wrong. Read Leviticus 19 in its entirety, and be aware of the context. Unless your tattoo is being done as part of a pagan ritual, you are doing nothing wrong by getting one.
People also love to proclaim “the body is a temple” and should be treated as such. Have you seen many temples? Temples are regularly highly decorated...
“But god made you perfect, and a tattoo is a desecration of god’s work.”
God made me with terrible vision and I chose to permanently alter my eyes by undergoing laser eye surgery. Should I be condemned for this as well? After all, I chose to make permanent changes to the perfect body I was born with.
Another point that I hardly see brought up is the fact that not everyone follows the same religion. Why should someone care about a misinterpreted, ancient law, printed in a religious book that they have no association with? If you want to avoid tattoos due to your own religious beliefs, that is fine. But don’t try to push those beliefs onto others who may not even be of the same faith."
The main point I take from this is your absolutely within your rights to have your own opinion and ideology about tattoos, but is it really worth commenting in such a negative manor towards others?
Love thy neighbour, it just so happens that your neighbours in this thread have made the decision to get inked

No, I just don't like it when people push their opinion on others. I know it happens, all the time... but today my filter must be down.0 -
