What do you care anyway? If you have a problem with me being a Christian then by all means have it... I'll like you back anyway. Anyway I don't know all your American sayings as I'm in ignorant Brit. Oh and by the way yes my youth leader does no doubt have experience in 'Biblical Exegesis'. And if you want to take cheap shots by all means do... so long as they are at me and not the people I care about.
 
By the way I love the stress you put on the word context! Really means a lot to you when reading everything but my e-mail hey chico?!

Doesn't surprise me that a Christian would attempt to add 10¢ when the average person only attempts to put their 2¢ in...
 
Yeah it was a cheap shot, but you know....

Interesting topic here so being a Christian I thought I'd add my own 10 cents!
 
Basically The Bible is very clear on this topic in Leviticus 19:28 where it says "Never cut your bodies in mourning for the dead or mark your skin with tattoos, for I am the Lord". Seems to be a pretty clear message to me.
 
And a bit of a warning. I don't mean to sound nasty or judgemental but you should be careful when you start rationalising things as this is a clear sign, that my experienced youth leader gave me, as sin getting a foothold over you and you will probably eventually not even question the sin.
 
In Christian Love
