Comment:	Can you show me the scripture in the bible where it says NOT to get tattoos please, the only one most people argue is leviticus, "You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh on account of the dead or tattoo any marks upon you: I am the LORD." Does this verse really condemn all tattoos? Read it properly Leviticus 19:26-31 deals with pagan practices and God's prohibitions against adopting those practices. In verse 28, God is warning the Jewish people about a pagan practice at funerals, where pagans would mutilate/mark themselves to appease their false gods. The pagans hoped that by cutting themselves and marking images/symbols of idols on their bodies, that they would obtain favour in the afterlife from their false gods, both for themselves and for those who just died. So can you find anything else???? Maybe your body is a temple................. Paul is not opposing tattoos but warning the residents of Corinth about the dangers of sexual promiscuity, especially in the pagan practice of having sex with ritual prostitutes i have tattoos and i have had them done since i have been a christian, they help me with my ministry, there a talking point to non christians with tattoos, and help minister
