There are a variety of new school tattoos with a focus on creativity. People that seek out these new tattoo’s for an outlet of their individuality may find a tattoo that is more contemporary, more art-oriented, and more than just a reminder for this old tattoo. As a young child I had multiple tattoos made […]
It’s all in the Bible (even those Bible-believers who don’t go there) and I know plenty of Christians who love the Bible, but believe that the word of God should be interpreted literally. My personal stance on divorce God’s word says this (see the following verse in Romans 6): “For the wages of sin is […]
I thought I’d try it out, but was disappointed. Maybe the only tribal tattoo in the world I can get. I guess I know what it looks like. Oh I feel so weird! I think I may be going to have my soul tattooed! Oh wait, I’m going to have to get a tattoo for […]

There are some tribal tattoos that people get every day on their bodies, which I call tattoos that were supposed to be tribal. They’re not tattoos they had and can’t be. It’s a mistake. You can get tribal tattoos that will last forever and you can be in the game indefinitely. It’s a matter of […]
The Catholic Church has a policy restricting “tattoos, photographs, self-mutilation or any other similar physical representation of a sexual organ, which are considered to be an insult to sexual modesty.” But the “sin” here means no actual “imitation,” which is a different thing. A person who is already wearing a tattoo is entitled to it. […]
It depends on the culture and its history. A tattoo was, at one time, a sign of respect, if not pride in the power and strength.
