Yelena: Do you want some ice before your brain overheats.
Xander Cage: Ice. Yeah, you could chisel some off your heart, if you could find
it.
Response to comment [from an athiest]: "Do you even know how stupid this thread makes you look?"
Aren't you the one who wears a dress? Deut 22:5, Mt 19:4.
"Are you the one who's existence is so worthless and pathetic you have to bring this up every chance you get even when it is completely irrelevant?"
"...[Y]ou have to bring this up ..."
"Yes, dimwit, you have said this before."
"I don't care."
You need to live as the man God made you (Deut 22:5, Mt 19:4, 1 Co 6:9).
Response to comment [from a Christian]: "We are not under the law of Israel."
True, but why
look like a pagan heathen?
"These pagan practices were most likely associated with Egyptian idolatry and
were therefore to be avoided. The practice of making deep gashes on the face and
arms or legs, in times of grief, was universal among pagans. It was seen as a
mark of respect for the dead, as well as a sort of propitiatory offering to the
gods who presided over death. The Jews learned this custom in Egypt and, though
weaned from it, relapsed into the old superstition (cf.
Is. 22:12;
Jer. 16:6;
47:5). Tattoos also were
connected to names of idols, and were permanent signs of apostasy." MacArthur,

Le 19:27
Response to comment [from other]: "People can be very small minded creatures thrashing around in their tiny little boxes, the box that they have constructed for themselves! "All life is illusion, and limitation is a mental construct that can be altered anytime."
You forgot to provide a source for this quotation. Was it Cheech Marin?
Response to comment [from an atheist]: "Too much of a wimp to get one, am I right?"
It's courageous to dress as the sex God made you (Deut 22:5, Mt 19:4, Re 21:8).
Response to comment [from a Christian]: "I never associated tats with redneck, usually associated them with prison. In the gym I see so many people with tats, in the service I see women sleeved, its something I always thought of as a fad, or an attention getter, its so played."
It's not attractive. If you have something to say write it down on a piece of paper or draw something.
Response to comment [from other]: "What a ridiculous thread. If you don't want tats then don't get em', but quit trying to get on a soapbox whereby colleagues and friends are supposedly disapproving of those who have them. That's just a complete crock."
You've got "Mom" in heart on your arm don't you?
"Nope. I don't actually have any tats though I've considered getting a couple lately, but rather ones that are far less cheesy than that thanks..."
You're too cute for words. :o Don't draw on yourself. That's what a canvas is for.
"Oh geez....if you don't like the things then abstain from getting one. Just don't lecture others about their own decisions to have them..."
No lecture. This is not a hill to die on.
"I'm already an artist to some extent thanks and such isn't limited to a 'canvas'."
How 'bout an Ed Hardy t-shirt? We just don't want to see your old leathery, bubbling fat skin with "Mom" turning into "Oom" in your later years.
Response to comment [from other]: "Art is art no matter the canvas."
When you die do you care if your body is buried? cremated? Should the human body be treated with respect? Why or why not?
Response to comment [from an atheist]: "I wear whatever I feel like wearing."
Payday someday (Deut 22:5, Mt 19:4
).
For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in
wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the Lord will abhor the bloody and
deceitful man.
But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in
thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple [Ps. 5:4–7].
"A little different translation at this point I think will be helpful for a
better understanding of this passage. “For no God art thou whom wickedness can
please. The evil man cannot dwell with thee. The arrogant shall not dare to
stand before thine eyes. Thou hatest all workings of iniquity. Thou wilt destroy
them that speak lies: the man of blood and deceit Jehovah abhorreth. As for me,
through thy great mercy will I enter thy house. I will fall down, facing thy
holy temple in fear.”
This is the comfort of the godly. When you look about you today, you may have
(as I do) a sinking feeling as you see the evil that is abroad and the iniquity
that abounds. It is something that makes you sick at heart. What is the comfort
of the godly in days like these? The psalmist tells us. The hatred that he has
in his heart for evil reveals that he is on God’s side. God also hates it. It
also makes God sick to look down on this sinful world of today. Wickedness does
not please God, nor will it please those who know God. Evil cannot dwell with
Him, for “… God is light, and in him is no darkness at all” (1 John 1:5).
Habakkuk said it like this (when the Lord told him that the Chaldeans were going
to invade God’s land): “Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst
not look on iniquity …” (Hab. 1:13). Wickedness may prosper for a time, but the
day is surely coming which will bring destruction and eternal shame to those who
practice lies and iniquity. God has made it very, very clear that there is a day
of judgment coming, and evil is not going to prevail. God spells it out in
Revelation 21:8 which says, “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the
abominable, and murderers, and whore-mongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and
all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and
brimstone: which is the second death.” Now I may sound like an antiquated
preacher referring to a passage like this, but I believe that the judgment of
God is coming upon this earth."

Response to comment [from an atheist]: [Misquote] "Idol threat..."
You wear women's clothing (Deut 22:5, Mt 19:4 ). It will come as no surprise to the reader that you also misquote me (2 Tim. 3:8). Jesus loves you (Jn 3:16). Jesus is willing to save you (2 Pe 3:9). Repent (Eze 18:30-32; Ac 17:30). Believe (Mk 9:23).
