Marijuana (in a medical context...)

The issue is often witness talking points: all the young ppl with Bible verses tattooed with whom I have talked seem to have received them as witness tools.

@Taken You seem pretty much in favor then of mj benefits.

@LadyofFireandLace Yes; you're right about earrings or their clasps having the habit of going walk-about during sleep. (Many men and boys wear earrings too, and this is a painful lesson they, too, have had to learn...) Whereas a tattoo: once firmly in, stays in..........

Nothing else is on a par with Scripture........

Well, tradition is never going to supersede Scripture.........

@Taken When Paul used the term 'traditions' he was using it in the sense of Scripture for which the Holy Spirit had allowed him to be the penman. "Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle." (2 Thessalonians 2.15)

@Taken Proverbs 17.17 I agree; context is important. I guess the point of the previous post also was that tattooing can be tastefully done (as you maybe implied with your comment: "And flower or butterfly tats would certainly be a more pleasant topic") Seems also like so many Christians -...

@Taken I must say that some of the stream-of-consciousness threads on the forum are intriguing - especially when they go on and on (like - I suppose - some of my threads), but finding the thread of ultimate meaning can at times be elusive.........

@Taken We shall be changed..... "In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed." (1 Corinthians 15.52)

@Taken Romans 8 says: 'if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His'. That is, a true believer is always indwelt by the Holy Spirit by Whom he cries, Abba, Father.

@Heart2Soul I think there is a difference between whether the ads may be mildly annoying or actually prohibitive to further use of the forums. I don't think they prohibit further use...........

I don't see 'saved today, lost tomorrow' as Biblical..........

@LadyofFireandLace It's a bit like pierced ears, really, isn't it? It's something that you have, and it's just there , while you live your life..........

@Taken Sometimes about faith, sometimes not. Someone quoted in the Huffington Post has commented about how many mature women seem to be really flourishing with finding it a way of increasing their confidence: "...Most of my clients are in the older bracket," Gallo-Kohlas told The Huffington...
