Pithy, but it doesn't surpass my personal, practical objections to tattoos, generally. I consider evangelical tattoos to be more worthwhile, in that regard. I am just as hesitant to get "vanity" license plates. I can't think of any statement that they can make that is worth the extra $50?/year...

Personally, yes. Spiritually, it depends on its context (like most things spiritual).

@farouk Presbyterians? Why?

"And the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire from the midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, but the bush was not consumed. Then Moses said, 'I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush does not burn.'” Exodus 3:2-3 NKJV

I am not inclined to believe that popular vote can make a pursuit into a Godly one. Conversely, such cannot make it into an un-Godly pursuit, either. The Bible is clear on some matters, but less so on others.

There is room for that, but the Bible has very little to say on the subject. Those who are for or against are both just "winging it." When that is the case, I believe that there is Grace (toward Born-Again Christians) for errors of uncertainty.

I still think of it as a gray area. People must make peace with the Holy Spirit on a case-by-case basis.

Play that melodica! It is the keyboard that he blew into. (I have one, too.)

I withdrew the point that I was going to make because an argument is worthless when it comes to heart issues, and would be striving. (I felt the Spirit telling me to put on the brakes.)

And I agree that you believe that. That is essentially the same.

Let's agree to disagree.
