>Lets look at the context who God is talking to in the passage of Leviticus 19. the verses 26-31 (which contain your arguement against my tattoo) deals with the Jewish pagan practices. When He says "you shall not make any cuttings in your flesh on account of the dead or tattoo any marks upon you..." He is warning the Jewish people about a pagan practice at funerals of the dead in which they would mutilate and tattoo their bodies with images or symbols of idols and false gods on them in order to obtain "favor" in their afterlife with the false gods they tattoo'd on them.
>so cool that you found the verse but you have to look at in context and since my tattoo (which is Galatians 6:17) is in no way appealing to any false gods or anything of that nature, i think you have no argument here man."
Other than the obvious statement about context, what's the best response here?
