I see so many young people with elaborate tattoos these days; and I wonder how those are going to look over the coming decades, when stuff expands, or droops and falls.
Not the greatest way to worship the Lord, IMHO...I think He would rather have our love for Him tattooed upon our hearts and minds.
Fortunately for them tattoos are no longer permanent with modern removal methods. Removing them is painful and expensive and some come off easier than others I hear. That said I agree with you about getting them in the first place and that our hearts and minds are where it counts.
