		<description>The tattoo&#039;s being forbidden has to do with the traditional markings of the day which are related to idol worship and paganism.  Ironically the cross is originally a pagan symbol derived from egyptian symbology.  Don&#039;t worry, I&#039;m not a &quot;pagan&quot; lol... but I probably should be.

I&#039;ll be honest, you&#039;re ignorance is quite derogatory and I don&#039;t think it&#039;s nice to poke fun at people.  You go to church and carry many misconceptions, even the cross you look upon is sadistic in nature and really doesn&#039;t espouse what Christ is all about.  Still I don&#039;t knock your right to look upon it with wonderment and appreciation.  I try to be understanding yet you&#039;re very close-minded.  I don&#039;t like that.  I&#039;m bringing my younger brother to get a tattoo and it&#039;s going to contain words that you have ridiculed, yet he has a right to get the tattoo that expresses his desire to honor the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.  Or is it unacceptable to you because it will say &quot;Father, Son, Holy Ghost&quot;, as if the meaning of those words suddenly change without grammatical articles and preceding contextual phrase.  Please stop being ignorant, it makes Christians look bad.</description>

		<description>ἀναγεννάω
It&#039;s not a mistake, it means &quot;born again&quot;, a common Christian term for being saved, accepting Jesus, etc.

		<description>The Hebrew is not mirrored, it is spelled in reverse. If you looked at it in the mirror, the letters would be backwards. It should be &quot;אֲנִי לְדוֹדִי וְדוֹדִי לִי&quot; minus the training vowels.

It is the quote from SoS 6,3 used as the Jewish wedding vow. &quot;I am my beloved, and my beloved is mine.&quot;

Tattoo quote in the Bible: &quot;Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD. -Leviticus 19:28&quot; Of course, like all Biblical passages, this meaning is disputable.

Honestly, some of the people&#039;s comments here are as bad and uninformed as the original tattoo victims....

Thanks for the great page!</description>

		<description>Heya.

First off - nice blog! enjoyed a quick run through. yeah, just like many (i assume) i inadvertently stumbled here as the photo links on this page seem to have done well for themselves in Google&#039;s flagging system. 

On the one hand - they are hilarious. 

On the other - I&#039;d humbly offer a couple perspectives on this - I used to work in a tatto shop, and there are quite a few people who deliberately want shit inked on them backwards. Usually so it can stare back at them from a mirror. The text on the backwards guy reads &quot;I for my uncle, my Uncle for I&quot;, which is some old saying associated with the month alul and has all sorts of oldish meanings etc. So it sorta makes (some slight bit of) sense that its a deliberate mirror tat. Terrible Font work though!

the guy underneath i don&#039;t find unreadable.. but it sure is retarded and downright ugly. Joshua down and Jehova across.. what he getting at? did he hit the triple word points smack in the middle there?  I&#039;ve seen prison tats better looking than this!

I actually really liked the girl with the &#039;Father, Son, Holy Spirit Tat.&quot; she should get a tracheotomy and smoke through, right at the top of the spirit! 

Anyway, thanks for the random wall to holler on. sorry for the rant. delete it if you want. (obviously) 

Ciao!</description>
