I'm a Saint. Not because of me, but because of Him
Sort of a spinoff from the hair color thread.
What do you think of tattoos and piercings (besides ear piercings)? My family seem to think both are sinful and/or trashy. When my uncle heard of my desire to get my belly button pierced (which I did indeed get), he sent me some long e-mail about why it's wrong and ungodly and all I could think was, "seriously?"
I honestly don't have a problem with either. I have no tattoos at the moment, but would love to get some one day. I don't think either are immodest or ungodly. Of course, I'm probably the odd person out on that one.
I don't see anything wrong with them, as the average person does. But I do see something with when people let the tats/piercing overtake them and it becomes their entire identity. As Christians our identity is in Christ and I feel that making your appearance your identity detracts from that.
Of course, non-Christians don't care about Christ, thus they don't feel the need to make their identity about him.
