Just curious - do any ex-religious have religious tattoos and how do you feel about them now?
I have an "Om" symbol on my shoulder but it's a tribute piece so it doesn't make me think "religion", So I don't regret it.
I have a St. Briget cross on my left tit..got it on my 50th Bday..don't ask..
But asking is half the fun? lol
I've always been a none believer but I've seen religious tattoos I've liked.
Just a paw print on my shoulder. I guess maybe I'm a reformed Bastist?
Lol
@RavenCT, my current crop of 5 felines might just kill me if I entirely left Bastism. They know they're gods...
@TaraMarshall Well yes!
I have a huge cross on my left bicep...it's upside down, though...drunken design with drunken tattoo artist...he was like, "let's do this one!" and pointed to the back one of my tapes (tells you how long ago)..."I'LL DO IT FOR FREE!!"...I was sold....and I still love it....great memories...never really thought of it as a religious symbol, though...more a "I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE THE DANZIG BAND SYMBOL ON MY ARM!!"...haha!
That's truly funny!
I have several tattoos, but none religious. No cartoon characters or names either, except our farm name.
Actually the Bible prohibits tattoos. But many Christians don't read that verse and get tats anyway.
It's even funnier when it's a cross tattoo cough cough: Justin Bieber, you fool lol.
