my friends all recently went and got religious tattoos. it was pretty cool.

not for me, but very cool nevertheless. lol I like something rexi (i think) said once on here about tattoos "If I were to get a tattoo it would be: I AM CATHOLIC, IN CASE OF EMERGENCY PLEASE CALL A PRIEST"

:lol:

Sorry, I prematurely posted...put in eek before I realized how it would be construed.
Your tatoo is pretty cool.

I thought about getting "fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum" in small letters behind my left ear.

Those would have to be pretty small letters :D sounds like a good idea for a tattoo

I typed in eek in the place of the message that I accidentally posted while I edited...for real. My first post was sans the images I intended to show...seriously no dis intended, for real.

And having a tattoo would probably keep a whole lot of orders from accepting you, if you ever decided to enter one.

I once saw a photo a breast cancer survivor who had a double mastectomy and had a beautiful tattoo of the Sacred Heart across her chest.

That's the big reason I wouldn't get one; the permanency. Changing your mind is easy, especially with something superficial like that. It would be a regret hanging over you for the rest of your life, getting even worse as it started to look saggy and gross. Removal is very painful, expensive, and very imperfect.

Something tells me these are not things which concern the type of person who gets tattoos :)

I'm open to the idea, but find that there are too many other things I'd rather spend my money on. Also, I lack the physique that makes tattoos look good. I'd probably look like I was trying to look tough.

Well, I've got a Triquetra (celtic symbol for the Holy Trinity on my lower back. I've had it for 3 years and I won't ever regret my decision. I love my tattoo!

All done in black ink.

ooooooohhhhhhhh I like the vatican key one in color but I would never pay that much to put a tattoo on me.

If I ever get one in writing I would have it say that.
