Why Is Tattoo Classified As Sin But Tribal Marks Aren't??? by pweetixandy: 11:56pm On Mar 27, 2015
I was thinking about how crazy religious can be and how biased humans can really be.


I don't know quotes from the bible or koran that I could use to back up my standing.





Tattoos are man made,so are tribal marks





tattoos are indelible, so are tribal marks (they could be removed through laser surgery tho)



Even our local,non permanent tattoo; laali isn't frowned upon by christians and moslems.


So my question is,why do christians and moslems describe the modern day tattoo as "sin" but tribal marks are considered okay

The tribal mark was used in time of old for identification and differentiating people during war.

Tattoos re for fashion and what the bible said about tattoos

"Do not grave and an image on ur body either on earth on in the heavens or of dead or living creatures cos ur body is the body of the holy spirit. "

Most tattooed individual dnt just know d significance of what dey re wearing.

But what if I get a tattoo that read "I love jesus",would that be a sin.


But tribal marks are also engraved on the body

I can't specifically tell u d bible verse, but I think it's in d book of detrounomy wen Moses was spelling out all rules God gave out to his people.

And one thing about tribal mark of old and the bible is that u re been judged with things u know. They did it out of cultural influence not to alter dia being

Both tribal mark and tatoo are sin. Difference is that tatoo is done by the person, so the sin is accounted unto him whilst majority, if not all tribal marks are given at birth by parents, without consent or approval of the person. It is wrtiten, a child shalt not suffer for the sin of his father, therefore, it won't be accounted unto him. At rapture, tribal marks of saints would be erased. GOD bless His saints

Tribal marks and Tatoo's are both sin b4 God." You shall not make any cuts on your body for the dead or tattoo yourselves: I am the LORD."

The people of old were ignorant and had no access to the word of God, so they had Tribal marks for sake of identification, beauty, etc which is a negation to Gods word. Remember wat happened to Isreal when king David on his own got up and decided to number/head cound the people of Isreal just like that, God punished them all .... My point on Tribal mark/Tatoo is that, we shldnt disobey God for sake of identity, beauty etc
