Q. I know theres bleeping, blurring, and cutting off the signal but is there anymore? What were some cases or shows on tv that were censored?
A. censorship in the US is messed up I saw a show where they blurred the private parts of a guy's tattoo also a few years ago there was a show on MTV where a woman was getting breast surgery while the doctor was in the room they showed everything as he talked about her breasts but when the doctor left the room they blurred her nipples because now we were looking at tits but when the doctor returned everything was shown, How messed up is that?
Why do people say getting tattoos are a sin?
Q. From what I been thought as a kid, the soul is what counts not the body. So what does it really matter? When you die you can't take your body with you. It just becomes an empty vessel that gets taken back into the earth.
A. It's well open to debate (I know many devote Christians who have tattoos relating to religion -such as the Virgin Mary or crosses who argue it is open to interpretation). Although I'm sure there are those who quote in Leviticus 19:28, “Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD.” (NIV). This would seem to indicate that tattoos are a bad thing. It's suppose to be seen as you trying to alter the image of God (since humans are apparently designed in his image).
There are plenty of crazy things in Leviticus and else where in the bible that the same people who call tattoos a sin commit or disregard exist because they'd be viewed as immoral:
1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?
2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?
3. I know that men are allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness - Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.
4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord - Lev.1:9. The problem is, my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath.Exodus 35:2. clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should I ask the police to do it?
6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination - Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination?
7. Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear glasses to see distant. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle- room here?
8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?
9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?
10. My friend's uncle has a farm. He violates Lev.19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair, like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)
Yes, some are these are well open to interpretation, however for the most part, these would be viewed as ridiculous as well as hypocritical if you tried arguing against them but tried condemning tattoos. I agree with you, it's your soul and personality that matters, your body is just a way of emphasising it. I enjoy studying this stuff, so I hope this helped or was intriguing.
