I had to go through and read the whole thread complete. During the day, I was reading from work so I wasn't paying complete attention and I missed quite a bit.
So in regards to the permanent factor. I'm glad a lot of you reminded me how permanent this is and why I really need to take time to think about it.
In regards to what the bible says: I didn't really want to go there but since a few of you guys did, i am too. I have really wondered how much of the bible applies to women. MAN was made in the image of God and the Sons of God. As far I can interpret, there is no such thing as a female angel because the angels are SPECIFICALLY SONS of God.
So that being said a woman is of the dust of earth only and we were made in the image of the MAN of who we directly came from his side.
Also, if you read a lot of the proverbs it mentions many times, as lesson to you SON....
That really leaves us females out in the cold. I have even wondered if I myself am going to heaven because it's for men only, the SONS OF GOD and him made in their image. Women are usually the property of men, So that makes me chop suey at the pearly gates, which I really think I could be thrown out on my *** along with every other woman.
I have had a lot of time to think about this and odds are you guys never thought about it from where I'm sitting in the room. So God is really talking to you not me when beards and all that come up. Which may be why this discussion is more heated with gender involved. If a young man wanted a duster tattoo, would it be as big of objection??? There's something in that.
In regards to being passionate and regretting a tattoo. I am not saying I am getting a tattoo but if I did, I won't regret the duster or anything mopar related. I took an automotive class by random chance because it was suggested simply because I was having trouble making my school schedule. All the classes I wanted were taken and the automotive was the right credit hours and right time of day to work perfect. Even still when it was suggested, I thought the idea was freaking nuts. My reaction was pretty much:
Absolutely crazy!!! I am 4'7" 80- lbs. And I'm going to work on cars!!!...... you've gone completely mad with that crap!!!!
Then I completed the class because it was pretty much my only option..... and then i willingly completed the whole program, I became hungry for automotive and i wanted to learn it all. I wanted to rebuild engines and paint the whole car while I was there. I found something that made sense to me and I could actually do it and I wasn't bored with it even now. So for automotive to change my whole life, i will NEVER regret any of it, including my favorite car, the duster.
Interesting reactions and I have no hard feelings towards any replies no matter how extreme or in the middle.
Thanks
