    This is always the first point to consider when looking into having a tattoo done.
    And if one is a Christian, one ought to pay heed to the biblical prohibition on being pierced with a needle.
    Granted, it is an Old Testament prohibition which is not repeated in the New Testament. But it is worth considering that the only men in Ancient Israel who underwent any kind of piercing were slaves.
    This said, however, my daughter (who is of age) has a number of colourful tattoos. Her mother and I voiced our disapproval, but she made her own decision.
    At any rate, think hard about Terry’s advice.
    Regards,

    You might want to have a look at this page as well. Pat Fish is good stuff IMHO.
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear
