Tattoo Artist after TSHTF, can I ask a question? Christians?
- I was wondering if anyone had an opinion on whether they thought having the equipment and skills as a tattoo artist would be a practical SHTF barter skill.

- (For Christians ONLY)
I was wondering what other Christians here think of tattoos in general (not just if they would get one) just ifthey think its wrong for others and a sin.

- (For real Tattoo Artists)
How is practicing on tattoo skins?
Is it "real" enough?
And are there different qualities of tatoo skins?
And any other tattoo starter kits they would recommend.


*** BTW I am a very experience traditional and 3D artist

*** I have used a tattoo gun on a person years ago just fuckin around. Didnt know what the hell I was doing though

*** And I am I Christian with no tattoos myself.

Re: Tattoo Artist after TSHTF, can I ask a question? Christians?
I'm not a tattoo artist, but I do have alot of tattoos. For myself personally, I would not trust a tattoo artist who has no tattoos.
Wouldn't it be great to heal the world, with only a song?

I can see that. Though I am talking post SHTF not a business in this current state of the world.

It would be more of a hobby for now.

But it is a great point.

 Quoting: wisdomknight


If so is it because of marking your body permanently?
Would you only be against it only if its a skull, evil symbol etc?

Being a 3d game artist I sometimes struggle wondering if i should be modeling/animating say a monster, demon or an orc character thats required for a game.

Is that any different from say tatooing the same on someone. Or is it their problem?

new testament doesn't say anything about tattoos, so it's not a sin for Christians.

I dont think I would get one, I still want to fulfill the Prophecy of being the Unblemished Heifer, ...lol !

seriously, I do think it would null and void any kind of prophecy since "markings" and more was very symbolic of being a defect in the sacrificial offerings if it wasnt pertaining to the "Mark of God" in the forehead which is symbolic only.

So "No" I dont think any Christian who is studious in the scriptures would get a tattoo.

Re: Tattoo Artist after TSHTF, can I ask a question? Christians?
As a Christian with several tattoos, I would warn against getting tattoos's that would be offending to God. Although I have several tattoo's are "demonic" in appearance, I do not plan to remove them. They remind me of my past and the person that I once was. They also help me look forward to a resurrected body which will be perfect, pure, and free of scars.

Interesting. Tattooing is an amazing art and actually can be used for pain relief [link to turtlesvoice.blogspot.com]

Some think it's a sin and site Leviticus as a source as they eat shellfish.

I think when the shit hits the fan, there will be those who seek the art and the pain relief, perhaps more than they do now.

Well, I guess if theres no prophecy you want to fulfill, I guess you can get a tattoo.

But be forewarned you still run the risk of influence and possesion of whatever those tattoos represent.

Back in the day when a loved one died, folks cut their flesh and added the ash of the dead inside it.

Modern tats are nothing like that.

hi I don't have any tattoos and I have been too scared to get any

my wife has them

and a lot of people at my church have them

before and after becoming Christians

the old testament has a law against them for the Hebrews

a lot of those laws were to preserve health and bloodline

tattoos can affect health and transmit bloodborne diseases

I personally don't really care for them. I've never seen one I would especially want

we thought about designing our own matching tattoos but never did it

at the cowboy museum out in the desert you can take branding irons as a romantic thing and brand each other. never did thst either lol

anyway as far as I know they are no big deal for believers. certainly those obtained before conversion aren't a problem. I personally would question demonic tattoos applied to a believer but hey to each their own

how about a heart or some flowers or maybe just the old school popeye anchors.

someone needs to bring back the popeye anchors

Brandinig!? WOW....I actually always predicted branding (along with scaring) would be bigger in the future.
It seems anything extreme or violent does become more widely popular, sadly.

Great comment!

I'm christian and have no tattoos. We were brought up Seventh Day Adventist...even getting your ears peirced was a no no...it was considered pagan.

I'm no longer in that church and believe a lot of the old testament is done with because of Christ. (actually thats where I am right now, sometimes I wonder if following the old ways is the way to go.)

I don't know why people get Tattoos. Personally I wont mark myself with a unique identification that police or others can use against you.

I think when TSHTF you would want to blend in with the masses. Good luck with a tattoo.

I'm christian BTW.

You don't have to.

But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.
(Acts 15:5)


Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:
