Tattoos stay on the body in the Resurrection

Post by _ZelphtheGreat »

Yep, on Mormon Chat I asked about why Tattoos were bad. "Our tattoos will be on our bodies after we die and are resurrected."

So, I asked why tattoos are bad but breast enhancement and implants are OK?

"Plastic surgery isn't all about breast implants".

"You are welcome to write to the Brethren of the Church about it".

-----------------------

So, what would The Brethren have to say about tattoos compared to boob jobs?

Oh and the Polynesian members are allowed to have tats since their society has been doing them for centuries.

So ink implanted under the skin will be resurrected with the body. Which means that breast implants will probably resurrect too. Along with pacemakers, corneal implants. heart valves, screws and metal plates. What nonsense. These child missionaries are passing along the dubious wisdom of their uninspired seminary teachers and parents.

ETA: anybody who got a vasectomy or their tubes tied or clipped may have trouble breeding to fill their celestial worlds! What a bugger.

ETA: :question: Bugger isn't a swear word!

No difference.
- Whenever a poet or preacher, chief or wizard spouts gibberish, the human race spends centuries deciphering the message. - Umberto Eco
- To assert that the earth revolves around the sun is as erroneous as to claim that Jesus was not born of a virgin. - Cardinal Bellarmine at the trial of Galilei
