Celebrate Pagan Tattoos

Livia Indica, of MagicHills, has a companion blog called NeoPagan Ink. From her new blog:

...I love tattoos! And so do a lot of my fellow NeoPagans. But, for some reason, I've always had a hard time finding pagan-specific tattoo art online. So I started a new project. This blog is a place for NeoPagans of all kinds to show off their ink. Tattoos with pagan-specific themes are welcome as are any kind of tattoos you have on your NeoPagan body. Feel free to also submit images of your piercings, brandings, scarifications or other body mod art. To submit your images, and a little background about your art, please email me at: neopaganink@gmail.com.

I'm happy to report that Livia has posted a pic of my beetle tattoo! Thanx, Livia.

Xtains gone wild

Christian pediatrician denies child service because parents are tattooed

Can there be a bigger jackass than Dr. Gary Merrill? :

...A family is turned away by a local pediatrician, they say because of the way they look...The doctor said he is just following his beliefs, creating a Christian atmosphere for his patients...Tasha Childress said it’s discrimination...Dr. Gary Merrill wouldn’t treat her daughter for an ear infection because Tasha, the mother, has tattoos...

Just one more reason why I'll never will go to Texas.

The pic above is from Sacred Ink. Check them out for a great discussion of tattoos and how they relate to the Xtain bible.
