Are you a tattooed christian?

I'm just wondering how many people here consider themselves christian and have a tattoo. Also how you justify Buy Generic pharmacy that tattoo within your religion despite the fact it is forbidden by God in the book of Leviticus 19:28:
"Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD."
Not trying to start a debate on the rights or wrongs of tattoos (because I'm heavily done, can't see anything wrong with it and couldn't give a sh1t if you do, it's your problem not mine) I'm just interested in how you feel about it within your belief structure.

Those of you aren't tattooed christians, this question doesn't concern you so please don't jam my inbox with preaching, that is not what I'm asking for.

And for those of you with crosses or any other christian images please don't simply claim you're okay because its a christian image, the bible says they're all forbidden, but I am interested if your priest/pastor/vicar or whatever you have has told you otherwise. My grandmother refuses to talk to me because I have piercings and I'm heavily tattooed with demons, comic book characters and bizarre quotes but loves my cousin who has three crosses (1 celtic, 1 tribal and 1 realistic, which looks fantastic) and says he is okay because her priest told her tatts were cool as long as they were christian images.

Just because someone will see this question as an insult, I'm not trying to insult anyone and I honestly do not mean to offend anyone (I know I can be a bit crass, crude and downright obnoxious at times) I'm only interested in your opinions and don't want to be innundated with people condemning me for mine.

Thanks for all serious and intelligent answers.
