Note: I’ve already had a question about this, so I thought I would clarify. I am not at all equating having tattoos with being gay. The two things are obviously not the same–I stated that I thought the opinions referenced about tattoos were absurd. I also think the particular way of reacting to gay folks is absurd, but there are more scripturally valid concerns (in my opinion) about sexuality. The issue at hand was not so much what people were reacting to as much as the pharisaical way in which they were reacting.
