Theme:
My mom told us, “It’s wrong to get a tattoo. It says so in the Bible.” So, I never did. That’s just one of the 613 laws in the Torah. At least I have kept one. Some have counted more than 1,000 rules in the New Testament. Which ones should we follow? Who decides? If the commands come from God, shouldn’t they all be obeyed? Isn’t that how we determine right and wrong? Does it matter when and why the rules were given in the first place—their historical context? Is it up to each person to decide? Religious people are often criticized for having too many rules and judging others by them. Which rules do you follow?
