Question 27
Incorrect
Incorrect
Some social scientic research on body art has shown that it
enhances emotional health (but there is other research linking it
with negative outcomes). Modern Bible translations mention
tattoos only in Leviticus 19:28, where it seems like the practice is
condemned. A closer reading of the context, however, would seem
to suggest that scarication, rather than the modern practice of
tattooing, is the problem. Still, Christians are divided on the issue.
According to the faithful reading perspective,
we hold the theological position, because it comes from Scripture.
we hold the psychological position tentatively, because the
evidence is stronger.
we make an arbitrary choice, since there are different levels of
explanation.
we hold a position tentatively while we re-evaluate each discipline.
