“leaving_quietly”: “ The biggest reason for prohibition against tattoos seems to be what others might think.”
The reasoning of the WTS against tattoos – as well as, of course, beards – is because of what others think, and the reason why others may think negatively about it is because of the WTS speaking negatively about it due to the fact that others may think negatively about it because of it being negatively spoken of by the WTS because others may think negatively about it because . . . .
What’s that called again? Oh ya, “circular reasoning.” The whole hysteria over beards, tattoos, etc. among JWs is obviously just something invented and concocted by the WTS to force everyone to comply with their paranoid-driven image of pseudo-piety. That’s really all it is. Just a self-promoted mechanism to bolster conformity.
