I’m looking for some of the best writings from the doctors of the Church that were written in Latin. I plan on including pictures of pillars, possibly some other figures as well.

…any suggestions on favorite pieces of work from doctors of the Church written in Latin?
 
Haha, what about: Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus?
At least It’s controversial 😛
 
My personal advice would be to keep it in your heart and skip the tattoo. Just my 2 cents.
 
Ubi caritas et amor Deus Ibi est
👍 I know caritas -that’s charity… But I want an entire leg full, knee to foot, with pillars separating different parts from different authors. Or maybe just a full sleeve on my arm. Not sure yet.

…basically just a whole lot of Latin Catholic text. 😉

I agree, but you cannot possibly be in the midwest with that opinion. Tats are as much a part of life as factories, corn, smoking, cracker barrels, and semi trucks.

They’re really popular here in southern CA too. Rather than the typical biker / prison style tattoos I see though, I want to display my own ‘representation’

…the CC is me.

…so rather than displaying a Hells Angels type membership, I’m just choose to show my Catholic Church affiliation. 👍
Personally I detest them. But if one already had tats, I would support the idea to represent your faith in your advertisements. Saw a tweetie bird tat the other day and shook my head. I did some research on trademark infringement on tats and apparently there is no real deciding case on it. I shocks me that “artists” can make money using a trademarked image onto a “canvas”. Someday someone will tat the NFL logo and that issue will be cleared up.😉

Hahaha. Yeah, the NFL doesn’t take anything lightly.
 
Haha, I see your location. :D. I lived in Hammond in my youth. Lever bros. smells. 😛
Where I am it smells like the corn syrup factory all the time. My wife is pregnant with our fifth and throws up constantly. There is no way it is good for you! (for those who have not had the pleasure, it smells like day old wet french fries mixed with melted plastic) You can taste it, you can see the film on your car… blech !! I miss living out west…

If everyone in Southern CA was jumping off a bridge… well, whatever floats your boat.

IMHO, we should be “in the world, and not of the world”. If your confessor/spiritual director gives you the green light to be inked up, then who am I to judge? I hope you have a spiritual director.

Just imagine how it would look from an artistic point of view… And if it were Augustine, or Aquinas then the meanings would be purely good.

Basically, Im just a Catholic extremist. A radical, if you will. I can’t deny the truth. 🤷

Have you considered a mural of Our Lady of Guadalupe on the back window of your car?😉
