This whole book Leviticus is warning against participating in the Canaanites religious ceremonies. The Canaanites used Tattoos and cuttings as a form of worship. If you get a tattoo in this context then yes it's wrong. As with other warnings in this book of the Bible. You need to take the whole thing into context not pick out specific verses and say this is the absolute truth when in fact that is.

Don't forget that Leviticus is in the OT. Isn't the NT supposed to be the period of Grace where the old laws were rendered meaningless? As to what the bible say, no where does it mention tattoos in the orginal language.
