Tattoos in Hawai'i
by 5thGeneration inthe thread on hawaii today made me think of a question i've always had.. i've spent a lot of time in hawaii and i've always wondered how the cong deals with kids and tattoos.
it's such a part of their culture i just don't see how they can frown on it that much.. anyone know?.

Music preferences and books
by XPeterX ini have recenly had a conversation with some elders and they told me that i shouldn't listen to music that's heavy,meaning distorder guitar riffs,breakdowns brutal vocals even if the lyrics are positive.secondly they say that we shouldn't read books that mention anything related to "spiritualism" but all of the jws study odyssey,history,ancient greek language at school and all of these subjects refer to the pantheon,heathen stuff etc.my question is:how to can someone abstain from reading these things if he is taught them at school while the elders are informed about it?how music can harm anyone if the lyrics are ok even if the music is fast or heavy or both?.
