"Just because you're Christian doesn't mean you can't self mutilate or be anorexic."

This is just one of the intriguing observations on this LiveJournal blog post about one woman's visit to her strict Reformed Baptist relatives. Our protagonist sees biblical parallels for self-mutilation and embraces her ana/SI/bisexual identity. Her relatives "think 18th century dresses are immoral."

Pictured above: a less restrictive approach to Christian adornment, one of a series of photos featuring a Christian model with an embedded crucifix piercing.
