GENERAL MODNOTE
We have received a notice from Kiara Mongrut who would like it known that she was an underaged minor at the time she got the tattoo and that she did not give her consent to the procedure, and that this article and similar articles have caused some harm to her personal reputation.

If this is indeed true then Ms Mongrut can be assured that she has nothing but our sympathy and compassion. Many members of rationalskepticism.org have suffered abuses as minors inflicted upon them in accord with the beliefs of their parents/guardians and/or in the name of their parents/guardians religion, the repercussions of which have followed them well into adulthood. I am sure I speak for the entire membership when I say that our sincere and earnest hope is that Ms Mongrut can and will find a way to overcome the personal burden this unwarranted action has placed upon her.

However, although we are more than happy to offer Ms Mongrut this right of reply we will not delete this topic nor any of the comments herein unless required to do so by a valid legal instrument appropriate to the jurisdiction of the region in which this website is hosted.
