Singer-songwriter and actress Miley Cyrus has sparked a twitter debate over her new tattoo in support of gay marriage rights.

The seventh tattoo located on the ring finger of the Hannah Montana actress shows an equal sign and a photo of it was tweeted with the words “All LOVE is equal”.

The self-professed Christian then received some backlash from a few twitter fans angered with new life-long bold statement.

One angered fan wrote “look up Leviticus, 1 Corinthians. Read both chapters and tell me where God says homosexuality, incest, and polygamy is ok?” Cyrus fired back: “where does it say in the Bible to judge others? Oh right. It doesn’t. GOD is the only judge, honey. GOD is love.”

The 18-year-old has previously spoken out against the unequal treatment facing homosexuals, taking to her twitter when Casey Anthony was acquitted of murdering her three year old daughter Caylee. She typed: “You know the world is skewed when people get away with murdering children, but we cant get gay marriage legalised in the state of California.”

No matter what you may think of the tattoo, it does convey a positive message to her legion of followers, both young and old.
