I have been bitten by the piercing bug!
Lately I have found myself spending all day looking at a piercing website. www.bmezine.com A few months ago I had my nape pierced (back of neck) then two weeks later, I couldnt help myself but got both of my nostrils pierced. Now I find myself constantly looking at different piercings and wondering what I should get done next.
After spending so many hours on this web site, I began to uncover a more sickly side to piercings. I thought to myself that piercing was harmless and that it is just a form of expressing ones self, but after reading many peoples different experiences, I found that a lot of people find it very "spiritual". I began questioning myself. Was what I had done, and planned on doing, sinful? What does God think about it all? Did he aprove, or was I being looked down upon with a disapproving smile?
Looking at, and reading, so many sickening stories, and seeing lots of gross pictures, and how seriously some people took this. Was I being too wishy washy? I have aways been so firm in my beliefs, and I was not liking how this was challenging me! (still not)
So I am still stuck in my dilemma! Are piercings sinful - and dont quote me with "do not pierce your bodies" (sorry dont have Bible right here, and cant see exactly what it is) I want honest opinions from people. Not what you think in your head, but how you feel about it in your heart?
I am not taking out my piercings, I am simply trying to decide whether I get more, or if I try go cold turkey on my piercing frenzy.

hi Bek, no i don't think that piercings are sinful in themselves, often the people who do them are deeply involved in the occult thou and i'm not sure how i feel about someone who sings praise to satan, putting needles into my body. i recently got a very high snug curved bar in the cartilage above my tragus. i chose that spot because i wanted something a little different but in a spot where scarring will be invisable should i change my mind down the track. you talked about self expression as your reason for piercings, i guess it's a matter of working out what you're expressing. as for God's viewpoint, i imagine it's the same as everything else, is this the best way to be a good steward with the money He gives you? if you're trying to reach out to a particular sector of society, then the answer may be yes. but if you are as challenged and concerned as you appear to be, maybe give it a liitle more thought, you need to be at peace with the decision you make. God bless, loved reading your blog, karyn
thanks! its so true what youve said. i am at peace, i guess i got freaked when i saw the extent that some people go to when they get their piercings, and i was a bit shook up. i am at peace with my decisions and i NEVER regret anything i do, everything is a learning curb i say! (p.s. i have been toying with a getting a tragus, but i have little ears, so i dont think i can pull it off :) )
