    As for the Little Flower wearing earrings, is it not perhaps the case that she wanted others to think she was vain?  This is not uncommon with the saints, and she had a very mature spiritual life at a very young age. 
    Anonymous posting for the most part is very silly and cowardly.  Why is this an anonymous post?

    The first few times I ever saw nose piercings, I thought it was a booger hanging down.

    If you’re so offended, scroll past the anonymous posts, sheesh! Do you like censorship?

    Are you next going to say that it's wrong to eat pork?  This smells of OT-law-literalism to me, big time, pretending that some ritual law of the OT (Book of Leviticus) remains in force, where it's OK to wear earrings as long as the skin isn't pierced.  :facepalm:
    No, I actually lean the other direction and have no problem seeing tasteful nose piercings or tattoos. I don't personally have any of the above, but I don't find them repulsive.
    My issue was with the lack of consistency in many people saying that earrings are fine but other piercings are not. How does that make any logical sense? If we're going to exalt or condemn something, I'm looking for something a little more solid than "it's customary" or "I don't like how that looks".

    I think an earring on each side is fine (1 each not Multiple) but facial piercings are disgusting.

    Ears are on the head not the same as facial piercing.
