Ear piercing

[Paleoconservatarian]

Well, the Bible tell us differently.
Matthew 10:29-31
29Are not two sparrows sold for a penny[a]? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father. 30And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

The number of hairs on each of our heads. The location of every single sparrow. God knows these things, in addition to knowing all about all the galaxies in the universe and beyond. It is supposed to blow our minds that the God who made and controls all of that knows all about our hair, and our ears and if we put holes in them or not.

"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to bliz again."

I know the Bible doesn't condemn the piercing in itself, but I decided if it feels wrong I won't get one. I know that I'm not a rebel, but I'm scared that some people might get the idea that people with multiple piercings are rebels...I don't want people to think that, so hmmm I might not get one. The only reason I care what people think is because I want to represent Christ...but if people won't get that kind of idea, then I want to get the piercing. I know they shouldn't judge me by my appearance, but they will anyway. I feel kind of dumb for caring about such a small thing, but I just don't know what to do.

I think that you're being incredibly wise about this.

There is nothing dumb about it!
