  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

My name's Stephanie, but I go by Shteffi online and elsewhere more often than not. I'm 16 *sings* going on 17 *stops singing*, and I came up this forum a few days ago. Yeah... umm... not much more to say. Oh, here's something: I found this forum 'cause I was looking for info on what Christians think about piercings. There. That'll do it for now.

Hi Shteffi

Welcome....I am a Christian and though I like the look of some piercings, I don't have any personally, but I think that the bible says something about it. I know it mentions tattoos and I think at the same time covers the piercings subject. I will go research now and get back to you when I find it right outtta the word!

I just typed up a whole answer to this, then clicked the "post quick reply" button, but something happened and it didn't post, so here I go again:

First thing I learned was that piercings are considered a sin necessarily. I knew this all along, but I guess I just needed to prove to myself that I was right. I think it's the motivation behind the piercing that makes it essentially "good" or "bad."

Second, I learned that my navel ring was in fact not infected; it's supposed to do what it's doing.

I like these forums... I'd checked out other Christian forums, but none were so open as to even think about discussing piercings and other topics such as that.
