I have noticed that a woman I work with (I believe she is of Muslim faith) (she told me once but people are people and I didn't think anything of it) anyway she is allowed to wear a nose piercing at work and I had to remove mine when I started here what religious beliefs would allow facial piercings such as this?

Maybe I didn't word my question right. I don't necessarily care that I can't wear my piercing I guess I shouldn't have mentioned that I was just using it to say that the bank I work for doesn't allow facial piercings. I just wondered if this particular item had religious significance .

I am Christian, but have absolutely no opinion on piercings, though I do not desire any.

if she is allowed the piercing...YOU should be allowed one too. Get in touch with Human Rights.

Body piercing saved me the moment they nailed Jesus to the cross. God will accept you however you are. I will accept you however you are.
Love and Peace

i have my lip pierced and tattoos and i cannot tell you how many times fundamentalist christians have berated me and told me i was going to hell because in the bible it says that you shouldnt alter your body in any fashion. i looked it up with my pastor one day and sure enough, its in there, but my pastor assured me that i wouldnt burn for my sins as long as i repented.

the problem is not so much with her as the company you work for that lives in fear.
