Some of the more fundamental Christian sects frown heavily upon piercings and tattoos. Others, such as the Methodists and their ilk, are likely to be more tolerant.

I was taught that God made your body the way he wanted it, if he wanted a hole in your nose he would've put it there himself.

Depending on your reason it can be justified. I have a septum piercing and 00 ear guages. I believe that these can help me witness to non-christians breaking the belief that you must be in a certain dress code to attend church or call yourself a christian.

There is nothing that says it's wrong to get your nose pierced, but a lot of the older devout Christians look down on things like tattoos and piercings.

The Bible says the body is a Temple of the Holy Spirit. So in my opinion it depends on what you believe. I believe it is ok as long as you do not go overboard like piercings everywhere. Try asking some friends or your Pastor?
