I have a story about BoM class today, you're going to cry for my sanity when you read it. My teacher was talking about resurrected beings and how their mortal deformities (scars, etc.) will disappear. BUT - those permanent "injuries" were self-inflicted, such as tattoos and piercing holes (other than the "modest pair for ladies"), those will REMAIN FOREVER!
Basically, according to the Morons, God could care less that women pierce two holes in their lower earlobes - but he will allow an eternal reminder if you make the damning mistake of slipping a needle in halfway up the ear. Or anywhere else, of course. I guess those poor African tribes in which piercings are culteral are really in deep s***, huh? What a load of camel crap!

When we see God will he be wearing his temple robes etc? Will he look at me and ask for the signs and tokens? Will he confront me with my tithing reciepts?
Will he be nit-picky as you say?
I wonder!! :(

There is nothing fills me with a burning desire to pay the high price to gain admission to the Celestial DoG, like the knowledge that it will be run by an anal-retentive clerical type, or even someone who likes to keep company with, and is reliant upon the book-keeping of aforesaid.
Or people who aspire to spending Eternity running QA on body-piercing. Get a life!
I am mindful of the old Peter Cook and Dudley Moore (sorry for the Yanks, a classic English comedy team) comedy skit, where they are angels, sitting around on a fluffy cloud enquiring about each others day. They both describe endless singing of God's praise and other scinterlating Heavenly activites, and then reach the conclusion that they probably should have gone to the other place. There was no way it could have possibly been more boring or painful!
I guess that would make heaven like an endless sacrament meeting or Temple visit. Gets the motor running, every time!

And don't you just WANT to be the piercing inspection angel? "Okay, it says here that you've had some extensive piercing. I need to check.
[Robe falls to the floor]
"Oh my GAWD! How do they DO that?!" And then, after composure is gained and the robe is placed back on, "You realize that all the little posts and rings will have to be removed, and that the holes will be there forever, right?"
Yeah, that's definately the job for me... :D Better catch up on my tithing...

God is more focused on what your heart looks like, not how many holes are in your head. It is completely ridiculous that God would allow one hole in the ears, but not two or three or even more. You think God has time to worry about that. I think he has bigger issues to fry! The whole concept makes me want to go out and pierce my ears multiple times and also other parts of me!
