Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (commonly called "Mormons") follow what the Apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 which says "Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are."

Since Church members respect their bodies as a creation and temple of God, they dress modestly and avoid tattoos and piercings. If women desire to have their ears pierced they are advised to have only one piercing in each ear and stick to wearing 'modest' earrings. Not all members follow this council, and that is their choice, but for the most part church members frown upon tattoos and piercings.
