Either it's wrong or it's ok and if it's wrong, cite the scripture(s) with which you come to that conclusion.
NOW,

I'd have to cite the Leviticus scripture as well as the scriptures in the new testament about being the temple of the Holy Ghost, as well as some in Romans 6 about living unto God.

But ultimately, I would think this falls into the Romans 14 category. It something I wouldn't do, and would discourage others not to do, but I'm not going to judge someone over it or break fellowship over it. I've got to answer to God for my own decision, I'll let everyone who claims to be a Christian stand before God for themselves. Its not my job to judge another mans servant. HOWEVER, if I'm teaching/preaching on it, I'm am teaching against it based on biblical prinicples.
