Michigan Pastor Has Tattoo Parlor in His Church; Says He Has It to Reach Out to His Parishioners

The Cybercast News Service website reports today (January 9, 2012) that a Michigan pastor has opened a tattoo parlor inside his church.

Rev. Steve Bentley says he is doing everything he can to reach out to the people who have never felt comfortable at a traditional house of worship.

Bentley's church, The Bridge, occupies 3,000 square feet inside a Flint Township shopping center.

Bentley -- who has two tattoos himself -- rejects criticism that a church is the wrong place for a tattoo parlor, calling it a "morally neutral" practice akin to having your ears pierced.
