Evidently you have not visit a “feel good” non-denominational church lately. Almost everyone between the ages of 18-40 have multiple tats and proudly display them with their f’ed haircuts, sideways worn ball caps (that some even wear in church, WTF?), and occasional piercings (outside of regular girls ear piercings).
It seems that no “yute” minister can be deemed cool and outreach to the youngsters without marking themselves up.
Because persons with tattoos are prejudiced against those who do not have them. Something they scarcely are willing to admit.
