An I-15 pornography billboard has created a stir with LDS Church members because it specifically references LDS Church bishops. The billboard advertises a free consultation for those with pornography addiction problems.
The billboard reads the treatment is for, “Men, women, husbands, wives, Bishops!”
The fact that the billboard specifically mentions bishops has angered people who feel it may be targeting bishops and members of the LDS church.
Dr. Ken Schwab who is LDS, created the billboard and was shocked that people found the billboard offensive. He said his primary goal is to help those who are addicted to pornography, and perhaps they should’ve used the word clergy instead of bishop. He apologizes to anyone offended by the billboard and made inquires to see if the billboard can be changed.
