That Isn't God Smiling Down On You In Times Square

While wandering around the theater district during my recent New York City trip, I remember seeing the Times Square Church and wondering how well a church would do in that neighborhood. Apparently, a local advertising firm wants to place some shall we say... unusual ...advertising atop their building:
NEW YORK — In response to a minister's complaint, a judge on Monday temporarily barred bare buttocks billboards that a bidet company had planned to put up in Broadway's theater district on a building that houses a church.

State Supreme Court Justice Marcy Friedman ordered the temporary restraining order against raising the billboards at the request of the Rev. Neil Rhodes, pastor of the interdenominational Times Square Church.

The billboard ads, featuring naked buttocks with smiley faces, were to promote the Washlet, a bidet-toilet seat that uses warm water and air. They were to go up for 30 days beginning July 1 on two sides of the building at 51st Street and Broadway that houses the Times Square Church, which claims 8,000 members, and its Bible school and day care center.

I see that butt...is there another?
