Porn-Hating Blue Elephant Visits Galveston
Yep, you read that correctly. Sunday morning an inflatable blue elephant visited Bridge Community church in Galveston. The elephant is part of National Porn Sunday campaign which is trying to battle the multibillion dollar Porn industry. All bad puns aside, the 25ft inflatable blue elephant is a symbol of the “elephant in the pew,” said J.R. Mahon, pastor of XXXChurch.com, which spearheads the National Porn Sunday movement. Although their website name seems a bit askew, the group claims that 47 percent of Christian families say porn is a problem in their home, and 40 million people look at Internet porn daily. By addressing the problem in the church, the group is taking a proactive approach by reinforcing family values.
In addition to raising awareness among churches, XXXChurch.com pastors also attend pornography shows (interesting?) and pass out Bibles to participants, in an effort to help actors get out of the business. “We need to turn people’s heads and use big language and outrageous methodology to get public attention,” said Mahon. “We make no excuses or apologies for that.”
After leaving Galveston on Sunday, the Blue Elephant continues the fight against the porn on a world tour.

Emphasis mine.
There's a picture of the elephant on the site. It's quite an elephant.
