Praise the Lord! Ted Haggard is now "completely heterosexual"!

DENVER - One of four ministers who oversaw three weeks of intensive counseling for the Rev. Ted Haggard said the disgraced minister emerged convinced that he is "completely heterosexual."

Haggard also said his sexual contact with men was limited to the former male prostitute who came forward with sexual allegations, the Rev. Tim Ralph of Larkspur told The Denver Post for a story in Tuesday's edition.

"He is completely heterosexual," Ralph said. "That is something he discovered. It was the acting-out situations where things took place. It wasn't a constant thing."

Ralph said the board spoke with people close to Haggard while investigating his claim that his only extramarital sexual contact happened with Mike Jones. The board found no evidence to the contrary.

20. Heh.
Indeed. How could this faithful Christian wife




NOT embrace and forgive this prime example of Christian morality?

Haggard also said his sexual contact with men was limited to only those who had come forward publicly.

22. Even more hilarity!
Haggard said in an e-mail Sunday, his first communication in three months to church members, that he and his wife, Gayle, plan to pursue master's degrees in psychology. The e-mail said the family hasn't decided where to move but that they were considering Missouri and Iowa.

Another oversight board member, the Rev. Mike Ware of Westminster, said the group recommended the move out of town and the Haggards agreed.

"This is a good place for Ted," Ware said. "It's hard to heal in Colorado Springs right now. It's like an open wound. He needs to get somewhere he can get the wound healed."

It was also the oversight board that strongly urged Haggard to go into secular work.


Translated from Fundie to English:

"Get as far from us as possible, you're hurting the collection plates bigtime.

Oh, and you're a crappy minister too."

27. Who needs FOX television sitcoms? Haggard's lot is far more fun to watch!
:rofl:

Who cares if he's straight, gay, bi, or fucks toaster ovens. The fact is, he was high and haughty about morality and here he is cheatin' on his family. He's a pig and I don't give a rat's if he prefers indoor or outdoor plumbing. He still ended up flushing himself.
