Phew! What a relief. That board of four ministers appointed to cure disgraced minister Ted Haggard of his homosexuality has been meeting pretty intensively. And it turns out Haggard is now "completely heterosexual."

Rev. Tim Ralph of Larkspur, one of the four, said: ''He is completely heterosexual. That is something he discovered. It was the acting-out situations where things took place. It wasn't a constant thing.''

1. This makes me sick.

[BOSSHOG]

2. On your knees to offer thanks teddy

And all "christians" will pray for you to ensure you don't go being non hetro-sectional all over again.

the utter stench of christian hypocrisy is overwhelming.

[Dr.Phool]

I'd like to know what the treatments were.

Something out of the Spanish Inquisition, no doubt.

[BOSSHOG]

7. I think it would be fair to say

that any such "treatment" administered by a "christian" would not be natural nor commonly accepted as a practice in a free, thinking community. Just what the fuck will these yahoos do when he falls off the reservation again?

[whistle]

3. Now, does that mean he can be a womanizer from now on?

[tanyev]

4. Oh, so it will never happen again, eh?

Alright, we'll see.

6. Oh, sure, riiiiiight...

8. This is just sad.

People should be free to be who they are, not try to fit themselves into somebody else's image. It's always a poor fit.

How many years was Haggard "acting out situations where things took place"? And that's all supposed to be gone in four weeks? What's going to be their excuse when old Ted "acts out" again?

:puke:

9. .

That was fast. But not surprising. He simply "decided" not to be gay anymore. And voilà...

[pnwmom]

10. His poor wife, if she believes that.

[Orsino]

11. Okay, but by the Law of Conservation of Gayness...

...that means it's someone else's turn.

Don't look at me. I've made plans this weekend, people.

[peekaloo]

12. LOL! (derisive laughter, Bruce)They kicked him out of town to "heal" elsewhere.

in the spirit of "caring and forgiveness". :eyes:

btw: tonight's 'Boston Legal' has a case where a Judge is suing a company that promotes pills to "cure" homosexual urges......seems the pills might not be working.

[TlalocW]

13. That was pretty fast

He must have been able to test out of some hours like in college I tested out of Spanish I and II.

Surely he was an advanced heterosexual going into this.

14. I'm sure that gay men everywhere are relieved

Straight women everywhere are trembling.

15. From the same article...

...we also have this tidbit: "As part of his continuing recovery and presumably in the spirit of forgiveness and caring, the group has also recommended he leave Colorado permanently and go into a different line of work."

Yeah, looks like they're really convinced that he's "cured" all right.

16. This probably marks the first time when Larkspur, CO gets mention in the national news

Good for Larkspur! I didn't even know they had a church.
