Ted Haggard goes overboard to convince people of his heterosexuality by recreating image of gay bathhouse featuring his own half naked children. Wait, what?

Hey!  I think I have finally found a family even more dysfunctional than the Palins!

The above is from an article coming out in February from GQ magazine.  But that is not all of the "homophobic minister kicked out of his church for having gay sex with male prostitute only to deny it later and try to start a new church" craziness coming our way.

The honorable Reverend Mr. Haggard also has a little film called "Scandalous" playing on cable right now. (No it is not a gay porno movie!  Thank God.) Which is about Haggards attempts to convince the world that he absolutely did not have hot sweaty sex with that gay prostitute, and that the whole thing was a simple misunderstanding that he hopes like hell the Christian community is stupid enough to will believe.



"Will gays be welcome in your church?"

"Oh absolutely! The more the merrier!  As a matter of fact I think the place should be wall to wall gay men, all pressed up together with their hot writhing bodies rubbing against each other as they praise the Lord until they reach a climax of ...OW OW honey why are you squeezing my hand so tightly?"

You know Ted Haggard is exhibit "A" in illustrating just how brainwashed these poor people are by the Christian church. Even after their sexuality has been revealed for all of the world to see, they are still desperate to bottle it back up and portray themselves as the complete opposite of what their biology and heart are telling them is true about themselves.

I feel very badly for anybody who is so self loathing that they cannot be open about who they really are.

And really, how long do we think Ted can keep it padlocked in his closet this time? And what happens to his wife, his kids, and himself, when he loses the battle and finally gives into his desires?

It would be so much simpler if people in the church could be loved and accepted for who they truly are, and not for pretending to be what the church finds acceptable. I wonder if there was ever a prophet connected to that religion who preached tolerance, love, and acceptance?  If there were perhaps they might consider following the teachings of that guy.

Just a thought.

Disgraced evangelical minister Ted Haggard: “I believe we are also nearing the end of the ‘Religious Right’"

I do not believe I have EVER hoped that Ted Haggard was right about anything before, but oh well I guess there has to be a first time for everything!

From the Colorado Springs Gazette:

Haggard also waxes prophetic in his tweets:

“I believe we are at the end of what church historians will, in the future, call the Billy Graham era.”

“I believe we are also nearing the end of the ‘Religious Right’ representing Evangelicalism.”

“My prayer is that over the next 10 years, there will be a Love Reformation and the Gospel will retake the Bible-believing church.”

I cannot believe I am saying this but, "Amen brother!"

I have been of the opinion recently that the selection of Sarah Palin as the evangelically supported choice for VP, hurt the religious right wing almost as much as it hurt John McCain.  Here they had picked this woman based on extremely shallow criteria and had not taken the time to vet her or to see just who she really was.

When she demonstrated herslef to be ignorant, racist, and incredibly thin skinned, that reflected poorly on the Evangelicals as well.  Just like Alaskans who were extremely embarrassed to be represented by Caribou Barbie, I kind of believe there were many on the religious right who felt the exact same way.  In fact that might have been why one of Sarah's most aggressive supporters, James Dobson, found himself kicked out of the program that he both founded and led for over thirty years

Personally I would love to see a "Love Reformation" in the evangelical churches. I really think the world would be a much better place if the Christian church tried harder to reflect the teachings of Jesus Christ and worried less about what people did in the privacy of their bedrooms or with their own bodies.

Teddy Haggard has had all of the gay demons exorcised from his body and now he only likes (fe)males.

The evangelist forced out of his job after being caught up in a sex scandal involving a male prostitute has left a "spiritual restoration program" and no longer has any ties to the megachurch he founded, the congregation's new pastor said Sunday.

Under a severance deal that Ted Haggard reached with the church in 2006, he agreed to leave Colorado Springs and not talk about the scandal publicly. The deal expired at the end of 2007. New pastor Brady Boyd said Haggard was now free to live where he wanted and has returned to Colorado Springs.

"They have moved back and they live in the original house that they lived in for many years," Boyd said of Haggard and his wife, Gayle.

Haggard answered the telephone at his Colorado Springs telephone number on Sunday and confirmed he was in the city but said he couldn't talk to reporters.

So now Mr. Haggard re-enters society with the confidence that the next time he is confronted with a sizzling hot example of buffed man flesh that the only thing it will stiffen is his resolve that he only wants to get jiggy with the soft, squishy, lavender scented flesh of the middle aged Mrs. Haggard.

Oh yeah this should work out well.

I give Ted about six months before he is cruising gay bars looking for someone to make him their bitch. Maybe nine months, but that is about it. And I certainly hope it makes it into the papers. Because I am going to LAUGH!
