This kind of stuff never stops happening. What is going on? God save us all from ourselves. Part of me wonders if this is all just a scandal because of upcoming elections in the States. It just seems all to ironic that the president of the most prominent anti-gay organization in the States would get found out a little bit before an election that he’s been having gay relations. Though, at the same time, it wouldn’t surprise me either. He also made a statement saying he never had a “gay relationship” I wonder if ‘sex’ is considered a relationship?
Yea…this is big.
The gay prostitute/drug dealer who is making the allegations admitted that his motivation was political.
He said he couldn’t stand quietly while Haggard gave full support to an anti-gay marriage amendment.
The interim pastor said that it is clear that at least some of the allegations are true.
Hey Nathan,
Thanks for the links. You might want to warn people that the towerload site is a gay blog. I didn’t realize it until I saw the strange ads! :)
Hahah – that is a gay site. The ads are hilarious!
I read it this morning– shocked and deeply saddened. God help us. True or false I hope that the Christian community would forgive and embrace him-the CNN’s of the world will crucify him enough.
Those that make the loudest noise about anything, especially morals, always need to be taken with a good dose of scepticism.
