Rev. Haggard should find him a small place to rent as close as possible to the huge mega church that God help him to build from nothing and run his former mega church out of business.

What a joke. I can't wait to read what the prostitute guy has to say about this. You can't change a person's sexual orientation, gay, straight, bi, whatever.

I give it 12 months until we hear he's been caught in the toilets of his local park, with his jeans at his knees, poppers up his pointy, Republican nose, and a 'youth' from the local Sunday school bashing his bishop...'Cured from being gay' ha...hahaha...hahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha...LaughMyArseOff!!!
C'mon Ted, get the gimp outfit back out the cupboard-you KNOW you want to.

Hey, Ted-

Marvelous to hear of your transformation from gay man to straight person!! Jim and Tammy Fay would be astounded to hear that you have gone back to the Lord. Kinda funny that you were lured by that Satanic beast into back alley (no pun intended!!) transactions, but 'de Debil be everywhere', as you well know. Perhaps you and J. Swaggert can convince some TVs into sharing your motel room and really have a ball!!

Human nature is what it is, my friend. You cannot make a priest a eunuch and still leave him 'his equipment' (as we have seen to our dismay in the recent past). If you are gay, admit it and transform your life into accepting these folks as part of the milieu. There are only two (well . . . maybe three--'bi') orientations and you happen to be on the 'wrong side' right now. Oh, well . . . perhaps the world will eventually accept that unions of loving people can be either/or. But flirtations in a 'cash-for-sex' monologue probably will not fly whatever the situation.

Poor Ted--and do tell . . . how were you able to 'perform' with that nasty meth in yo' schnooz?? Can you say Viagra??

Luv- Poopsy (with the beard)

The god delusion continues. After all, the only place you will find god is in your head, not on the arse end of a male sex worker.

Sad to say, there will be many people who will believe him and follow him like stupid sheep, and the next thing you know he will be building another big church. Beware of those people that build tourist attractions like the Crystal Cathedral also. Do we need these things spurred by giant egos to worship?????

I tend to find all christian men really gay, but the women tend to be kinky freaks. But what do you expect when you have a half naked man as your lord and savior?

Good Afternoon:

No expletives, hmmmm.

I'm just on detached duty(okay, I really got suspended) from Jesus General, for unauthorized use of the Command Vehicle.

Has anyone asked the 'Board' if they will be notifying whatever town Ted and Gayle are relocating to? It seems only fair that any gay meth dealing prostitutes should be warned that a reheterosexualed preacher is moving into town. Nobody wants to see a story about some poor hustler getting worked over by Ted.

I find Mr. Ted to be really gross and not because he is supposedly Gay. I have more respect for Gays than to lump him with them. There is just something really creepy about him - can't seem to put my finger on it????

Aside from the glaring problem that other posters point out, let's review a little about human sexuality as supported by as good research as we can find.

* Human sexuality does not involve separate categories-- ie, you are THIS or THAT or ANOTHER.

* Human sexuality IS a spectrum! So guess what, if the Rev dude is a heterosexual male with homosexual tendencies, he's more bisexual than anything else. It does not appear that he ever was a homosexual with heterosexual tendencies, or an 'equal-opportunity' complete bi-sexual. At least from the press accounts, but it is interesting that no other lover who is male has surfaced.

Why does no one ever say 'bi-sexual' in these cases? Look at Anne Hesch-- *obviously* bi-sexual, though the term tends not to appear in the mainstream press.

IMO!

I have to agree about him maybe being bisexual. I'd almost feel better about him if he were actually Gay - something that can't be helped. I'm not sure they have discovered that about people being bisexual. It seems like that is a choice to swing both ways, and I have to agree with the one who said he was a creep - just look at him - double gross. He almost sounds like a regular Jim Jones the way people have followed him. Where are the skeptics of the world when these people are gathering their flock?????

As a gay man, I wonder if it bothers him to know that all of the rest of know how full of it he is. Of course, Christians aren't supposed to judge. Good thing I'm not a Christian. The bigger picture, at least for me, is that no one seems to care to examine the larger issue. Sexual repression in our society forces people into situations like this because homosexuality is viewed as wrong. It's kind of like the way I felt bad for all of those men caught in the sting on Dateline last year. Not because they were chasing children, but because if our society were truly accepting of GLBT people, more people could live healthier lives that they deserve. I hope I'm making sense.

So now he and his wife want to be psychologists???? What will he do next to dupe people and relieve them of their money??? He needs to spend his time trying to redeem himself by doing something good like helping in New Orleans or working with homeless and less fortunate people - quit thinking he is the center of the Universe. He is a creep!!

Gay is a mental ilness.Usualy caused by childhood experiences. Now days Right is Wrong and Wrong is Right.

Homosexuals are born that way just like someone is born to be short, tall, etc.
It isn't caused by childhood experiences - get with it!!

It is my policy not to trust any religeous leaders that take on designer labels such as 'Born Again' or 'Evangelical'. Either you are Christian or you are not & God does not require you to make up a label.

1.) Back before activists made homosexuality into a lifestyle, it was a recognized mental disease even in the secular medical community and people could be cured of it.

2.) I wish this man the best and pray that God grants him the support structure necessary to *maintain* his recovery.

3.) I especially bless his wife for having the strength it takes to stand by an addict (and this man was addicted to perversity) and help him get out from under the sickness that was enslaving him.
