but they have jesus to forgive them, it is ok to molest little boys, kill innocent people and deny health care to people, as long as you have jesus to forgive you
problem is democrats dont have jesus so even if they are good people they are still going to hell
if you say so...lol its okay to believe just keep on molesting and repenting over and over.
now all of a sudden the democrats are the party of satan

Wow....you are truly an extraordinary individual. I AM impressed. You are ,no doubt, a role model and inspiration to us all. . I feel....humbled ..to be in your presence.
Why can't he just be gay and happy? If he hadn't lied to himself, and everyone else his whole life he probably wouldn't be in this situation right now.
I wonder if HBO is going to try and reconcile the utter hypocrisy of his actions; being gay and patronizing at least one gay hooker (that we know of) on the one hand, and on the other hand Ted's rallying of the New Life Church faithful in COLO in 2006 against a piece of gay right legislation that was on the ballot (it lost). After that scandal broke, a week before the 2006 election, New Life Church went from 14,000 down to 10,000 members, and the church laid off 40+ employees due to the drop in donations. At least 4000 of them had the sense to walk away from the whole mess, as if to say "never again."
I don't really see the point of all the finger pointing at Ted Haggard. Yes, he had a moral failure and it was discovered. I don't see it as surprising, however, that if he has a struggle in the area of homosexuality, that there wouldn't be more than one incident in his past. Didn't he admit that this had been a life-long issue for him? It's tragic when these type of things occur especially among leadership, but I really don't understand why people who have moral failures are necessarily, out of hand, labeled "hypocrites." To my way of thinking a person is a hypocrite, perhaps, if they profess to believe one thing and then don't even attempt to live that way. Just because someone has weaknesses, however, doesn't mean that they aren't attempting to live in a way true to what their faith professes. I'm certainly not suggesting that this type of thing should be overlooked in the church. The church does need to exercise biblical church discipline and hopefully, restoration to these people if possible. I just don't see the big revelation here, though.
