Strange. The guy is no twink, but he's far from "fat". And "sad" is subjective. @Isabellasastar: you say to pray for both of them and not judge yet you describe the guy as “26, fat and sad”?

The guy is no twink, but he’s far from “fat”. And “sad” is subjective.

He was 24 when Ted Haggard "molested" him. Ted masterbated in front of him. Bad? Yes. But not worth all this stupid news stuff. The guy is 26, fat and sad. Just watch the news clips. He pretty much legally blackmailed the church by showing them a book he had wrote about everything. Everybody just needs to pray for both of them and not judge. Thats for God only.

You couldn't make this shit up. I simply love watching each and every conservative get exposed for what they really are. They never learn. I wish all of this was on live TV so I could watch him sweat and squirm. Yum. Fabulous. You couldn’t make this shit up.

In this case Ted has always been gay, has always known he's gay, and has indeed acted on it. Sorry Ted. Excuses don't exonerate you. To your deluded masses you can spout all sorts of excuses, but us gay people know all about how hiding in the closet causes one to go completely bonkers. Come out Ted. Just f*cking come out already. Haven't you put your family thru enough BS yet? Are you really that nuts? I guess the answer is yes.

It puts both homosexuality and Christianity into question for people, and there are enough doubts about both already. His conflicts are pitiable, but the judgment and intolerance he has received from both his church and the GLBT universe are upsetting. I for one am not delighting in this man’s plight.

Haggard himself? I don't think so - He's apparently making a living at this. Society? No, we have a society or at least very powerful vocal elements of it, that fight Same Sex marriage at every turn, denigrates Gay people and then wonders why they have low self esteem, higher alcoholism/drug use rates, higher teen suicides... etc. The Religious? No, I've already said Ted has "fallen" and he is completely off their radar screen as a disowned sinner. Explain what positive consequences of repeatedly talking about Ted Haggard does.

I do get some good laughs when people are exposed like this. We know Teddy has a freaky side, more power to him. Anyone who thought that there weren't others really didn't think it through: One doesn't "start" your sexual experimentation with whores and cheap drugs ... you build up to it right? :) I know I did. (kidding) This second person to speak up sounds just as sleaxy to me: College tuition wouldn't be enough to compensate me for "non-consensual" sex wtih my spiritual leader, or anyone else. I think they call that rape. Perhaps I am a bit jaded but victims who accept hush money and use the media to further their cause really don't sound like victims to me. As for Teddy, I do feel sorry for him in some sense. I don't wish him ill. I can't say that I wish him well either, all things considered. In my opinion self-hating queers, like Ted, really need to be reached out to by the LGB community as they have a very powerful story to tell that would resonate with a lot of people. Maybe we should embrace these individuals, to our own use and benefit? OK, it was relevant when the story broke the first time. I do get some good laughs when people are exposed like this.

He, just like a lot like him, is a hypocritical bully. With no integrity, honor, or real human compassion. He is pretty evil. How can anyone believe anything this man says. Lies upon lies until he can't tell what's true and what's made up. Besides being closeted and having internalized homophobia, he then used his position, the church and whoever could further his own agend. Be it; power, sex, probably money, etc. And to be against anything LGBT positive. Hypocritical. No integrity. No honor. No use to mankind. He is wasting my air space. I'm just glad he was exposed. Again. Don’t feel bad for him. He, just like a lot like him, is a hypocritical bully. With no integrity, honor, or real human compassion. He is pretty evil.

When all the stuff about Haggard first broke, and people were having serious dialogues about it there appeared to be possibilities some good would come of it. But the religious right does what it always does: disowns sinners, retreats into their narrow thinking patterns and Ted is just trying to make a living by rehashing and/or adding to his story. I "vote" to stop giving this man publicity. Queerty – stories about this man are no longer interesting.
