Just three years after getting caught enjoying the company of a male prostitute, preacher Ted Haggard is back and better than ever! Ccookies, pies, and brownies" (and Bibles) awaited guests at the recovering homosexual's much-anticipated prayer meeting at his home last night. And wouldn't you know it, people showed up!
Reporters weren't allowed inside (Haggard addressed them before the Jesusfest got under way), but some 50-plus cars lined the streets. Noting "people love a good comeback story," Haggard said that "for the people who come tonight, that means they believe in the resurrection in me. Because I died. I was buried."
Like Jesus. Only that guy nailed boards, not male hookers.

Poor Ted Haggard, if only he realized Jesus loves him the way he is. It's sad when people in the ministry believe the hype. Makes me wonder if he's only doing it because it's what his followers expect.
He needs to do his wife a favor and come out so that she can find a heterosexual husband and be happy.
In that picture all he needs is a tamborine and a feather Boa.
I would do Haggard despite his infamy…hmm, maybe because of it..and you know, if he saw me…he's wanna do me too! I'm hotter than Jesus could ever be!
How do you keep an asshole in suspense?
So he's into bears now, judging by the picture.
What kind of liberal goes and starts his own church in his own house without any authority overseeing the worship?
Yeah, I'd like to see who showed up for his new thang, and how much crack they brought with them.
And is he a "liberal" now?
I'm pretty sure Haggard got alot of married men numbers after the meeting. And new hook ups for meth.
What did he do wrong anyway! So he had some sex and meth. Big fucking deal. I just hope he preaches against persecution, and tells his flock that hatred is the takeaway of how he was wrongly treated, not "redemption" just for going a a few benders. He should preach that American closet cases need more sex an meth, not less. Stand up for yourself. Are you a man or a mouse.
MY FRIENDS, SEX AND METH ARE NOT THE EVILS I HAD TO FACE DOWN, IT WAS SATANIC HATRED FROM MY OWN FLOCK. SATAN FEEDS ON HATRED! SATAN FEEDS ON DISCRIMINATION! SATAN FEEDS ON TAKING PLEASURE FROM THE SUFFERING OF OTHERS! BUT LIKE CHRIST, I AM REBORN. THEY TRIED TO NAIL ME, BUT WITH EVERY POUNDING I GET STRONGER. NOW THAT I RECOGNIZE MY GOD-GIVEN SEXUALITY I LIVE IN THE LOVE OF ANOTHER MAN! GLORY BE TO GOD!
I actually hope he succeeds, people should be able to move on and do well for themselves even after big mistakes.
I just hope he doesn't spew more of the same old hate. I hope there he has a different tone and carries a different, more inclusive, less self-hating, message.
LoL, I have my doubts, but let's hope. :)
Teddy's sporting wood
They scooch around on cheesy carpet and shock each other
I misread the headline as "three days" and thought "oh great, again?!"
I had some witty comments in store but it really says three years and they no longer apply.
I guess we just have to accept that fact that God made him straight again! [/sarcasm]
No. 8, Brian, NJ:
What did he do wrong anyway!
Brian, like you, I could care less how much meth he shot up his nose or how many dicks he took up his ass. That is between him and HIS god.
What he did wrong, was to misuse his bully pulpit as a place from which to spew self-righteous hatred and bigotry and advance the cause of discrimination and religious sanctions against the LGBT community while, at the same time, denying his own sexuality.
And, that is the singular SIN for which he needs to atone.
Because the name Crystal Palace was already taken he will be calling his new "place of worship" "Crystal Meth Temple", and from what I understand it will be one of the very first "places of worship" with a back room and glory holes!! Praise Jesus and the Penis!!
