Default Ted Haggard

Has anyone been following Ted Haggard. He is all over the TV doing interviews. He is the disgraced minister who was caught up in a gay sex scandal. He says thru therapy he is cured of being gay. I think he is sending a dangerous message.

What bothers me the most is the impression I get from reading that. He is saying his wrong doing was the same sex attraction and not the drug use and cheating on his wife.

I just like how these guys paint themselves as a "moral leader" and nearly always turn out to be some of scummiest people you'll meet.

All I know is that Ted Haggard is completely heterosexual.
