Ousted pastor admits 'sexual problem'

Well, surprise, surprise: I was right. But I'd like to suggest that his real sin was not sexual at all: it was the rank and odious hypocrisy he displayed when preaching every Sunday against gay marriage and gays in general, after boinking gay hookers the night before.

It's one thing to believe that homosexuality is a sin, a crime against nature and an abomination. It's quite another to screech those positions to the world while carrying on your own homosexual affair.

The Rev. Ted Haggard was fired as pastor of the Colorado church he founded in his basement more than 20 years ago, after an independent board ruled he had committed "sexually immoral conduct."

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
