Preacher

What do you guys think of the sex scandal. Ted Haggard, a preacher from Colorado Springs, has been accused of being involved in a gay relationship.

He's admitted to using meth, so who knows if he did anything else?

Sinners belong in church. The tough part is, what can the public tolerate if they are running a church? I think the majority will confirm he should be out of the driver's seat.

A major embarrassment not only for the members of his church, but since he's head of a major evangelical association, an embarrassment for Christians as a whole.

Any Christian can do some pretty repulsive things and still be a Christian, obviously (that's why we have the term "backsliding"

) but there's a real problem when you have a person supposedly called of God to spread his message acting in this manner. When a man like this is leading a church, that church has a lot of problems.

But I keep seeing all the news networks talk about how this will impact Tuesday's elections. I can't for the life of me see how this could possibly have any impact whatsoever on Tuesday's elections.

Maybe some homosexuals will start voting for the Reps with Foley and this guy.[8D]

Out of the closet types don't seem to get far in the GOP.

This makes me wonder how many knew of this and said nothing.

Most people are covert when they are doing illegal things. So I would be a little surprised if more came out.
