Haggard Is “Cured”
After three weeks of intensive counseling by four ministers Ted Haggard is now ”completely heterosexual.”
-
Haggard also said his sexual contact with men was limited to the former male prostitute who came forward with sexual allegations, the Rev. Tim Ralph of Larkspur told The Denver Post for a story in Tuesday’s edition.
”He is completely heterosexual,” Ralph said. ”That is something he discovered. It was the acting-out situations where things took place. It wasn’t a constant thing.”
-
Ralph said the board spoke with people close to Haggard while investigating his claim that his only extramarital sexual contact happened with Mike Jones. The board found no evidence to the contrary.
-
”If we’re going to be proved wrong, somebody else is going to come forward, and that usually happens really quickly,” he said. ”We’re into this thing over 90 days and it hasn’t happened.”
Haggard stepped down as president of the National Association of Evangelicals last year following allegations that he had sex with and used methamphetamine with Jones, a (former?) male prostitute (who recently visited Haggard’s former church, btw).
James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family, commented late last year to Larry King that it could take four or five years to turn Haggard into an ex-gay. No wonder they used four ministers.
NOT!!
