In an e-mail obtained by NEWSCHANNEL 13, former New Life Church Pastor Ted Haggard admits to sexual contact with a gay escort and using drugs.

This is the first public revelation of what Haggard claims is the full story of what happened between him and his accuser, Mike Jones.

Haggard sent the e-mail to close family friend Kurt Serpe back in October. In it, he writes: "I was referred to Mike Jones from the concierge at a Marriott hotel when I asked for a masseur." The e-mail then becomes more detailed and sexual in nature.

Disturbing to think that this idiot Haggard had direct access to President Bush and advised him for a number of years.

"Haggard sent the e-mail to close family friend Kurt Serpe"

And from the KDRO article:

"Serpe shared the e-mail with NEWSCHANNEL 13 because he felt the truth needed to be told."

What a truly odd thing for a "close family friend" to do.

This is what you Christians believe in ?

Unless he was advising Bush about sexual conquests or why to blaze up at 4:20 each day, it’s not too disturbing.

[AppyPappy]

Not as odd as what Haggard did. Remember, he swore it wasn’t true.

[KantianBurke]

Haggard was a prime target of blackmail and coersion. Again, its troubling that someone who could be compromised that easily was allowed such an esteemed position.

"This is what you Christians believe in ?"

Unbelievably juvenile critical-thinking skills.

I hope you’re kidding ...

If the drugs are viagra and levitra, then quit them.
There... BOTH addictions solved! Sheesh!

[rbmillerjr]

Well of course, Christians are for sex, drugs, and rock and roll. It took you this long to get to the core of the message of Christ?

Wake up and smell the Christian-controlled java beans of Columbia.

[Antoninus]

Yeah, it’s healthy and good to be a sodomite...

[theDentist]

Yes. Sorry, I left off the ‘ /sarc ‘ I meant to add at the end.

[Mr. Brightside]

Don’t you know, all Christians believe the same? /s

[rwfromkansas]

was this necessary?

Ted Haggard was a wolf in sheep’s clothing secretly working for the devil.

He is no Christian.

“This is what you Christians believe in ?”

So, you’re not a Christian, I take it?

[LowOiL]

This is what you Christians believe in ?

I thought most Freepers were above comments like yours, guess I was wrong.

[porter_knorr]

Wow, talk about baiting and thread carry over.

"This is what you Christians believe in ?"

I'd be able to take you seriously if you'd be consistent enough to also ask this question every time a Christian had performed acts of kindness or demonstrated virtue of the highest order.

[rightazrain]

Baiting. Yes.
