Does it anger evangelicals that they may have given money that ended up paying for Ted Haggard's ...?

Question

let us just say "indescretions"

how much tax-free income did he have after all?

Gary: does that matter? Haggard has already admitted to it, well, sort of:

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) _ The Rev. Ted Haggard said Friday he bought methamphetamine and received a massage from a male prostitute. But the influential Christian evangelist insisted he threw the drugs away and never had sex with the man.

Answer 1

God's money anyway, when a person gives they give with the best intentions and the money is no longer theirs anymore...The person who takes advantage will have his just desserts one day

Answer 2

Pastors pay taxes on their income; churches do not.


And I hope that after they start dealing with any anger that they have about Ted Haggard that they'll pray for the guy to get right with God. The worst thing Christians can do for the guy is not pray for him. Well, that and kick him while he's down. Check out the entry I posted about Haggard yesterday on my blog.

Answer 3

I'm surprised that anybody is surprised at these things any more. Ted Haggard will continue to slowly confess a piece at a time until the election displaces him on the front page. Then he will tell us what we've heard before, "Now it's time to put that behind us...".

Would you buy a used car from him?

Answer 4

OH, my undesirable, i assumed I wrote that examine to Ted Danson. I hate it while that occurs. incredibly nevertheless, any televangelist who harps visitors into sending funds, has a flock of persons who're gullible. Jesus did no longer value for his teachings. And neither could desire to every physique else. Guilting people into giving of their funds, while all God and Jesus asked for replaced into our time is shameless greed. Jim Baker lived severe on the hog, and so do all those different charlatans. on a similar time as their flock is composed of many that're on the verge of dropping each and everything, they junket around the earth on inner maximum planes schmoozing with the politicians, or maybe attempting to impression governmental regulations. those people have been needless to say prophesied as people who've dedicated fornication with the kings of the earth interior the e book of Revelation. yet their day is coming, and that they'll at as quickly as be stripped of their farce of religion, and their facade will come all the way down to bare the pathetic parasites that they are.

Answer 5

His accuser was Jones. Today the news media reported this...

"Jones took a lie-detector test Friday, and his answers to questions about whether he had sexual contact with Haggard "indicated deception," said John Kresnick, who administered the test free at the request of a Denver radio station. "

Think about it Dummy.

Answer 6

I never heard the man before yesterday. I am sure it would anger those who donated to that ministry to think their leader has used their money inappropriately. Innocent people always get hurt when religious leaders choose to say one thing and do another.

Answer 7

Worry about yourself. You're coming acrossed as being far worse than Ted Haggard.

Answer 8

I'm sure it has some folks! But, we all make mistakes. Whats important here is not to Judge Him! Thats the Good Lords job.
Give to your church in your area. Go to church & See how your money's spent.-OR- This holiday season, give to family's that have nothing & you will be blessed by The Good Lord.

Answer 9

He doth protest to much. Power corrupts. I would hope his most devoted followers *#$! him alive and strip him of the wealth they donated to his cause. There are hypocrites, but this guy sets the bar lower.

Answer 10

I think his church was running on about 4-6 million a year, according to the asset statements. How much did he spend on meth and gay sex?
