TeDdy BeAr
So I'm watching Oprah yesterday ... What? C'mon y'all it was 4PM and nothing else was on T.V. at the time. Anyway... there was this supposedly popular Ex-evangelist pastor named Ted Haggard on the show yesterday. Apparently, this kat pastered a mega church in Colorado for more than 22 years. According to Oprah, he was a heavy hitter in the Evangelist realm. I'd never heard of him before but that's neither here nor there. Check this out y'all...
Ted Haggard is a husband and father of five. He's a devout Christian (at least by his own estimation) as well. Turns out that GoOd Ole TeD had been participating in a three year long homosexual extra-marital affair with a male prostitute. Long story short, in 2006 the gay prostitute dude, Mike Jones went on a local Colorado radio station and put his "down low" relationship with pastor Ted on blast. Needless to say, the pastor denied the allegations until sLiCk Mike aired a recorded telephone conversation with the pastor. BoOyAh!!!
Pastor Ted, realizing he was backed into a corner, eventually fessed up to his homosexual relationship with the male prostitute. So yesterday, he comes on Oprah to apologize to the gay community, his former church board and congregation, and the male prostitute dude. He wanted to tell how his pOoR decision took his family from cloud nine to rock bottom. He also wanted to share the story of how his tribulations have contributed to his spiritual growth. Good 4 you, Ted!!!. It's always inspiring to hear that trial helps to strengthen it's victims.
Here's what blew me. This baMa admitted that he was sexually abused by an adult male when he was in 2nd grade. He came clean about having had homosexual relations with a boy in 7th grade. Then he fessed up to the relationship with male prostitute, Mike Jones. He even went on to explain that he still has urges and inclinations to want to be with other men. Yet this joker looks Oprah and the american viewing public in the face and tells us all "No I don't consider myself to be gay." That statement right there perplexed the hell outta me. I was ready to forgive TeDDy, til he tried to trick me. I don't know bout y'all but that bama lost me, right then.
Can anyone please explain tEddY bEAr'S logic to me? Because, uh... right about now, I feel jive rUn AmOK, LeD aStRay, hOoD-wInkEd, and a lil baM-BoOzeLLeD too. SpEaK oN It...

CAR the way I understand it is the whole "down low" gang don't consider themselves to be gay because they don't act like, dress like nor desire to behave like women. They've convinced themselves that gay means they know how to snap their fingers three times fast! What they think they are is curious straight men. I mean hey I guess gay like everything else has become relative!
