Whited Sepulchre (Matthew 23:27)

Ted Haggard, evangelical pastor of a 14,000 person megachurch, leader of an association of 30 million evangelicals, right-hand man of Christian political boss James Dobson, confidant of Karl Rove and President George Bush, and staunch enemy of gay marriage, has admitted days before the election that he bought crystal meth and received a massage from a gay prostitute, but denies the prostitute's claim that the pair had regular sex every month for three years. The National Association of Evangelicals has accepted Haggard's resignation with "regret" for his "indiscretions." I would be curious to know what Pastor Ted's annual income was as a preacher of the Word, and what will happen to his ill-gotten gains now that he is exposed not merely as a bigot, but as a hypocritical bigot.
