So it turns out that Ted Haggard is out to start a new church from his home in Colorado Springs. This announcement has invoked criticism inside and outside the Church.
Without going into specifics, those outside now have huge ammunition against the Church: after all, what does religion mean at all if there is no moral code?
In response, Evangelicals could say that Ted's story amounts to a testimony of the Forgiveness of Christianity.
Those inside the church, however, are not so excited about Ted's decision either. He was living a lie a relatively short time ago. Is now the time to tell people how to live when he proved he cannot do it himself?
Either way, Haggard's new church will face an uphill battle.
