kniwt: What you haven’t heard about the Colorado church shootings

It’s looking like the young man who last Sunday shot and killed four congregants and then himself at Colorado’s New Life Church, Ted Haggard’s former home, was a cast out from their youth ministry, probably because he failed their attempts to make him “ex-gay”.

    SO SAD.
