Evangelical pastor Paul Barnes is gay

Our wonderful friend Ted Haggard will no longer be lonely in hell. He will be given company by Paul Barnes, founding pastor of the Grace Chapel in a Denver suburb. Without much drama, Pastor Barnes stepped down after admitting that he was gay.

Yet another sad day for homophobe evangelical Christians who were disappointed only recently by Governor Mitt Romney who did not live up to the high standards of homophobia and then by Mary Cheney who decided to get pregnant.
