"The Evangelical Vatican"

Rev. Ted Haggard said that God chose Colorado Springs to be the equivalent to Evangelicals of what Mecca is to Muslims or the Vatican to Catholics. With the Evangelical world and the Religious Right shaken from scandals and political losses this New Jerusalem may well be crumbling. Paul Asay and Dave Phillips report on this in this December 31st, 2006 article from The Gazette (Colorado Springs).

Haggard’s mecca materialized, but vision may now be fading
