	Haggard: 'Inappropriate' Relationship Not Physical Associated Press January 26, 2009 http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5iU3Vgczy1quPsy3F43dGP9dckikgD95V55NO0 DENVER (AP) — Fallen evangelical pastor Ted Haggard says he had an "inappropriate relationship" with a young male church volunteer, but it did not involve physical contact. Haggard's successor at Colorado Springs' New Life Church, Brady Boyd, has said evidence pointed to an "inappropriate, consensual sexual relationship" between Haggard and the man, who was in his early 20s. Haggard said in a new statement Monday that he met with the young man two years ago, along with his wife and a representative of New Life Church. At that time, he asked the man's forgiveness for "our inappropriate relationship." His statement says, "Although there was no physical contact, I have regretted my irresponsibile (sic) behavior."
