Is Ted Haggard really trustworthy?

Ted Haggard realizes that he was being hypocritical, and now he is apologizing for it. Ted Haggard himself talks about how he is against homosexual, when he had a relationship with a male of 20 years of age and his name is called Grant Haas. Now he is saying that he is a changed man and apologizing for it. Ted Haggard fells that he had made a mistake in being hypocritical and won't do critize people again.
Ted Haggard shows sympathy when he says, " I think im still deeply woounded and scarred and somewhat confused." Ted Haggard explains in this quote that he did something wrong and can never be forgiven. He is confused with his own feelings and is not sure how to feel or think about his situation because of the damage he has caused himself. He knows his actions were wrong at the time of doing, but he still went ahead and had sexual relationship with Grant Haas. He is unaware of his feelings and has regrets of what he did in the past with another male.
I do not believe Ted Haggard is trustworthy to me because he was against gay rights at the beggining. He then changes his mind only because he had a relationship with another man and decided it was ok but in reality he ended up wounding and confusing himself because of his actions. I also do not agree he is trustworthy because he changes his mind constantly and is not aware of consequences until he has to face them. People can still be trustworthy even though they change there minds but they also need to be aware of their wise decisions.
