Here's what I think. Rev. Haggard was tempted by the gay man in several ways, and even bought drugs from him. Whether he used them or not is irrelevant, since it's bad enough he bought 'em in the first place.

But when the gay guy was given the cold shoulder later on, he decided to take revenge by going public with an exaggerated version of the events that took place.
