Dan Haseltine, the lead singer of popular Christian band Jars of Clay, took to Twitter recently to voice his support for marriage equality.

Not only that, but Haseltine engaged with his followers in a discussion about the Biblical interpretation of marriage and he noted that he's unable to understand conservatives who use scripture to deny same-sex couples equal rights. The exchange started like this:

Not meaning to stir things up BUT... Is there a non-speculative or non "slippery slope" reason why gays shouldn't marry? I don't hear one. — Dan Haseltine (@scribblepotemus) April 21, 2014

I'm trying to make sense of the conservative argument. But It doesn't hold up to basic scrutiny. Feels akin to women's suffrage. — Dan Haseltine (@scribblepotemus) April 21, 2014

I just don't see a negative effect to allowing gay marriage. No societal breakdown, no war on traditional marriage. ?? Anyone? — Dan Haseltine (@scribblepotemus) April 21, 2014

Hasletine then started to receive anti-gay responses from his followers and engaged in a discussion about the debate surrounding marriage equality for same-sex couples.

Okay! Back online... Interesting responses. re: gay marriage. Never liked the phrase: "Scripture clearly says...(blank) about..." — Dan Haseltine (@scribblepotemus) April 22, 2014

Because most people read and interpret scripture wrong. I don't think scripture "clearly" states much of anything regarding morality. — Dan Haseltine (@scribblepotemus) April 22, 2014

I think the vast interpretation has left room for people to deal inhumanly and unlovingly toward others that don't fit their guidelines. — Dan Haseltine (@scribblepotemus) April 22, 2014

It is perhaps less important to know what is "right and wrong" morally speaking, than to know how to act toward those we consider "wrong." — Dan Haseltine (@scribblepotemus) April 22, 2014

Haseltine is still engaging with his followers and having an extremely thought-provoking conversation about rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) individuals and what the Bible has to say about these issues. You can read more by visiting his Twitter page.
