Jars of Clay Lead Singer Announces Support for Gay Marriage

By: American Decency Staff

The lead singer for Jars of Clay took to Twitter this week to say he supports homosexual marriage.

Dan Haseltine said Wednesday: “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.

“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. I just don’t see a negative effect to allowing gay marriage. No societal breakdown, no war on traditional marriage. Anyone?”

“I don’t think Scripture ‘clearly’ state much of anything regarding morality,” he said.

The tweets prompted a response from Michael Brown, the author of “Can You be Gay and Christian? Responding with Love and Truth to Questions about Homosexuality.”

He said the tweets supported “the destruction of marriage.”
