I Am on Kirk's "Professor Watchlist." I Know How It Destroys Civil Debate.

After the tragic murder of Charlie Kirk - one that I unequivocally found to be unconscionable, unacceptable, and sickening - I thought about his wife and children. I am married, and I have children. I can't imagine the unspeakable sorrow that Kirk's wife and children must be experiencing. So, I will continue to mourn his death and their loss. I do so because I believe in love, forgiveness, and the sanctity of human life. I also believe in the First Amendment. So, here we are.

The evangelical Christian faith on display at Kirk's memorial shaped his politics

Charlie Kirk's evangelical faith was on display at his memorial service this weekend in Arizona. The service, held on a Sunday morning, felt much like a worship service, complete with prayers, songs and a call from Kirk's widow to "forgive" Kirk's alleged killer "because it was what Christ did." The event opened with performances of contemporary Christian worship music and Kirk's colleagues and friends referred to him as both a prophet and a martyr.
