General Discussion

Every university has one. When I was in college there was a guy named Brother Jed who made the southeastern university circuit. His show was pretty entertaining. He'd rail about the evils of drinking, drugs, rock and roll, and sex. Mostly sex. He was very preoccupied with sex.

In more recent decades it seemed that each major university got their own assigned preacher. The local guy was meaner than Brother Jed had been.

Charlie Kirk just took it up a notch in terms of publicity and reach. Instead of an old man dressed in a black suit, "Charlie" looked like the students. Instead of shouting about damnation and brimstone, Kirk pretended to "talk" with his audience. But it's still the old message: "There are people among us who are evil. Drive them out or be destroyed by them."
