🎙️ Sentiment Without Judgment: Faith, Politics, and the American ConscienceIn this episode, Halifax lawyer and moral theorist Shawn A. Scott examines Peggy Noonan’s reflection on Charlie Kirk’s televised memorial service and what it reveals about the rise of a self-consciously Christian Republican Party. The event—part revival, part rally—unites forgiveness and hatred in a single liturgy, exposing the fracture at the heart of America’s moral imagination.Scott explores how Noonan’s lyrical tone—graceful, nostalgic, and humane—embodies a wider crisis: the triumph of sentiment over judgment in modern public faith. When civility replaces courage and beauty substitutes for coherence, truth dissolves into mood.This episode asks whether Christianity in public life can recover its moral center—or whether it has become, in Noonan’s own words, “a big blur” where grace and grievance coexist without discernment.Would you like me to craft a short (under 80 words) teaser version for podcast platforms as well?☩ Tribunal of Conscience ☩ Truth.
