In 2022, Kershnar discussed his views and a book (published 2015) which question the immorality of "adult-child sex." His comments and the subsequent backlash led to his barring from the campus and a currently pending investigation.

His research and works focus on applied ethics and political philosophy. Kershnar has written one hundred articles and book chapters on topics including abortion, adult-child sex, hell, most valuable player, pornography, punishment, sexual fantasies, slavery, and torture. He is the author of ten books, including ''Desert Collapses: Why No One Deserves Anything'' (2021), ''Total Collapse: The Case Against Morality and Responsibility (2018),'' and ''Abortion, Hell, and Shooting Abortion-Doctors: Does the Pro-Life Worldview Make Sense?'' (2017). Provided by Wikipedia
