At least try to be original - this thread already exists.
I like Jordan Peterson I even bought his book.
I hate his usage of the Bible to illustrate his points I don’t care about the Bible regardless of how many hidden meanings there are I just want to be told how to live my life
Isn't that what the bible does?
Holy fuck
Fuck I bumped the wrong jordan peterson thread
Please merge this thread with the other jp thread and delete this post
No haha. I don’t think that I will
JP and Sam Harris are both pretty clueless when it comes to philosophical discussions. The whole debate series between them was some of the dumbest shit I’ve ever listened to.
Sam doesn’t understand that he is literally a fundamentalist…the people he despises.
and JP jerked off about how myths can help people.
holy fuck
jordan peterson wrote an entire book about myths and the lessons we can learn from them to improve our lives
there is probably some sense involved (he’s probably making the point that we have a collective cultural knowledge of how to solve certain problems; I say probably because I haven’t read it so I really dont know anyhting) but as I understand it mostly boiled down to “and that’s why everybody should read the Bible”
I read it
He also did a large series of lectures going over the stories of the bible and the interpretations and lessons of it.
His self help stuff is pretty good from what I’ve seen and heard.
His problem is when he dives into politics and philosophy like he has literally any understanding of these fields.
He pontificates on random ideas or solutions to political problems with very little nuanced or critical thought. “HAHA WELL WHAT IF XD”
don’t we all
A sam harris and jp video autoplayed on my youtube this week and when I saw sam wave to the applauding crowd I was so disgusted
Oh didn’t see this lol
