https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-wWBGo6a2w&t=964s The thing about Jordan Peterson is that he's too interesting to dismiss lightly, although in some

tHE sense I want to rant and rave about how utterly vacuous is his understandeing of the Bible and Christianity. I end up having to recognize that what makes him interesting and een proflund is his psyuchological concepts completely apart from the Bible he hangs them on in his Bible lectures. ,br>

Those of us who believe the Bible as written he just sweeps away without the slightest sense that we have anything to contributge to the conversation at all. At all. He thinks the bible is an important document because he thinks such an ancient document must contain something valuable if only because he knows that it has played an important role in western Civilzat8ion. His idea of what is important is how the human psyche is put together, so he's looking for how the Bible must be a primitive source of the ideas that led to our complex personalities and culture today. He's looking for how it creates meaning and self consciousness for instance. He's very interesting at that kind of thing. He's just useless at knowing anything about the Bible's purpose.

He starts from evolutionarty theory so everything he says is run through that wrecking machine to begin with.
