In short, moral relativism heavily implies that there is no meaning in what you do, except to do what you want to, when you want. But Jordan's answer is that there _is_ meaning in what you do, because your actions and attitude directly correlate to how good or bad you might have it, in life.

@@borekstvorek Lol presumably you think it a waste of time to buy a car ?? I mean what's the point its going to eventually end up a rusting heap in some a scrap yard somewhere. ?? 🤔🤔 Me however I think cars are just great, they're extremely useful and serve a "Purpose" all the time I have one. I place great "value" on my ability to travel where and when I need to. For example my wife was ill last year and my car allowed me to get her go the hospital in time to save her life. I would say that alone justification for my buying a car and the value I place upon it, dont you. 🤔🤔🤔 You see this is the game theists like you play, you present a false dichotomy that things can only have "value" or "purpose" if they are the result of YOUR specific subjective imaginary friend and an eternal afterlife. This is most certainly NOT the case. My life has the "value" and " purpose" I GIVE IT cupcake. I think this is the one and only life I will ever have and as such I place a greater "value" on it than YOU do dear. This life is not merely some prelude to a main event or nothing more than something to be "cast off like old rags". I tell my loved ones everyday how much I love them and treasure every moment I spend with them. I don't count on some next life giving me the opportunity to do so. I spend my time trying in my own small way to make THIS LIFE and THIS WORLD a better place for those in it. That's what gives me the "purpose" to get out of bed every day dear. I work hard providing for my wife and 3 kids and spend most of my spare time doing voluntary work with young children ( many of whom are disabled ) the smiles upon their faces the only reward or purpose one could ever need for it to have "meaning" But under your theology my inability to believe in magic and extrodinary claims and diferentiate them from the many other such extrodinary claims of other "Gods" with differing scripture and "values" derived from them, means that I'm deserving of eternal torture regardless of how I live my life. A child killer however so long as he truly repents and accepts Jesus on his deathbed he can spend an eternity in paradise with the children he murdered. Unless if course those children also found the "evidence" 🤣🤣 for your God unconvincing, in which case your child murder would be looking down on them as they too suffered for eternity with me 🤮😡😡😡

Moral relativism implies that life has no meaning and good can be evil or evil can be good. I think Peterson's saying that we have inner biological meaning in our lives so we can base our morality simply off of who humans are. We hate murder because it makes our bodies feel bad, we have meaning in our lives because our bodies say so. Basically there's a proven biological base we can base our meaning off of. If you apply it to a real scenario. A depressed teen could say that since morality is relative, it doesn't matter what he does even if its self defeating in nature and leads him to have more depression. Peterson says that it does matter since biology wills it so, meaning that if you follow your biological impulses to find meaning you will have a meaning in life. I may be wrong since I don't have enough life experience or experience with philosophy.

Good for yourself is a value judgement. The value itself isn't objective. If a group says it's moral to act for the good of other people. That is also an assertion of value. The value itself isn't objective. You could ground values in the metaphysical like we traditionally did. Such as saying that the good is grounded in God. That makes the values more objective. Most traditional societies had such a metaphysical ground that acted as an organizing principle for their society. That could be God, the gods, Dharma, Buddha Nature, the Tao. But personal preferences aren't objective values.

I'm not sure if this is a sound refutation of moral relativism or nihilism. You cannot derive an *ought from an is* The laws of physics really don't care about your life goals, aspirations, failures or successes. But that doesn't mean that because *meaning* is not grounded in any empirical domain that it's not worth pursuing or creating. We can make objective statements about subjective experiences, and it is clear that humans ruminate and think deeply about the value in life and it's contents. This does not preclude humans from creating meaning by doing something you *feel* is satisfactory. I would add that it is reasonable for humans to do this so as to structure and orientate their lives.

I am new to this but here is what I am having trouble understanding. Peterson is trying to debunk moral relativism by saying that being in the zone of proximal development (or being in a state of flow.. I know this is different) is morally good and therefore there is no moral relativism? But wouldn’t different actions (depending on a person’s past experience and culture ) put people in that zone of proximal development? For example a serial killer could be in a state of flow when attacking a victim. A normal person would be severally traumatized by killing another person. Hence moral relativism... I don’t really know what I am talking about here. Can someone who does help me out with this?

A more superficial flow state is one thing. Deep connection to what is Real is another. I think he merges the two concepts early on, but gains some clarity in the middle when he starts talking about the Egyptians seeing being present as the highest potential, and the birds saying "pay attention!" It's hard to pick out here I think, because it's two men that appear to understand what is Real without needing to speak it. Which you can't btw. The only way to experience it is by being present and BEING it. Being Real. Go sit with a tree for a while. The flow state with this realness is very different from one without it.

So this basically applies to people with similar moral upringing. What about people who feel they're doing something right intrinsically, intensely, yet what they are doing can be evil in our eyes? This big rant doesn't escape the idea of moral relativism. It just tries to divert attention away from the problem of people who are driven by different internal mechanisms to those who would see their actions as bad or evil. This is why Peterson shouldn't be speaking as if he understands these concepts. He doesn't. He's not a philosopher, he's a psychologist. Yet his fans gulp everything up and many refuse to accept criticism of JBP's massive mistakes and uninformed statements.

Yes. the more fundamental aspect is not in morality, but it's in the worldview of them. When there's the view that good actions reap rewards and worth doing, then they'll do it. And where to acquire the right view? It's through the voice of other and proper attention. Or else one will just stuck inside his own justifications.

Your supposition implies a belief that we are all separate. In my experience, there is a thread that connects us all and is consistent throughout. When people act on impulses that go against that, they are disconnected from it, not feeling it, acting on a different kind of impulse. The "realness" that JP is talking about is very different from the inconsistency that you're pointing to. There is something real. It's very very consistent. It underlies every living thing. You can feel it if you're quiet. "Pay attention." "Be Present." To what's REAL

Love the passion and a lot of JPs way of thinking, and how he dares to say controversial things, seldom told by main stream media. Though, I would argue that JP often tends to relativism himself in his speeches, ie. "Death's and rebirth's" how we need to go out of our way from our fast held truths and right morals, to learn new ways and perspectives of life. I might find a little conflicting.

I want to preface this by saying I respect Jordan Peterson and I'm a huge fan of his work, but I've never seen him "debunk" moral relativism in any way that holds water. He says that "confronting problems and solving them" is "real" because it "ameliorates suffering and limits malevolence" (0:39), but that doesn't track logically. Reducing suffering and malevolence isn't an objective goal it's a choice, like wanting to make money, or wanting to learn how to kickflip a skateboard. To truly disprove moral relativism, you'd need to prove that objectivity can exist in and of itself. The same logic follows for trying to objectively prove that 1+1=2. If I try to do something like: 5 x 10 = 50 so, 2 x 5 = 10 so, 1 x 5 + 1 x 5 = 10 so, 5 + 5 = 10 so, 1 + 1 = 2 , I haven't OBJECTIVELY proven 1 + 1 = 2, because the logic I used was based on the presuppositions: 1. that numbers represent a count of individual objects 2. addition represents the TOTAL COUNT of two separate sets, each containing its own count of objects 3. equating means having the same total count of objects. Similarly, Mr Peterson's argument against moral relativism rides on the presuppositions: 1. Malevolence is bad 2. suffering is bad (and probably a bunch more) Since any logic that involves PRE-DEFINED ideas IS influenced by personal feelings and opinions, it cannot, by definition, be objective. Fun side note. My entire argument is based on Google's English dictionary, which is provided by Oxford Languages. It defines objectivity as: 1. (of a person or their judgment) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts. The fun irony in this is that definitions are ALSO entirely subjective, and that makes my ENTIRE POINT subjective. There is no way to objectively prove that everything is subjective, and I think, subjectively, that that's beautiful. Edit: I misuse "objective" and "subjective" a lot here, but my point still stands. Just sub out "objective" with "absolute", and "subjective" with "relative".

It's the idea that since people have different morals that in reality morals don't exist. Because my morals can be different from yours, therefore there aren't any true right or wrongs therefore morals don't matter. The issue is that if you believe that the world has no right or wrongs (morals) then that can lead someone to believe that there isn't really a point to anything (Like imagine someone creating a game where there aren't any rules or regulations, then what's the point of playing it?) Which leads to nihilism, the idea that nothing really matters, which often times leads to depression and sadly su!cide. If you instead believe in morals it gives you rules to follow which helps give life a purpose and meaning. I understand your confusion though since a lot of people make it seem like moral relativity is just the idea of "people grow up differently, which leads to different morals."

Moral relativism means anything goes. Nothing is good nor bad. Nothing is good or bad. THE REALITY we live in, we all agree a child starving to death is fricking bad. A holocaust or mass genocide is BAD. Moral relativism sounds nice on the ears that's it. It doesn't solve anything. Therefore it isn't real. Moral relativism does nothing to solve any problem in reality we live in. therefore it isn't real... he goes on to explain you can feel when something is right. It affects the reality you live in a positive way. Reality is changed. Therefore whatever you did is real. Moral relativism negates good and bad I honestly never understood why anyone would want to do that when you see the consequences of that believe. It affects reality people live in, in a bad way more then anything else. Therefore it causes more bad so its bad

Moral objectivism implies that there is something that is objectively true, and although we may not grasp it, we can walk tirelessly towards it and in doing so get further away from error. This does not mean that there is only one course of action (e.g.: you have to be lawyers otherwise you will fail miserably), but that there is a meta-pattern of how to act: a series of do's and don'ts that alleviate suffering and help one get closer to where they want/should be.

This is most certainly NOT the case. My life has the "value" and " purpose" I GIVE IT cupcake. I think this is the one and only life I will ever have and as such I place a greater "value" on it than YOU do dear. This life is not merely some prelude to a main event or nothing more than something to be "cast off like old rags". I tell my loved ones everyday how much I love them and treasure every moment I spend with them. I don't count on some next life giving me the opportunity to do so. I spend my time trying in my own small way to make THIS LIFE and THIS WORLD a better place for those in it. That's what gives me the "purpose" to get out of bed every day dear. I work hard providing for my wife and 3 kids and spend most of my spare time doing voluntary work with young children ( many of whom are disabled ) the smiles upon their faces the only reward or purpose one could ever need for it to have "meaning" But under your theology my inability to believe in magic and extrodinary claims and diferentiate them from the many other such extrodinary claims of other "Gods" with differing scripture and "values" derived from them, means that I'm deserving of eternal torture regardless of how I live my life. A child killer however so long as he truly repents and accepts Jesus on his deathbed he can spend an eternity in paradise with the children he murdered.

Moral relativism implies that life has no meaning and good can be evil or evil can be good. I think Peterson's saying that we have inner biological meaning in our lives so we can base our morality simply off of who humans are. We hate murder because it makes our bodies feel bad, we have meaning in our lives because our bodies say so. Basically there's a proven biological base we can base our meaning off of. If you apply it to a real scenario. A depressed teen could say that since morality is relative, it doesn't matter what he does even if its self defeating in nature and leads him to have more depression. Peterson says that it does matter since biology wills it so, meaning that if you follow your biological impulses to find meaning you will have a meaning in life. I may be wrong since I don't have enough life experience or experience with philosophy.

I agree with most of Dr. Peterson says here (not something that happens often), but I fail to see how it relates to moral relativity. You can strive to discover meaning in life and still believe that morality is subjective. Most moral relativists simply act based on what is good for themselves, and the good of other people, rather than arbitrary rules about what is moral.

Good for yourself is a value judgement. The value itself isn't objective. If a group says it's moral to act for the good of other people. That is also an assertion of value. The value itself isn't objective. You could ground values in the metaphysical like we traditionally did. Such as saying that the good is grounded in God. That makes the values more objective. Most traditional societies had such a metaphysical ground that acted as an organizing principle for their society. That could be God, the gods, Dharma, Buddha Nature, the Tao. But personal preferences aren't objective values.

The question of the meaning of life is but an age old classical example of an anthropocentric outlook. We "came" into life. Life never come into us. Life always was...long before us and long after. So the question is void. The right one is: How do i live a meaningful life.
there is a group, who, perhaps, bears a graver responsibility still: the psychologists and psychiatrists who see the human wreckage of these doctrines, but who remain silent and do not protest-who declare that philosophical and moral issues do not concern them, that science cannot pronounce value judgements-who shrug off professional obligations with the assertion that a rational code of morality is impossible, and, by their silence, lend their sanction to spiritual murder.”-The Virtue of Selfishness.
I'm not sure if this is a sound refutation of moral relativism or nihilism. You cannot derive an *ought from an is* The laws of physics really don't care about your life goals, aspirations, failures or successes. But that doesn't mean that because *meaning* is not grounded in any empirical domain that it's not worth pursuing or creating. We can make objective statements about subjective experiences, and it is clear that humans ruminate and think deeply about the value in life and it's contents. This does not preclude humans from creating meaning by doing something you *feel* is satisfactory. I would add that it is reasonable for humans to do this so as to structure and orientate their lives.

I am new to this but here is what I am having trouble understanding. Peterson is trying to debunk moral relativism by saying that being in the zone of proximal development (or being in a state of flow.. I know this is different) is morally good and therefore there is no moral relativism? But wouldn’t different actions (depending on a person’s past experience and culture ) put people in that zone of proximal development? For example a serial killer could be in a state of flow when attacking a victim. A normal person would be severally traumatized by killing another person. Hence moral relativism... I don’t really know what I am talking about here. Can someone who does help me out with this?

A more superficial flow state is one thing. Deep connection to what is Real is another. I think he merges the two concepts early on, but gains some clarity in the middle when he starts talking about the Egyptians seeing being present as the highest potential, and the birds saying "pay attention!" It's hard to pick out here I think, because it's two men that appear to understand what is Real without needing to speak it. Which you can't btw. The only way to experience it is by being present and BEING it. Being Real. Go sit with a tree for a while. The flow state with this realness is very different from one without it.

This is a bit simplistic though. Suppose one nation sacrifices the losing or winning team [such as what the Aztec did], and the other doesn't [such as what Europeans do]. It isn't enough to simply recognize differerence, but understanding that one is regressive or progressive to a healthy society.
So this basically applies to people with similar moral upringing. What about people who feel they're doing something right intrinsically, intensely, yet what they are doing can be evil in our eyes? This big rant doesn't escape the idea of moral relativism. It just tries to divert attention away from the problem of people who are driven by different internal mechanisms to those who would see their actions as bad or evil. This is why Peterson shouldn't be speaking as if he understands these concepts. He doesn't. He's not a philosopher, he's a psychologist. Yet his fans gulp everything up and many refuse to accept criticism of JBP's massive mistakes and uninformed statements.

Your supposition implies a belief that we are all separate. In my experience, there is a thread that connects us all and is consistent throughout. When people act on impulses that go against that, they are disconnected from it, not feeling it, acting on a different kind of impulse. The "realness" that JP is talking about is very different from the inconsistency that you're pointing to. There is something real. It's very very consistent. It underlies every living thing. You can feel it if you're quiet. "Pay attention." "Be Present." To what's REAL

Love the passion and a lot of JPs way of thinking, and how he dares to say controversial things, seldom told by main stream media. Though, I would argue that JP often tends to relativism himself in his speeches, ie. "Death's and rebirth's" how we need to go out of our way from our fast held truths and right morals, to learn new ways and perspectives of life. I might find a little conflicting. But also, There seems to be no denying the positive impact he has on people and their empowerment :) Good job!
This is more of a refutation to what he believes nihilism to be than moral relativism.
I want to preface this by saying I respect Jordan Peterson and I'm a huge fan of his work, but I've never seen him "debunk" moral relativism in any way that holds water. He says that "confronting problems and solving them" is "real" because it "ameliorates suffering and limits malevolence" (0:39), but that doesn't track logically. Reducing suffering and malevolence isn't an objective goal it's a choice, like wanting to make money, or wanting to learn how to kickflip a skateboard. To truly disprove moral relativism, you'd need to prove that objectivity can exist in and of itself. The same logic follows for trying to objectively prove that 1+1=2. If I try to do something like: 5 x 10 = 50 so, 2 x 5 = 10 so, 1 x 5 + 1 x 5 = 10 so, 5 + 5 = 10 so, 1 + 1 = 2 , I haven't OBJECTIVELY proven 1 + 1 = 2, because the logic I used was based on the presuppositions: 1. that numbers represent a count of individual objects 2. addition represents the TOTAL COUNT of two separate sets, each containing its own count of objects 3. equating means having the same total count of objects. Similarly, Mr Peterson's argument against moral relativism rides on the presuppositions: 1. Malevolence is bad 2. suffering is bad (and probably a bunch more) Since any logic that involves PRE-DEFINED ideas IS influenced by personal feelings and opinions, it cannot, by definition, be objective. Fun side note. My entire argument is based on Google's English dictionary, which is provided by Oxford Languages. It defines objectivity as: 1. (of a person or their judgment) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts. The fun irony in this is that definitions are ALSO entirely subjective, and that makes my ENTIRE POINT subjective. There is no way to objectively prove that everything is subjective, and I think, subjectively, that that's beautiful. Edit: I misuse "objective" and "subjective" a lot here, but my point still stands. Just sub out "objective" with "absolute", and "subjective" with "relative".

It's the idea that since people have different morals that in reality morals don't exist. Because my morals can be different from yours, therefore there aren't any true right or wrongs therefore morals don't matter. The issue is that if you believe that the world has no right or wrongs (morals) then that can lead someone to believe that there isn't really a point to anything (Like imagine someone creating a game where there aren't any rules or regulations, then what's the point of playing it?) Which leads to nihilism, the idea that nothing really matters, which often times leads to depression and sadly su!cide. If you instead believe in morals it gives you rules to follow which helps give life a purpose and meaning. I understand your confusion though since a lot of people make it seem like moral relativity is just the idea of "people grow up differently, which leads to different morals."

A holocaust or mass genocide is BAD. Moral relativism sounds nice on the ears that's it. It doesn't solve anything. Therefore it isn't real. Moral relativism does nothing to solve any problem in reality we live in. therefore it isn't real... he goes on to explain you can feel when something is right. It affects the reality you live in a positive way. Reality is changed. Therefore whatever you did is real. Moral relativism negates good and bad I honestly never understood why anyone would want to do that when you see the consequences of that believe.

This does not mean that there is only one course of action (e.g.: you have to be lawyers otherwise you will fail miserably), but that there is a meta-pattern of how to act: a series of do's and don'ts that alleviate suffering and help one get closer to where they want/should be.
