That's because he IS great. I'm slightly worried he'll be deified though

I grew up in a Christian fundamentalist household, and one time I asked my dad "why did they kill Jesus?". I knew that he died for our sins and all of that but I wanted to know why people would kill such a great person, because that didn't make any sense to me. He said "well, he told the truth, and people don't like hearing the truth". I've never forgotten that, and it blew me away when he said that. That was so long ago it almost feels like a past life, but it's wonderful to hear Peterson talk about how Christ's higher value was to speak the truth, to speak order into chaos, to speak the logos'. There is something truly profound and, well, true about this idea.

I’ve been listening to him for 4 years and I think I know why he helped me so much. He got me to stop chasing happiness and impulsive pleasures and got me to chase meaning. Meaning in my life and my duty as a son, a father, a brother, a husband and member of my community. To not only NOT be bad or be a neutral waste of space but get out there and help create a world my kids live in. People get hung up on what society should do for them, or what society owes them. That’s why the victim hood pushers hate him. He teaches people to not blame others for your problems. Get out there and bear your own cross. You might be suffering but guess what we live on the hard work and suffering of our ancestors who suffered way more than us. Man up and get out there. That’s what I’ve learned most about this great man.

They show that Tribalism is a major part of human nature. They show the fatal consequences of rejecting reason and failing to listen to your enemy.

I am rather vindicated to see a Christian philosophy of such profundity. For most of my life, it seemed that all deep Christian thought had been lost. For Protestants, it was government schools that overwrit their history and intellectual tradition. Catholics seemed to abdicate their role in carrying these ideas into the public sphere without a whimper. It brightens my day to see Christian intellect isn't completely gone from the world.

It's not even something just Christian intellects can learn from, but anyone can and everyone should.

The fact that these truths are so relevant and personal to each person is both terrifying and beautifully profound. How unique yet same we all are! Christ’s story speaks to all of us so intimately. Amazing!

You brought me to tears with the beauty and meaning, of the words you spoke.

He embodies the archetypal hero he is talking about, he is walking the talk. He uses new knowledge(advances in psychology) to give life the old knowledge(bible,myths,etc). Amazing guy, true hero of our times but as Jesus(and other wise heroes) at his time, not many people understand him or take him seriously. Good thing we live in times where he can be heard by people like us and not be killed by the church.

This man is giving me a profound new way of interpreting the Bible. One that would probably upset most Atheists because of how high of a regard it gives these stories and how positive it views Christian theological ideas, and upset most believers with how he considers it still something humans wrote, how evolution may have shaped us, and how there is some wisdom from non-western sources. The way his speech resonates with my everyday experience in life is both exciting and terrifying. And I like his use of that word, "Terrifying." No deep meaning of this existence that answers the question of suffering would be anything but.

It's a bad idea to begin with the figurative and end with the literal, the Church defines boundaries infallibly and then afterwards one may delve into the endless layers of the Sacred Scriptures and the Sacred Tradition. Genesis is literal history, as explained at the 4th latteran council and maintained by the Church for 2000 years until the recent modernism. Heresies have been faught in the past, this one is no different in principle and so will be eliminated, the heresy of modernism. However to be clear, Jordan Peterson's analysis is welcome and before him we have had many excellent theologians that have done the same. I would consider the Desert Fathers to be a good example of this by their emphasis on Christian Mysticism. But I would warn all of you that the Orthodox Church right now is in schism, which is a mortal sin, they have not had any ecumenical councils ever since the schism and have basically been left in the dust of nationalism in contrast with the catholicity of Rome which is the Mother Church, the Holy See.

I was once on a date with a man and we were discussing our Christian faith. I mentioned the wonderful "myth of Adam and Eve and the Garden" and he became very gruff and almost left me to eat my food alone. He told me how offended he was that I called it a myth. A myth often conveys a deeper truth than a factual history report. Jordan is great at explaining that.

I was one of the people who complained about the church. But now I realized how wrong I was. I need to take responsibility for it. You need to take responsibility for it. We can't sit passively and expect the priests to do the job for us. The real Church consists of all of us. We are a living organism that can create and change reality. That's one of the things I realized listening to You, Dr Peterson. There are so many things I am grateful to you about. I found the depth of Christianity thanks to your words and reading the Bible from a different perspective.

Dr. Peterson, in this lecture on redemption, delivers humankind with the answers we need to know and translate each in our personal life, to truly evolve and reach a state of grace again! Magnificent, he should get the Nobel Peace Price for his work! It's - so helpful!

Because of your explanations I bought myself a bible. Church could never convince me to be interested in religion. You did convince me with every lecture. I will read the bible, to learn how to act properly. I can do that most of the time, because I am your age and learned a lot during my life. But now I want to understand "how to act". When I started some time ago to think about speaking the truth as an instrument to help our society, I suddenly found your lectures and heard you saying, that speaking the truth, searching for truth and being unafraid of the truth is a remedy for many things that go wrong between people. You should tour Europe...we would need you here...I always had the feeling, that thinking is not a "direct" way of producing an answer. I believe that the thinking process is an "opening" process, where the mind opens itself to an answer that is already there. It's like if the thinking process allows the mind to be fearless enough, to "stomach" the answer that will come, even if they seem trivial. Thinking is a process that opens the mind to an universal truth, step by step. These answers are not in our brains, our brain is tuning in to a "bigger brain", that surrounds and connects us. This sounds a bit weird, but I do believe, that we all are surrounded by this universal knowledge or truth, maybe we are even a part of it.

I took Dr Peterson's advice on the Truth to heart and it has changed my life. My personal transformation has been extremely painful but I can now thank God for my sufferings. And like he said, when you live in Truth, you live in a habitable state that's akin to the Kingdom of God. I think he's right. I think I have found the Kingdom of God through my pursuit of Truth

I love how he hasn’t even come out as a faithful Christian yet, whether he realizes the Lord is doing His work through him right now, or he will realize it in the future. It’s amazing how God works, He always shows you that He was there guiding you the entire way, and even when we turn away from walking in love and truth, He uses our straying away for the greatest good, which is His will, He will use even the least of us to continued proclaiming, the Kingdom is at hand!

His suit gives me life. Shine on you crazy lobster 😉😂

Great stuff, Dr. Peterson. I wonder, have you read St. Therese of Lisieux, 'Story of a Soul' ? Upon a first read through, one may find - especially a man - it to be cloying and heavy handed in old-fashioned Catholicism. And yet something else may call you back : here is a simple, uneducated country girl who enters a contemplative order and dies young. Her diary circulated following her death and gained millions of fans. Why? She details a 'little way' to the great goal that you have described in this lecture. With your lecture and her story - deeply steeped in Biblical wisdom - I have no excuse for giving in to despair. Thank you.

Get well Dr Peterson and comeback stronger and healthier than ever. You are a great man!

I see what you mean, but if that wind (Ruach) is the Holy Spirit (Ruach) of God, it is good to be at His mercy :-)

He will be doing a 25 part lecture series starting in May. It will be on a similar topic that relates christianity to psychology. It looks very ambitious. I was in fairly nihilistic place for a while; not totally, but just lacked a bit of direction. I'm really forward to it, he is very motivational for me.

Thanks for reposting this.perfect timing!

Jordan peterson you have change my mind in so many positive ways just realise how much chaos there is in my life. Also to change my behaviour and open my eyes to see through a wider lense.

He spoke not as the scribes do but as one who has authority.

Man is this guy a wealth of knowledge. I'm going to do his self authoring course-- pretty challenging stuff though.

The best video even seen. Every single thing he said here is pure GOLD. Unreal

Right? I found myself being in a state of being as he explained what being in state of being was. Mind blown.

Tears of joy well up in the realisation that here is another human being who knows about the realities of life but also can fully articulate about them.

Jordan looks like Trey Parker from South Park here, but this is without a doubt, one of the most thought provoking videos on KZread. Dr. JP, good work sir

If you don't have time for the full talk , skip to 42:12. Religious or not, this applies to us all. Brilliant.

absolutely, completely bloody amazing; life changing insight. and no one got to their feet in applauding amazement afterwards. what more do they bloody want..? dr peterson, sir. keep on. we need you.

Literally the key to positive existence pulled through time by a genuine genius. I’ve watched this every month for two years.

not everyone is searching for "meaning". Some are happy just to be alive, and that's about it.

beautiful example of awareness

Im so thankful for your help!

Jordan, thank you so much for the work that you do. You are living what you teach, which is incredibly refreshing to see. I know it is tough--as my follow of the spirit continually leads to challenges and suffering--but I am more at peace with it as the years progress. I can live with myself and feel a sense of duty being upheld, regardless of what storms may arise. God always provides. I pray for your family to be blessed and protected.

You should have a conversation with Stephan Molynuex. He's been touching on this stuff lately and I think you have important insights that his audience could benefit from.

Mustard Lee I think Peterson would make Molynuex look like the amateur he is, which is why he'd never have him on. Like I said, it would be to the benefit of his audience, not him.

Love this guys passion, determination, and the depth of his mind ... especially his ability to perceive the inter-connectivity and relationships between different archetypal symbols which have manifested in the different records of the human anthropological corpus. What a refreshing character to have embedded in modern academia, fighting the regressive forces from within the beast itself. Jordan Peterson is like a modern day Jonah in the whale.

This is the Message for our tormented modern hearts and the crumbling civilisation! May this inspiring powerful sermon be spread all over the world . Let there be Light! This is It!

That was such a profound lecture. One of his best. I've seen it before but I wasn't quite ready for it then.

This analysis was quite stimulating.

Genius ! How sad I didnt discover him earlier in life ...would had saved me tons of drama i misery ! Love JBP

Thank you Dr.Peterson. May God bless and keep you.

This man is changing my life. Forever grateful for jordan ❤️ you have helped me more than you could possibly know

This was absolutely phenomenal. I would be fascinated to hear a talk from him specifically on the book of Revelation.

Best video I've ever seen. But looking for someone to explain this to me properly for years.

It's a blessing you are being discovered these days where have you been your popularity is appreciated

Just amazing

Brilliant!!!!

Keep doing what you are and have been doing Jordan Peterson, unknowingly you have help me guide my aim and piece together this mess I call life . Sending my best wishes and love for the work you place yourself and family through ! Be well ❤

Jordan says “aiming at perfection.” In the hearing of that I thought of Nisargadatta who stated that it is most important to be earnest. same thing. and in the aiming to your best understanding of the highest good while remaining honest you continually have micro adjustments (as Jordan also describes ) in terms of insight which continually refines your focus and your relief and/or fulfillment. Thank you Jordan for pointing our the most important aspect of “Christianity,” to die to yourself to be reborn (transformed) in both your identity and understanding of life.
