It's baffling how one man can retain so much knowledge so clearly. Jordan Peterson is one of the great minds of the century
He studied it so intently for so long.
And he's pretty damn smart.
Yes he is. But that doesn't mean he's correct about every bloody thing . . . mate. I know folks are almost always looking for someone they can trust implicitly. That's what religion is all about. It gives us a chance to turn off our own efforts at thinking . . . and coast easy for a while. But don't let it become an addiction. Life is hard. And that means ya gotta learn to think for yourself sometimes. Or take the consequences. And take the consequences no matter what.
@@piehound comparing academia, intellect and perspective to religion is a really interesting thought process.
My Bible says we’re inherently separated from God and comments like yours are just proof to me. You need to develop a true understanding from your heart about God before you draw such conclusions.
His actual science was great and made him famous. His celebrity opinions is mediocre at best. I lost interest when he became a weak puppet of the zionist racists.
@@piehound Religion, at least Christian religion, doesn't tell you to stop thinking or follow blindly. Quite the opposite. What you describe is what atheistic ideologies offer you, which almost ever claim to be scientific or rational.
Peterson is proof that reading books, being learned and being intellectually engaged, is the best defense against tyranny and the creation of a society of sheep. Watching tv and being intellectually dormant is every tyrants vision of a dream society ripe for conquest. He's brilliant.
Very well said. It's encouraging to know there exist others in Western society who see clearly.

Jordan Peterson is the man who woke me up from a socialist mindset. I was so angry at the world for how I turned out. Only once I realized that I actually had the capacity to change my life did things start looking up. All glory to God for everything!
reading this comment actually just got me choked up a bit 😢 there IS hope!
He makes me even more a leftist. I think he is a great public speaker but he lacks imagination.
@@emmaphilo4049 exactly
I couldn't have said it better myself. I turned my life around this past year,put down the booze,and sacrificed a lifestyle that was killing me and my potential. Glory to God.
@@emmaphilo4049 Not everyone has to be creative tobe wildly influencial but I get what youre saying.
Years and years of listening to Dr. Peterson and i still hear new ideas and get my mind blown away . The amount of knowledge, clarity AND bravery he puts out is staggering . Surely God's hand is on him 🙏🏾
I am so very inspired by him, and I'm sure God's hand is upon him. I just hope in the final analysis he realizes that fact and that it will clear his vision about the true nature of God, and who Jesus Christ is and what he has done for us.
In the book of Genesis, the writer tells the story of the tower of Babel, where the different nations of the world decided to join together to build a tower to heaven, apart from God and his direction. God confused them by causing them to speak in different languages. In Judges, the nation of Israel's history moved in a cycle, where they returned to God, and then gradually degraded into sin and unbelief. Today we are seeing some in an elite circle abandoning belief in God on the basis of science and technological progress, which if not disproving God, has made him irrelevant. Still however, very many hold that religion is both relevant and necessary. In the book of Matthew, Jesus tells his disciples to beware of the "yeast of Pharisees." The disciples did not understand that Jesus was speaking not of literal bread, but of a spiritual idea and way of life being advocated by the religious elites of his day, as opposed to the life of faith being put forth by Jesus. It is this "seeing with spiritual eyes," that Jesus reached for in his ministry. When we approach life with a rigid literalism and does not search for evidence of God at work in his world, we enter the same cycle of the judges, which abandons the need for and belief in God. We also move away from a community that cultivates "hope, faith, and love," often resulting in isolation and despair. It takes effort to live this way. It takes effort to try to understand what the Bible is talking about, which does not always reveal its wisdom as easily as a newspaper or a science textbook.
Spot on.
I agree, and a really hard thing is that seeing/understanding spiritual truths is not based on our own logic and intellect(unlike everything else in the world.)
We need to truly submit to God, we cant understand everything, we're not anywhere near the level of God.
Jordan Peterson, thank you for bringing these topics and debating on them. I, too, much like many other comrads in this comment section, have been positively influenced by your instigation to pursue a truthful, loving, and courageous life. I think I was a little contaminated by the socialist types to adopt certain behavior patterns and falsely justified social causes. But deep down, I don't think I truly ever believed in most of this contamination, which makes any claims or arguments in which I showed myself compelled to engage purely exist for external validation-seeking reasons. After I saw your videos, I started to realize that I should stand my ground and not let myself be fooled by the manifestation of the chaotic forces that have clearly emerged to disrupt and subjugate society
Peterson is sounding more and more like the early Christian and medieval philosophers, who established the benchmark for intellectual inquiry. Perhaps we're entering a new renaissance.
Mr. Jordan Peterson, Jesus Christ loves you. Jesus Christ is the way,the truth,and the way.
I always like to look at nature on how animals act and react, as within nature how the mother will always protect it's offspring, it's baby, willing give up her life in order to protect her baby from anything that would prey upon it, it's nature's given instinct to protect and preserve the life that was born from it. I also have looked at how if a particular animal is trained and they have no natural understanding of what predators are, never to experience what a predator does, that animal will be oblivious to danger and what can happen to it. Case in point, there were some trained donkeys, they had never been exposed to the wild, or to predators, they escaped their enclosure. There were two lions on a hunt and they saw the donkeys, the donkeys with no instinct they were in danger, just stood there as that lions stalked and pounced on two of the donkeys, they soon died by suffocation by what lions do, biting their necks, there was another donkey that had not been attacked and just stood there, not understanding and confused to what was happening to it's companion donkeys, the lions soon noticed that donkey and they attacked it and soon all the donkeys were killed, the donkeys were so innocent and lions were so ferocious and grisly. I could not stand to watch anymore of it.
BUT this is a true allegory to what we are facing here now, ESPECIALLY with the rainbow movement, to what they are doing to innocent children in schools that have become literal playgrounds to predators that are perversion of nature. This is what has happened to the Reimer Twins, to Cloe Cole and all the others who are suffering now. Those parents who allowed this to happened, the ones who fighting for the continuance of it, for the making up an excuse of being inclusive and not hating, they are the enablers of perversion that will cause pain and suffering to their own children.
That is why you must stand up to this, to protect those young who are innocent, who depend on being taught what is right and wrong, in order to live a proper life. Do not listen to the words of these predators and their redefinitions of terminology, it is their mental and emotional tricks of deception, it's meant for the mind to be in a state of befuddlement, disorientation, confusion and then they will try to shame you and force you to comply. DON'T BE CONFUSED, UNDERSTAND THEIR TACTICS, THEIR TRICKS. STAND UP, FIGHT BACK, RESIST THEM, TO PROTECT YOURSELF, TO PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN, YOUR FAMILY.
I hope Hawley is president after Trump or Desantis. Id love to see JP as the Prime Minister of Canada as well ✊ God bless you guys.

Chaos of the worst and tyrannical kind... Where bodies pile up in numbers beyond comprehension
Jordan, I'm a nuclear engineer and I can attest to exactly what you said about engineers and it is the most frustrating thing to work with. I love what we can do with technology but there is an assumption that everything should be controlled by said technology to ensure all outcomes are as expected. What do you do about that? I feel like I'm kicking against what everyone just takes as fact when I feel like I'm just speaking common sense. Love your work.
I can attest . . . (typo)
@@sharoncregier1026 Fixed it thanks
I think it's really accurate to call ethics "the necessary constraints required to (repeatedly) interact with one's self and others"
and religion as "the necessary meaning capable of actually adhering to the necessary constraints required to (repeatedly) interact with one's self and others - ie ethics"
Now finally I understood why science is a gift from Holly Spirit ❤
When you turn away from God, you will experience a disconnection from spirituality, a loss of moral guidance, and you will give up your place in the afterlife.
Meanwhile turning to God can result in a deepened spiritual connection, a sense of moral guidance, and the support of a community sharing similar beliefs. It can also offer opportunities for forgiveness, redemption, and seeking divine guidance and direction in life.
"Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you of two minds" (James, 4:8).
This verse encourages you to actively seek a closer relationship with God by approaching Him with sincerity and repentance. It emphasizes the need to cleanse one's actions and purify the heart while acknowledging the need to be fully committed to God.
Goodluck and God Bless! 😇 🙏🏻 ❤️
If we control the knowledge, then it's real.
Think about that statement for a moment. It is absolutely true. It doesn't feel like it, but we spend most of our life dealing inside ourselves.
Well technically speaking we spend all of it in there...😂
But I mean concentrating on our internal functions, thoughts, feelings, emotions...
Do I like this, am I happy, I don't like what this person said and THIS is what I WOULD have said...
Our imagination is the key to all of this...
He who captures the imagination, captures the heart as well.
In other words, if you believe it is real in your imagination it IS very real... To you. Which directly impacts how you behave.
Thoughts trigger feelings, feelings trigger emotions, and emotions trigger a reaction or a response.
We were wired this way for a reason, and that is being exploited and taken advantage of at every turn. 👍
Do we really believe that people with gender dysphoria as an example actually WANT to feel how they do? WANT to be confused and unsure of who or even what they are?
Would it be possible for us to believe that their imaginations are running a 1000 directions causing the confusion BECAUSE they are being given a 1000 directions to go?
What about depression... It's been proven its not a chemical imbalance... So what IS it then?
Well... Perhaps it is someone's imagination that is trapped in past circumstances. 🤷♀️
Where does anxiety come from?
Well perhaps an imagination that is trapped in future circumstances that haven't even happened. 🤷♀️
Where does bi polar come from?
An imagination that is trapped in the past and future at the same time. That my friend... Is a system overload. Not a mental illness. 👍
You cannot be Emotionally present in your present life if you are emotionally present in the past or future. 🤷♀️
Hi, I greatly appreciate, as a christian, your exploration of the bible in many of your videos and your expression that the scientific viewpoint is not the only way to see the world. I would greatly recommend that you read Pilgrim's Progress - not specifically this video, but you are on the right track, it seems to me, on what to do, but I feel as if you are charging up mount sinai following the law. I would love to see what you think of the epistles which are a kind of exposition of the Gospel aswell. Thank you for your work Jordan.
The Pilgrim's Progress is my most treasured book beside the Bible!
I pray for Jordan to turn to Jesus, and discover the peace of God's love.
@@TruthAboveAll08I think he is very close
@almgaming186 At times, I think he is. Yet I'm not sure if he grasps the magnitude of who Jesus is and what he has done. I note that he often refers to Christ in the past tense.
He tends to read far more psychological aspects into both Creation and Salvation. His impressive intellect is the biggest barrier, keeping him from true faith and understanding.
Just as it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter Heaven, I think the same equation may one of very great intelligence. Especially when they've been immersed in the theory of evolution and the pinnacles of Psychology. It can be done, it has been done. C.S. Lewis comes to mind, even if he wasn't quite the intellect of JP.
@@TruthAboveAll08 HE ALREADY HAS...WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN, CHICK‼️❗
He's doing it again, Peterson explains complicated issues so simply that it irritates me, actually influences me to jump for joy?
You're intellectually stimulated. This is a source of joy indeed
Oh Jordan,
Your mind will be blown when you read about how the Tower of Babel is related to the Babylonian empire and the future city of “Babylon” in the book of revelation. The bible is a tale of two cities, “Jerusalem” and “Babylon”.
The logos J.P. is eluding to here is not inherently Judeo-Christian--it is written in the fabric of "being" itself and extends across a multitude of civilizations and cultures. Some cultures have a more robust moral system than others, but all peoples who are a part of a civilization have one.
The argument concerning natural law, logocentricity, objective value, first principles, etc. Jordan is eluding to here is well-documented by CS Lewis in the series of essays titled The Abolition Of Man. He refers to the logos as the "Tao" (meaning: The Way) borrowing from Lao-Tzu, thus establishing objective value is not found primarily among the Judeo-Christian, and not even exclusively among the West, but among all civilized people. That said, CS Lewis and J.P. agree on a fundamental point: without natural law human persons cease to be persons, humanity will dissolve, and civilization will implode.
"The Chinese also speak of a great thing (the greatest thing) called the “Tao”. It is the reality beyond all predicates, the abyss that was before the Creator Himself. It is Nature, it is the Way, the Road. It is the Way in which the universe goes on, the Way in which things everlastingly emerge, stilly and tranquilly, into space and time. It is also the Way which every man should tread in imitation of that cosmic and supercosmic progression, conforming all activities to that great exemplar. ‘In ritual’, say the “Analects", ‘it is harmony with Nature that is prized.’ The ancient Jews likewise praise the Law as being ‘true’.
This conception, in all its forms, Platonic, Aristotelian, Stoic, Christian, and Oriental alike, I shall henceforth refer to for brevity simply as ‘the Tao’." Some of the accounts of which I have quoted will seem, perhaps, to many of you merely quaint or even magical. But what is common to them all is something we cannot neglect. It is the doctrine of objective value, the belief that certain attitudes are really true, and others really false, to the kind of thing the universe is and the kind of things we are." CS Lewis, The Abolition Of Man
Can anyone doubt that Rome will be the final face of besieged political Christianity before Messiah returns? All alternatives are being systematically crushed as postmodernism runs its course. Left as the only coherence for disintegrating civilization it must synthesize and encapsulate all of human endeavor without the knowledge of God.
“When The Son of Man cometh will He find faith on the earth?”
The analogy with rats is an interesting one but the fundamental difference is that if rats choose to no longer partake in a game that they're destined to lose they don't have a sufficient enough understanding of the world around them to know that they won't be able to fund their next meal.
I think this is a good point but ignores that generally in societies through history, when the disadvantaged no longer experience a relationship that is atleast part reciprocal, it ends in violence, protest and revolution. And in individuals and subcultures (that is to say when society as a whole is sufficiently reciprocal but individuals or groups within those societies don’t share that same benefit) we see the emergence of criminality, gang subcultures and the refusal to play the game so to speak. Perhaps even increases in anti social disorders and depressive disorders and psychological disfunction(?).
I’ve only thought briefly about your comment so if my ideas seem unfleshed out let me know. Would be interested to see what you have to say.
@@Screwtoast2 Yes sadly you're right but I'm not going to want to take part in any sort of violent revolution, whose to say I won't be considered part of the problem? The harsh reality if what you say is true but these sorts of transitions are not thing you'd wish upon anyone, you quickly see just how the rules of the jungle are a stone throw away. Germany only needed 25% unemployment for 3/4 years to lead to the rise of the Nazi party.
Jordan clearly stated in this video that powerful rats have a short rule with a violent ending. The high-relationship rats always win the day.
@@pokehunt3r224you don’t know what happened to the germans before the rise of fascism. Take a look at all the perversion taking place by leftoids. The books that were burned when the new regime came had a lot of perversions similar to what you can find today coming from the radical marxists. Add to that the poverty mixed with propaganda that was forcing people to partake in those derangements.
it's true that you have to take those presuppositions on faith, however i wouldn't call them only judeo chrisitan. i think you can extract those presuppositions from a few sufficiently advanced religious systems. hinduism, hermeticism, bronze-iron age paganism specifically on the egyptian side all have this concept referenced in a way at least analogous in explicitness to the judeo christian worldview.
also, with all due respect, i don't think the fact that you can draw out scientific precursors in religious writings can be used as proof that belief in god is the grounds for objective experience. i've never liked the arguement from interpretability, because it makes the claim that "if religion got us where we are, then religion is the only way to maintain where we are, and by the way, i mean my religion." this is logically incoherent because once we can abstract our axioms from valuable religious relics of the past, we have abstracted them and no longer need to couch them in the same stories.
i think the scientific enterprise made some core errors in its youth, such as assuming its axioms to be self evident. however, i don't think a regression to christian fundamentalism is the way forward. i still think the epistemic humility of an secular agnostic is important. the "knight of faith" mentality, while necessary to some degree, has older, stranger pitfalls than the enlightenment.
Totally agree. Funny how so many here seem to think Christian Fundamentalism is in any way a "forward" direction.
@@Windrake101 It might be a forward direction for people who are going to be fundamentalists anyway. If someone was gonna be dogmatic and simple minded, I'd rather they be christian than woke or islamic. It's certainly not an ideal mindset though. Too sure of what it cannot know. Though this quote tends to apply to trans people more now, the voltaire quote about absurdities and atrocities comes to mind.
Nice username by the way.
So to sum it up: just because you can doesn't mean you should.
If you believe in God and the Bible, and believe in the danger of turning from God, where did you learn all that?- The BIBLE.....
The Bible teaches the bodily resurrection of Christ. The old testament prophecies about Christ have been fulfilled in Christ. Don't take too long to believe that...
If there are absolutes, and you believe in heaven, then there must be a way and the way must be one. Jesus makes an exclusive statement in the New Testament, " I am the way, the truth and the life and no one comes to the Father except through Him."
I admire your videos and have learnt some helpful things. But Faith in Christ is necessary for salvation. And true Faith believes that we are all corrupted by sin, the wages of our sin is death (Rom 6:23), and that we cannot do anything to remedy the problem of our sin. God send Christ into the world who suffered and died on the cross having obeyed God perfectly. He dies for our sins and raised for our justification (Roman 4:25). Sin has to be atoned for and Christ did that. Look to Him @Jordan Peterson and live...
"science emerged in Europe and nowhere else" maybe you should read through history books again Jordan. Or maybe, stop ignoring the facts.
he is still carnal minded. the world does not have the answers solutions to the lost state of men and women...only YESHUA.SHALOM
Define "God". To anyone paying attention, the word obviously doesn't mean a Sky Guy with an Eye. And if anyone asserts that we cannot understand 'God', why is anyone still concerned or obsessed with that word ? Fortunately, thought habits and mental installations can be reversed, solved, reset. Can't we all just get over it already ?
Let’s hope the future president of the USofA had Peterson as one of his teachers, absolutely brilliant.
except science didn't emerge in europe and nowhere else. modern science may have. but not uninfluenced. "there's nothing new under the sun"
What about God tithing from us? It seems the church is very corrupted. And it seems the more difficult things get the more the church buries their head in the sand.
What happens when you turn your back on God? You get a chance to see how big and bad and rough and tough you really are.

The second axiom seems like a deal-breaker to atheist's and the religious? Who can understand the mind of god? And there's clearly more information to how the universe functions than any human mind could hold too. Perhaps I misunderstand.

“In the beginning was the Logos, and the Logos was with God, and the Logos was God.”
I have an idea. Why don't we use ancient foreign words to make this bs sound more credible.
Word = Jesus = God
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the word was God. This is the One who was in the beginning with God. Through Him everything came into being and without Him nothing that exists came into being. John 1:1-5
Science and Metaphysics are one
Saint John 20:29
Jesus said to him, “Have you come to believe because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.”
Hindi Logos , Muslim Logos, Budhist logos. So logos is Euros? GTFO
😂😂
I can't speak for other Atheists, but from my perception as an Atheist, I believe that in one form or another, in a natural state of being, the universe always existed ... which completely does away with the concept that the universe was created, or that humans suffer because of sin.
To an Atheist, fearing the existence of a god, would be equivalent to fearing the existence of Santa Claus.
From the book … The Church and Mental Health, Published 1953. Phillips Brooks saw the difference between morality based upon anxiety and that based upon faith. “Why is it,” a friend once asked Brooks, “that some of these men who call themselves atheists, seem to lead such moral lives?”
“They have to,” replied Brooks. “They have no God to forgive them if they don’t.”

"Why isn't it the case that your own contemptible weakness should mean that I can do whatever I want with you?" I would say because as a society we rely on numbers more than individuals. We (perhaps subconsciously) value collective development over the prominence of individuals. When one individual takes dominion over another one shrinks and one grows. When they work together both grow.
To add to that, when one individual takes prominence, the rest begin to hate the dictator
i think it was explained in the video too on why it doesnt purely work that way
Society doesn't care about collective development. Look around, every society is getting worse and worse and all do to leadership that only cares about a few individuals
I think this argument still proves Jordan's point on moving away from God. With this argument, we've now shifted to a utilitarian doctrine where if you're more useful to me alive and unbesmirched, then let's do it. None of this is grounded in any intrinsic value we have as human beings like the Bible teaches. It's a "What can you do for me?" mindset, and that's dangerous from my view.
"science emerged in Europe and no where else." What an ignorant statement
Where else did it emerge?
I always feel like these vague ideas work only on people who are already believers, but they get no chance with non-believers.
That has something to so with the verse where it says people that have more will be given more and those that have less will have even that taken away. I am not explaining this well but it almost seems like predestination and election. It is as if you are either born saved or born damned, and only God knows which one you are. I know it is not that simple and that for each person there must be a point of decision (probably very early in life) at which their fate is sealed, but I don't know where it is.
There is a fourth axiom. If the only consciousness that cognitively and measurably reacts to the concept of logos is human, surely the most perfect example of logos presented in history is Christ. A human being whose message and example is communicated to world history by the Catholic Church that he founded.
Oh look! A supporter of child abusers. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Jesus started the Catholic church?
Science emerged in Europe? 🤨
Yes, the scientific method is a european invention, or more profoundly, it is a judeo-christian creation.

The philosophical approach and analysis he provides are very appealing to me.
Sadly we are seeing many people who don’t want God, and all the wonderful laws that he gave us, for our own good. But the people now who have there own agenda, and the evil that will be unleashed by some people will make ,Stalin look like an angel . And when the church is taken out of the world with the Holy Spirit,it will be everyone’s worst nightmare Christ gave his live for all those who would believe and repent and there is no substitute for the best possible gift and he is the only way,
God bless you Mr Paterson and your family praying for you all 🙏.
It is for your own good is a phrase often used by people who beat their children. Look what you made me do is often used by people who beat their wives. Your god is a monster.
Science emerged in African way before...In America as well.... Interesting talk.
Why can’t these suppositions for the logos be Islamic. Scientific theory was given to Europe by Islamic medieval Arabs and Muslim Spain sparked the renaissance in Europe.
Eminem said it best "THERE'S PRISON AND A JAIL A HEAVEN AND A HELL AND I'M GOING TO ALL OF THEM EXCEPT ONE."
Sounds like two people talking about completely diffrent things.
The implication that Marx, Stalin and Mao were the way they were due to their lack of faith is absurd. And is quite frankly a pathetic way to demonstrate the result of living life without believing in a man made god. The other chap’s ‘blindly following the science’ argument is nothing short of hilarious to hear coming from an adult. In fact, this entire video was quite amusing. Very cringeworthy but in the funny way that makes you keep watching?
Don't know why I would assume these axioms are true. Post modern nihilism, or however you'd want to put it is brutal, but that is the case unless people choose to order themselves around something else, and they probably won't because either a) they don't accept unprovable metaphysical propositions, or b) are happy enough with chasing the incentives of an atomized, individualistic moloch machine.
You praise how good we've got things, but that's because we're all being fed into the slaughterhouse of the soul. Don't know how the fuck we get out of that predicament
We become less sympathetic & have less empathy...less tolerant....less human?
"...science emerged in Europe and nowhere else." This is a laughably fallacious statement. For a guy who purports to be a seeker of truth, it's shocking that he can lie so blatantly when it suits his agenda.
How did our species come to be prior to the religious christian god, stood by for many 000s of years then felt the need at a certain point in our timeline to intervene? Recognising many hundreds of civilisations existing and thriving without any reference to middle east developments on religious thoughts. Truly I think they got on with things and lived a full and meaningful life without such religious "c" dogma. Japan is also one of the most secular countries in the world - not sure what JPs point is with this? Darwin strongest and survival of the fittest vs those that don't believe in your "c" dogma are condemned to hell?
Oh, the things I could say on this.. I'll hold off for now. Thank you for sharing this information, seeing your dedication is enlightening.
Hi if any one stand for nothing they accept every thing. Then we stand for something we will not fall for everything. This is true I found over all individuals and human activities.
I like how he brings in the ancient Greek logos. The word. "Luciferian intellects."
I will believe in God when God speaks for himself
There is a reason the Bible is called "God's Word". Read it all and pray for understanding.
There is no God. There is just the Earth, the Universe and you. So be content with that. That is plenty.
Another dead title “What happens when we turn from God.” He’s not the one asking that question he’s the one parroting that question for the one who first spoke it to limit the ones who would stop to hear it. I won’t stop to listen to this for to stop is to stop thinking, which answers the question. Moving on.
We don't know. There is no evidence of a God. What gives this guy the right to speak for the rest of us
Jordan Peterson reminds me of one of the greatest minds and theologiants of the 21st century; Late Ravi Racharias.
"Not only is it a power game, it can't be anything _but_ a power game, and all expressions of anything to the contrary are just subtler expressions of a power game"
A spot on criticism of the postmodern left, but it's an interesting one to be used in a discussion about god.
Once somebody has been indoctrinated into a religous ideology: not only is everything the design of a god, it can't be anything but the design of a god, and all expressions of anything to the contrary are just subtler expressions of god's design

JP are you a Christian? I know you believe in God, but I never hear you mention Jesus. People can expound and HAVE expounded about philosophies and the cosmos since the beginning of time. The apostle Paul, who was a VERY learned man, knew the Greeks believed in many gods including an unknown god and that they were a VERY intelligent people. But instead of engaging them at an intellectual level, which he could have easily done, he said, "I have come to preach Christ, and Him crucified". ❤
but the reason and the mythos work hand in hand, infact, reason is born from mythos.
Paul never met Jesus. He fell of a horse and had a hallucination.
@kevinkelly2162 you are loved
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written:
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise;
the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.”
Where is the wise person? Where is the teacher of the law? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.
Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things-and the things that are not-to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God-that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord. (1CO 1:18-31)
@@kevinkelly2162 sounds so rational i am almost beliving it.
Thanks Jordan!!!
While I agree with JP on many points, I think he is mistaken to root his idea of logos solely in the Judeo-Christian tradition. It is also there in the Socratic tradition without the need to introduce theistic underpinning.
My source is “trust me bro” so apologies.
I’m positive I’ve herd him address this issue and gave credit to Socrates and the pre-socratics.
Idk if his is a sufficient argument so I hope you come across it.
Obiously. The logos is everywhere. Before abraham I am. God prepared the world for the logos in flesh.
He can't keep anything simple 😊
Well, it’s complicated 😂
Hmmm I wonder why a society where there’s no one who isn’t Japanese is a high trust society
I taught in a japanese boarding school, here in the states. I can attest that their society is not actually built on 'honesty'. what it is built on is conformity. And that, they can trust in. they can trust that EVERYONE will conform. The american teachers were often against a wall with the headmaster. We just did not conform & this got us in hot water time & again. The japanese teachers would accept rules or ideas that sometimes weren't anything we were interested in. They were terribly hard to get to know & get close to; holding their cards close to their chest at all times. I once managed to get fairly close to one of the rare outcast japanese teachers & asked her why everyone would go along with this one rule. She told me that in their culture it was more important to conform & provided a unified PUBLIC front. In private with their own families they did not like the rule & complained about it. But it would never be discussed among the staff & they would never dare go against the headmaster in a one on one situation. She told me that was why the american teachers were always having a hard time. They could never just go along publicly & were bringing shame to the headmaster & organization. We were too independent minded & spoke too honestly to the wrong people. The only thing, in my opinion, that they could 'trust' in was that no one would speak out individually & so the powers that be were guaranteed compliance. Could use lots of other things I gleaned that supports this. not a society I want to live in, altho have respect for the Japanese people.
He looks so damn healthy
TY Chaps, GOD Bless.
It's Jesus smuggling again
Calamity happens.
Great talk
1 Corinthians 1:27
Dishonesty is your food
I would really like it if JP watched Answers in Genesis and Ken Ham.
Unfortunately Ken Ham and Answers is Genesis is far too literal for JPs deep and profound analysis
Logos speaks English

If there was one where is it
I love you Jordan
You can't turn from god since there is no god to turn from. God exists only in the human imagination -
Not so, you’re wrong on both counts
"the power game is a brutal doctrine" quote
Now go and watch the interview to Mike Pence and do the right maths
As rational being must have a desire to know the whole reality.
But if a rational being wants to understand the whole reality by using only science, s/he has other desires than overpower a desire to know, and s/he is afraid of truth (not courageous)
Senator Josh Hawley is exactly what we need in a government. Confident and sure of what he believes and knows to be right. He is an inspiration. There should be more like him in every government. From South Africa.
The one who desires to know truth requires a humble spirit. Be careful who you uncritically support and put absolute yrust in.
Lol
True
Apologetic Peterson...fuckin great
