In my amateur perspective of intellectuals such as Jordan Peterson and Matt Dillahunty, I find a fascinating juxtaposition. Peterson, arguably, exhibits tendencies of an agnostic, while simultaneously aligning with cultural Christianity. Notwithstanding this, he undeniably enriches the intellectual milieu. I concur with Peterson's perspective that while rationality holds significant value in understanding and navigating the intricacies of human existence, it alone may not be the panacea. Indeed, enhanced rationality can assist us, but it might be insufficient to transcend the inherent challenges posed by our hormonal imbalances and evolved instincts. On an individual plane, rationality might proffer potential avenues for growth; however, at the collective level, our deeply ingrained tribal instincts often loom large, influencing our actions and beliefs. Meanwhile, I resonate with the sentiments of Dillahunty and Sam Harris, suggesting that superstitions and beliefs in the supernatural bear the vestiges of a more primitive era. Peter Boghossian's perspective resonates with me as well; he posits that a proclivity towards religious, archetypal cognition is deeply entrenched within us. This evolutionary inclination towards the mystical might prove challenging to transcend in the foreseeable future, prompting introspection on whether we should even attempt to overcome it. On a personal note, my philosophical stance leans towards agnostic atheism. I am skeptical of humanly articulated conceptions of divinity, yet remain ambivalent regarding the potential existence of a supernatural entity beyond our comprehension. My conviction rests on the belief that consciousness concludes with mortality. However, an inherent, perhaps evolutionarily-acquired hope, allows me to retain a touch of wonder and openness to the vast unknown - a sentiment I find rationally justifiable in its own right.

@@IIIJTI tend to side more with Jordan. Mainly because when you break both arguments down, they are both based in concepts. The real argument should be, should a society thrive for virtue, or should a society thrive for happiness. I firmly believe that the reason Sam and Matt are able to seem like they hold their own, is because these debates take place under their arguments. For instance I can attack Matt's argument by claiming Rights are a concept not a reality, Body autonomy can't be a real thing, because someone can kill you against your will. The argument ought be, virtue vs happiness. I argue virtue is more compelling, because it's sustainable and can be with you, your entire life. Where happiness is brief spurts of the moment, and not sustainable.

Yep. And on the other hand: -Mr. Dillahunty, what’s your favorite color? -Blue. And then he might even show exactly which kind of blue it is: is it a sky blue, or jeans blue, etc. Many of these people Dillahunty talks to try to use smarty pants words that most people don't even understand, because they're not philosophers and not debaters. On the other hand, Dillahunty uses simple language and once he uses even a little bit of a strange word, like, agnostic, or even the word atheist, he makes sure that the person he talks to understands what he means when he uses these words. And he tries to stay away from the smarty pants words as much as he can. Matt is probably the best debater on Earth tbh. I haven't seen a more powerful one.

@@Christobanistan The problem with Jordan's scientific approach is that you have to know him to understand when he's talking, like psychologists do, in statistical terms. While I personally find that once you know him, the simplification makes his points stand out much more clearly, it also makes him very vulnerable to critique. Especially when debating more literal minded guys like Dillahunty, and thusly exposing himself to his audience, that is a mistake. Also, when you follow Peterson's approach, then you should know that the statement: "I don't believe in god" doesn't make sense, and just by writing in this comment section you show that you actually do, without even being aware of it. Or to put it into atheism-compatible terms: you follow a set of goals and values by acting them out in the world, and what stands on top of that hierarchy of values, basically your overall current life goal, is your god. You just don't call it that.

@@VolkbrechtI don't put much stock in your last point. I do good things because I like how it feels to do them, and I don't want recognition for them because I get self conscious. Like wise for not doing bad things, I try not to do them because I feel a deep sense of self shame, even if I don't face public consequences. If those vague feelings, and the mental frameworks I construct around them to better understand and rationalize them constitute a god on the same level as the Abrahamic creator god, then the word has no useful description. If instead you're saying that a god or gods are just feelings in people's brains that we made up stories about, and the stories got a little out of hand, then I agree with you.

Jordan is an atheist by mats definition and mat is not by jordans definition. The issue is the definition. Mats version of God is that of Ken ham, magic man in the sky. Jordans is ones highest ideal. So a "true atheist" is someone without any ideal/moral code. To have a moral code is synonymous with being a theist. It's semantics. It was a real shame they couldn't get past or seemingly even notice that was the case. Both talked past each other the whole time. I've seen hundreds of hours of both of them. TBH it was a waste of everyones time and so the publicist was probably right. Mat refuses to entertain anything other than sunday school versions of God. He serves his purpose well debating people that believe in that version but for anyone else does not. Peterson was right about smoking too. 95% failure to quit is pretty accurately described as "not really" especially when compared to 80% success.

And that is the thing about Peterson: he never produces any evidence or sites any studies that back up any arguments that he makes. He’s done this from the very beginning. I was watching the Cathy Newman interview sometime ago, the supposed interview that Peterson “owned“ her, but all I saw was him talking in circles and not producing any evidence for his arguments. And then he does this smug “Ha Gotcha!” when Newman has to sit and sift through his bullshit. And that was really all he had to say: bullshit. Admittedly I think she was playing for the cameras because cranks like Peterson bring in viewers. But she could’ve put a stick right through if she just asked him to site studies or just to name them, the studies where he gets his information that forms of arguments. Peterson never does this, because Peterson is, forgive my frank language, full of shit. The man is completely indefensible. I’ve listen to his lectures I’ve read his books and I’m not impressed by whatever intellect he believes he possesses. As of anything? I’m genuinely concerned for his mental state, because he does not seem to be a man that is operating with a full deck. But I don’t really offer him much compassion because he is a cynical opportunist along with being a pseudo intellectual and a coward.

@@TheGiantMidget That was my impression as well. But if I ever remember correctly Raskolnikov came to his Epiphany after he was arrested. Peterson makes some pretty interesting interpretations of literature, but that doesn’t mean that he is a philosopher or even a very good psychologist. The very fact that he thinks that a true atheist would be based on a fictional character is quite telling, it means that he spends so much of his time in his own head instead of actual reality. When he went off on a tangent about crime and punishment, he lost the thread of the point he was attempting to make. He just basically gave his own Amazon review about the book. It’s amazing to me that people can listen to him speak in that irritating voice and his pompous verbosity and think that he has some kind of giant of intellectualism.

He ignores so many of the reasons why someone who doesn't believe in god would refrain from murdering people like empathy, fear of the law, fear of retribution, lack of motivation etc. You could make an argument that if everyone was an atheist then morality would cease to be objective and the laws wouldn't make any sense anymore and the system could break down but even if that were the case, it still doesn't change the fact that as it is right now an individual person who is an atheist has plenty of reasons not to go around killing people

He didn't. They both did. They both spoke past each other the whole time. I followed mat for years watching hundreds of hours of him. Same for peterson. I'm an atheist too. Jordan is an atheist by mats definition and mat is not by jordans definition. The issue is the definition. Mats version of God is that of Ken ham, magic man in the sky. Jordans is ones highest ideal. So a "true atheist" is someone without any ideal/moral code. To have a moral code is synonymous with being a theist. It's semantics. It was a real shame they couldn't get past or seemingly even notice that was the case. Both talked past each other the whole time. I've seen hundreds of hours of both of them. TBH it was a waste of everyones time and so the publicist was probably right. Mat refuses to entertain anything other than sunday school versions of God. He serves his purpose well debating people that believe in that version but for anyone else does not. Peterson was right about smoking too. 95% failure to quit is pretty accurately described as "not really" especially when compared to 80% success. It's not proof of God but instead mat went with the strawman "it's impossible to quit without God"

They gave me the stuff after discovering a lung tumor after I drove myself to the hospital quite fluently dripping blood out of my left lung from ammonia which literally happened out of nowhere and without any warning. After the first night, I was already stabilized and had no breathing issues, they prescribed it and some other breathing stuff, but I had heard about it having lots of bad side effects, as well as that once on it, you can't just stop using it easily and have to be slowly taken off it. I never took any of it! I had a good radiation treatments for the tumor which they were almost sure was cancerous, and the tomography machine (nuke blaster) was absofreakinglutely groovy; I used to build all sorts of custom wave tech for all kinds of bio/physics labs all over the world, so I understood a lot of how it worked. So far I feal great, and it's been 3 months. In a few days I have a cat scan to see if it's gone, but I won't touch any of that metabolic steroid and whatever else it is stuff unless absolutely necessary. I already lost a great freind with severe asthma because of the stuff, and that shit did more damage to him over the years than his asthma! Not saying it effects everyone the same way, but it's one of those things that works despite being pretty damaging to many, but it's all they have for now that can make breathing easier, which I never had a problem with anyhow, and shouldn't not have been prescribed it in the first place unless I really did need it as far as I'm concerned. At least my brain isn't off kilter from the experience, like Jordan's is!

Just to be fair, Peterson never said, "Atheists are murderers," like Matt claimed, he described a fictional character who was intended by its author to illustrate the way rationality can lead individuals into committing serious crimes absent a belief in a universal God. Not the same thing as saying "all atheists are murderers," or "non atheists never commit crimes against humanity," he's just describing the world as he sees it, which is in the absence of a universal God, all morals are socio-culturally relative and there's no definitive way to claim that what the Nazis did was evil, the gulags, wars, famines, etc. were evil. The only way you can is by redefining good to mean "human flourishing," which puts good in the context of a "good move" in chess, it just puts you closer to winning. And it would be fair to say that winning is preferable to losing in most instances, and that as a civilization we would want as many people to win as absolutely possible, but this does nothing to establish values and morals independent of human opinion. So Peterson's concern is that absent the effects of a belief in God, more Nazis, gulags, etc. might spring up because the stakes of the game are significantly lower. Totally fair to criticize this view, especially since Peterson himself comes off at times like he treats religion or faith as a noble lie rather than a deeply held belief. Not to mention history is full of non atheists committing crimes against humanity!

Add to that a humanist manifesto, reason and logic celebrated and enthroned as the central means of governance and you have an atheist's wet dream. 'Do as thou wilt shall be the whole of the law' was the people's motto. It led to such debauchery, such corruption, such confusion and rampant crime, the streets flowing with blood, that within 3 and a half years they were forced to bring back religion, just to keep the nation from imploding.

The first time I've heard Jordan Peterson I was impressed by his intelligence. Then I've started to follow him and eventually I found some wacky ideas, not matching the first impression I had. I remember this debate and I remember that I've taught: this man is an intellectually dishonest man with an erudite vocabulary, or just another deluded believer like any other.

Interesting when Jordan wants to entertain the thought of God which he probably has not completely come to terms with lesser people and minds seek to eviscerate him.

Matt Dillahunty completely destroyed Jordan Peterson with that last statement. That was awesome!

I know this may not be connected to the interview, but what is the psychology behind a man playing with his wedding ring as soon as he starts getting into a murder plot!?
