Bill Maher CONFRONTS Jordan Peterson On The BIBLE (then learns valuable lesson!)

[geeman]

I agree that JP handles such situations with dignity and doesn't respond to mocking. His example inspires me to do the same.

It's so weird to watch it when only one of them is really trying to have a conversation

“For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭1‬:‭18‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Jordan Peterson showing the important lessons behind the passage is very intelligent and brilliant. You can’t argue with the lessons being important/relevant

[j.l.cooper]

This was so beautiful 😍❤️

Even if Bill wasn't listening, he has a platform and others would listen to, therefore, Jordan has had a change to plant a seed in the hearts and minds of Bill's listeners.

[jimhughes]

Bill describes how goofy it is for people to judge something they haven't read... And then calls the Bible Goofy, knowing he hasn't read it either 😎😂...

Mahar is as high as a kite, kudos to Peterson for trying to have a normal conversation with somebody that refuses to listen, only wants to confirm their biases.

[boomboxbreezy]

"It's full of mostly nonsense" Wow. I thought the same way for most of my life. I thought the bible was a bunch of mumbo jumbo. I truly thank God he did what he had to do to pull me out of the wilderness. I love these conversations and I had many of them before my eyes were opened. Unfortunately, nothing JP says will change Bill's mind in any way, shape, or form. I truly believe only God can open someone's eyes and awaken their spirit.

What I appreciate about Peterson [curse words and all] is that he meets the mocking, unbelieving, Bill Maher at his level and dispenses truth in a manner that causes Maher to consider it. Thus, a seed was planted. If only we as believers had the same measure of patience with those like Bill who we come in contact with.

Everything is comically stupid to a fool.

I applaud Jordon for his tact to get people out of mockery and move one step closer to considering the words on the page.

I work along side a large range of ages from 21-60. And the closer they are to 21 the less they listen, more they mock, and their instinct is reactionary instead of contemplative and considerate. Not saying considerate as in thinking of others feelings but considering the ideas and possible application and meaning. A patient and considerate person does not jump at the first impulse they have when hearing someone speak. But patiently considers the other perspectives and hears them for possible conclusions. Asking questions in order to better understand rather making factual mocking remarks because you think you already understand something that you haven’t even given your mind an option of considering.

Professor Peterson accomplished what most believers would never attempt. His host was dismissive and belittling of the Bible. Instead of getting offended, Peterson reasoned with the man and made sense of the purpose of the Scriptures. If we are in the Spirit and have love in our hearts, we can share Truth with a desperate world. 🙏🏼

Peterson was very impressive here. It's great to see him cool, steady, calm and communicating with great clarity.

[randywise]

Bill can be comically stupid sometimes too.

[emptyarthaus]

I don't think Bill knew who exactly he was talking too to call the Bible stupid to his face. Peterson has researched it so much and his admiration for it isn't exactly a secret.

[vfpfootball]

I thought the same way as Bill, and then I realized what's important is the meaning of stories. Focusing on Why not to believe, instead of on why to believe. These stories teach valuable lessons.
I'm grateful, God opened my eyes & heart 🙏

[yelsahblah]

I just adore Peterson, he could chat about anything and I'd find it interesting. His framing of the Bible is honestly refreshing. As a Bible believing Christian it's been fun watching him dive into the word and find so much meaning. I'll continue to pray for his salvation.

I can’t stand Bill Maher. But the Bible is true when it say “Claiming to be wise, they became fools” Rom. 1:22

[exspiravit]

6:42

“And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭4‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“But when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬ ‭ESV‬‬
