4:10 "The larger you build a system, the more there's a proclivity to worship it as if it's everything." Thank you, sir.

[hichamboulos]

His capacity for analysis is outstanding.

I love how the Old Testament succinctly describes the human condition to the point that it becomes prophetic.

But this alone is not enough to overcome the associated suffering, because when it did we would create our own Tower of Babel.

The New Testament is unique in that it shows the ONE and ONLY way out of this suffering.

He truly is brilliant! And I love the fact that he has an overhead projector in his classroom. Fantastic!

[IntentionalRy]

Thank you for the energy you have expelled in order to pursue a higher order of thought. What I keep close to my heart: “I strive towards positive intentions, leveling up my soul, having a truly individual experience, and leveling up my consciousness…. This is the best way to live I have found thus far at 30 years old.

When is Peterson's coverage of the book of proverbs coming?

This video has 100k less views then his average video. Yet it encapsulates nearly everything important about reality.

One of my favorite stories from the Bible. I use it to explain why we don’t need to test God. And a few other points like separatism and individualism to a point as well as be proud of who you are and where you came from

[Razear]

I am secular and not particularly spiritual, but there is so much concrete wisdom that can be extracted from mythology and great storytelling.

Overhead projector behind Jordan made me super nostalgic

[jaykiriona]

At 4:19 his description of ideology is incredible.

[stevenjames]

The THINKING Man, thinks things out, resolves everything into its normal parts and so avoids Complexes.

[rickandaustin]

Please continue to do these biblical analysis. I love to hear the connections you make and it’s helpful to bring a fresh understanding of the text especially because plenty of it can be misinterpreted.

[carlschleg]

His point about New Orleans is accurate, and true

[aurochs]

Imagine being one of the students and trying to take notes

The story of the Tower of Babel
Is the story of the internet

"And the Gates of Hades shall not prevail against it."

Dr Jordan Peterson is a modern Jeremiah, a voice crying from the wilderness!!!!

Adam Smith cautioned against "Men of System".
