Did Jesus ACTUALLY Rise From the Dead? - Jordan Peterson

[mandelbot]

Thank you, Jordan. I’ll remember this response next time my wife interrogates me about my search history.

[chrissavage]

Behold, Peterson's Schrödinger Christ: both alive and dead, or possibly neither. No one really knows, not even him.

[charliekowittmusic]

“Did this happen?”
“Yup.”
“So why don’t you say yes when asked?”
“Cuz idk what it means.” 🤯🤯🤯

[shanesawyer]

Jordan Peterson is so articulate and direct, until he is asked a question about Christianity and suddenly he doesn’t know what words mean.

[WintersunExtras]

The man is absolutely fucking desperate not to alienate the Christians who form a significant portion of his audience. That's it. This is why JP plays these games.

[markusklyver]

"because i have no idea what that means"

why would you say yes then?

[TheOpalHammer]

This is the first time I've ever seen anyone squeeze a 'yes' answer out of JP. Good job!

"Do you think it happened"
"I would suspect yes"
"Then why didn't you say so?"
"Because I didn't understand it"

This fucking guy...

[SpittingVillage]

It is genuinely wild that he still does this. O'Connor basically walked his warbling ass right through to an explicit affirmation of the resurrection and he STILL said he wasn't sure. And people pay this dude to talk about religion!

[kimyunmi]

It depends on what you mean by "mean".

[S-tank_]

"do you believe in God?"

"What do you mean by 'do'?"-jp

[hiho]

He's doing the same mental gymnastics he complains some people do when you ask them what a woman is.

[bront]

Sounds to me that Jordan doesn't want to commit to an answer. This way he can keep both old and new followers entertained.

[RevealAI-]

Hats off Alex, you managed to pin down Jordan to an actual YES.

The man can't just be honest about his beliefs.

[waxcomb]

I think Jp is in a bind, he can’t afford to lose his Christian based audience but doesn’t actually believe in the literal word of the Bible

[Aazdremzul]

This is basically the SpongeBob meme with Patrick and his wallet.

[IanM-idor]

That depends on what you mean by "Did". And it depends of what you mean by "Jesus". And it depends on what you mean by "actually". And it depends on what you mean by "rise"

You see where I'm going

The best description I've heard for Peterson's rants is "pseudo-profound bullshit"

[matthieurheaume]

Once you’ve created a mystique around you as being a profound intellectual, you can then always say “but no one knows what that truly means!” To get out of any questions

[jeremytine]

Bill Clinton could learn a thing from Peterson on how to weasel out of questions with ridiculous ambiguity
