Paul, I know you watch JP here and there, and anyone else familiar with him... I'm sure you'll enjoy.

While Peterson doesn't believe in God, he is, nonetheless, a very rare bird in acadamia!

I'm not sure that's accurate.

Have you seen his biblical series? It's on Youtube. I've watched them all. He was actually asked the question and his answer was that he does not know, from a belief perspective. But from a psychological perspective, the LOGOS rules.

Which puts him on what
present path?
No stop signs, speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel, gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me around
Hey Satan, paid my dues
Playing in a rocking band
Hey mama, look at me
I'm on my way to the promised land, whoo!
I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell

Jordan is very much the "common sense" man.
Nothing revolutionary mind you, just a very uncompromising way to state common sense and reasoning.
His biblical series is excellent.
His demolishing of the news anchor Kathy Newman in the UK was spectacular.
Imagine, a journalist asking why anyone has the right to say things that makes other people uncomfortable.
LOL !

From Wikipedia on one of his studies: "According to his study—conducted with one of his students, Christine Brophy—of the relationship between political belief and personality, political correctness exists in two types: "PC-egalitarianism" and "PC-authoritarianism", which is a manifestation of "offense sensitivity".[70] He places classical liberals in the first type, and places so-called social justice warriors, who he says "weaponize compassion", in the second.[17][2] The study also found an overlap between PC-authoritarians and right-wing authoritarians."
He nails the BS and hypocrisy found on the left, right and sometimes inbetween! As the circle goes too far left or right - it's basically moved into the very same territory, just with different acronyms and names!

He makes extremists feel very uncomfortable and that is why BOTH sides hate him.

Exactly, because he knows that the commonalities inherent in humans result in the fact that there will always be screwed up ideas and beliefs coming from those on every side of the political / religious / belief spectrum!
