Biblical Series I: Introduction to the Idea of God--the end of Jordan Peterson's Usefulness and Validity as a Thinker (Philosopher)
I have not listened to more than a sampling of this--but quite enough to know that I heartily despise it and am profoundly bored by it. It is a second-rate re-mastication of ideas and subject-matters that were valueless and third-rate to begin with. What's amazing is how much there is of it: Given worthless, inane, vacuous premises, like the "philosophical implications of the Bible," it is the hopeless and ineluctable self-imposed duty of lesser intelligence (which Peterson thereby proves himself to be) to expatiate upon them endlessly.
Listen, stupids, and learn: There is no truth, literal, metaphorical or symbolic, in Christianity. Stop poking at it. In its decay and corruption, Christianity is a corpse that can no longer be galvanized.
I burn hot. I tend to exhaust people in conversation, like Margaret Fuller did Carlyle. Which leaves me (but apparently not Margaret) always wishing I'd shut up sooner. I have quite a few friends and not many enemies, but I'm very proud of the few I do have. There is consensus among my friends about me, which is how I know to write about myself. What my enemies think of me I have no idea. That, of course, could be dangerous.
The list of interests and favorites is absurdly partial and half-assed, particularly as to music and books. It's the stupid format of the blog itself, as given, that, of course, I color outside the lines and burst the seams of.
