in life

2018-07-12 05:14:28 UTC  

I don't agree, I don't think we need religion for meaning, or morality.

2018-07-12 05:14:32 UTC  

and have hope

2018-07-12 05:14:33 UTC  

BNW also has strict castes, Christianity would run in opposition to that

2018-07-12 05:14:51 UTC  

I would agree that we don't need religion for those things, but I think we've done a poor job of replacing it

2018-07-12 05:14:55 UTC  

Like....I don't want people to be religious

2018-07-12 05:15:02 UTC  

but there's no easier alternative

2018-07-12 05:15:32 UTC  

I don't hugely care if people are religious

2018-07-12 05:15:43 UTC  

I feel like there is, spatiality (for lack of a better word) doesn't need any of the trappings of religion.

2018-07-12 05:15:53 UTC  

That's one of my major problems with Jordan peterson.

2018-07-12 05:16:07 UTC  

Jordan Peterson accepts the existence of nonreligious cohesion

2018-07-12 05:16:12 UTC  

what is spatiality

2018-07-12 05:16:14 UTC  

Otherwise he'd hate Nietzsche

2018-07-12 05:16:32 UTC  

And it's pretty clear his second biggest boner topic after Jung is Nietzsche

2018-07-12 05:16:55 UTC  

I don't know about jbp man

2018-07-12 05:17:03 UTC  

he's like verbal hitchens

2018-07-12 05:17:08 UTC  

Yeah, but I feel that the whole concept of god is problematic in forwarding the research into conciseness.

2018-07-12 05:17:09 UTC  

Doubly clear if you read 12 Rules, where he directly quotes Jung and specifically Thus Spoke Zarathustra

2018-07-12 05:17:19 UTC  

I feel so dumb saying this

2018-07-12 05:17:28 UTC  

@Deleted User To be fair Hitchens is verbal hitchens too.

2018-07-12 05:17:30 UTC  

Well you also have to take into account how Peterson compartmentalizes God

2018-07-12 05:17:33 UTC  

But I don't understand most of the stuff he says

2018-07-12 05:17:36 UTC  

Which is as a sort of force

2018-07-12 05:17:48 UTC  

@Deleted User read Nietzsche and it will become pretty clear

2018-07-12 05:17:52 UTC  

Hitchens was atleast easier

2018-07-12 05:17:57 UTC  

Don't feel dumb, it's a lot of word salad.

2018-07-12 05:17:58 UTC  

Look into Freud and Jung just a tad and you'll be set

2018-07-12 05:17:59 UTC  

to understand

2018-07-12 05:18:13 UTC  

He actually summarizes them pretty well

2018-07-12 05:18:22 UTC  

Not to say he doesn't make good point, I'm just saying it's in a lot of word salad.

2018-07-12 05:18:39 UTC  

Word salad means there are no points

2018-07-12 05:18:51 UTC  

He's taking concepts that are explained in 200+ page books and bringing them down to hour long lectures

2018-07-12 05:19:01 UTC  

I think he's about as precise as he can be a lot of the time

2018-07-12 05:19:01 UTC  

i.e- All feminist literature

2018-07-12 05:19:08 UTC  

No.

2018-07-12 05:19:12 UTC  

I know what word salad is

2018-07-12 05:19:18 UTC  

Everyday Feminism is not word salad.

2018-07-12 05:19:22 UTC  

jbp definistely isn't word salad

2018-07-12 05:19:25 UTC  

It make extreamly clear points.
