Science is safe

He's good at science

and knows how it works

enough to see its shortcomings

Yeah, he is, but stuff like the resurrection are hard for him to grapple

That's pretty essential

implying the resurrection is easy for anyone to grapple with

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIB05YeMiW8

If you don't believe the resurrection, then we need to become (((J3W5))) and restore the temple

I'm not saying I don't believe in the resurrection

I'm saying that it's not something that's trivial to understand

and he's trying to understand it

Oh, it's certainly impossible to grasp entirely

I think he approaches from modernism though and that's a stumbling block

I think a large part of that may be that he wants to be intelligible to the major audience of who's listening to him

because if he actually went full draditionalisd :DDD then he would be incomprehensible

to the majority

and he is actually appealing to the majority with what he's saying now and laying hooks to explore the more numinous and inexplicable parts of the faith

Yeah, but that has its downsides

early on he described himself as a radical traditionalist

in really early interviews

but he revised that description of himself

I know a guy who was interested in Christianity, but after watching JP, now he has this view that it's all just metaphors and archetypes

That's a shame

Yeah

Because Jordan Peterson does mention, especially in what I linked, that "just because the metaphors are true, doesn't mean that's all that's true about them"

like, it being a real event that happened would only confirm that it would also be archetypally true and be the pattern of all of human life

So we have to be careful with him. I don't want him to be a stumbling block for people who are on the fence

That's just how deep God runs in the cosmos

It's just JP wants to stick to evidence of God in science, since everyone reasonable (in theory) will agree on that

science gets to be right, and christians get to be right

everyone wins

He's ridiculously optimistic

Any of you dudes have experience with ritdye?

Good conversations again in the meme chat

Purgatory is what I cannot accept tbh
the view on it is same with me in 2 years ago.

I also noticed that St.Mark of Ephesus wrote good criticism against purgatory.

I also heard the catholic's view on Purgatory. But As well as 2 years ago and a year ago, My mind doesn't accept it.

So convert @Βασίλειος Θεοδόσιος

I think he is in the process or is already Orthodox

Converting to the Orthodox
