There's nothing spiritual in understanding that works of literature have meaning beyond the literal interpretation of the words used.
But do any of the words happen to contain reasonable evidence for the existence of supernature much less of a deity?
Because if they don't, I'm not interested
The fact that you think it's shallow is clear proof you lack the ability to interpret text.

I guess it's you and Mittens that are on the "JBP is a fraud" club.
My nigga, I was literally *raised* on the shit, don't tell me I'm just interpreting it wrong
I never said jbp is a fraud
Honestly link me where Peterson gives a shred of evidence for god
Just one
I've heard the listen and believe song and dance a thousand times my dude
He doesn't give any evidence. He's quite clear when he says he's doing a purely psycho analytical interpretation of the text.
I'm done with esoteric bullshit I want hard evidence
The last thing I need is another sermon
No worries, you can tip your fedora, we won't laugh.
I just laughed

Let me put it this way, I trust a Christian's psychoanalysis of the Bible as much as I trust a Nazi war criminals definition of genocide
When you do a "I won't ever accept god exists as a matter of principle", you're not being rational. That was indeed one of Hitchen's most irrational arguments, appealing to his own morality.
I mean do you think it's coincidence that everyone who isn't already a Christian pretty unanimously agrees the bible is dogshit?
You can argue about not having proof, to Hitchens, not even Jesus coming in front of him and doing a miracle right there would have been proof.
Because it wouldn't be
Lol
I seriously doubt the "everyone" figure.
A dead Jew doing black magic would not prove a deity exists
The Bible is pretty crap as a philosophical text
Exactly, to Hitchens, atheism wasn't a positoin derived from reason, it was derived from principles. Therefore there's no rational path to unbelief, you just have to have faith on your unbelief, and try hard to rationalize it in any way you can.
Two words
Occam's razor
It's not crap, watch JBP's lectures before you say such nonsense.
Hitches like myself will never believe in God because there are no valid arguments for the existence of God
Not only does JBP consider the Bible an impressive corpus of texts transferring surprisingly insightful wisdom through generations, during the Q&A sessions there are plenty of atheists voicing their surprise, because they thought exactly like you before.
Honestly right, give me one reason why your religion is more valid than pastafarianism.
Harry Pottter contains the secrets of the universe because of how I intepret it
Yes weak minded people of all walks of life can be enticed by smart sounding people talking with big words, that is still not an argument
Whatever makes you think you have moral and intellectual superiority, dude.
Page 3 of my gay furry smut collection contains esoteric divine knowledge only the enlightened few can parse, prove me wrong :^)
Who mentioned morals lol
