My team sent me the following clips of @jordanbpeterson He says I’m a Christian, although I don’t know it. Well, I certainly don’t know it. He also says I’m “the last standing avatar of the rationalist spirit.” I’ll take that! Also, I'm still waiting for the in-person conversation Peterson keeps talking about…
@RichardDawkins @jordanbpeterson You can’t be a Christian & ‘not know it’. To be a Christian you must receive the Holy Spirit & become regenerate in your redemptive faith in Jesus Christ, whom you boldly & unashamedly profess to be your Lord & Saviour. Ye must be born again John 3:7 Neither of you are Christians
@RichardDawkins @jordanbpeterson Prof Dawkins - unfortunately, Peterson is given to making evidence-free and sometimes content-free outlandish statements He said in a recent video with someone named Destiny: “Vaccines were not tested by any stretch of the imagination” “It wasn’t a vaccine” Etc, etc
@RichardDawkins @jordanbpeterson His comments on Nietzsche are interesting.. “We can’t create our own values” But everyone does. Even if you’re outsourcing to religious scriptures, you have to decide which religion is worth observing and which ones to ignore. That’s you choosing your own values
@RichardDawkins @jordanbpeterson You already admitted to being "culturally Christian." I think that is basically what Peterson is saying.
@RichardDawkins @jordanbpeterson I look forward to watching you two debate this. If I'm understanding correctly, JBP postulates that humans are lost without religion, that there's no way to have a functional society without god at the centre as the moral good. I disagree and would love to hear your argument.
When/if you ever humor this patriarchal, if not downright male-chauvinistic, misogynistic and arrogant Peterson, would you mind asking him what he thinks about people like Angela Merkel, Marie Curie, Marilyn vos Savant, Margaret Thatcher and other such women, and if he thinks these women needed a strong man to guide them.? Peterson owes his fame and fortune to the ignorance and credulity of the masses, and to weak men, who love to find justification for disrespecting, subjecting and humiliating women. You, Professor Dawkins, owe your fame and fortune through merited regard by scholars, as well as by the masses. None of us are perfect, but Peterson hasn’t got a patch on your integrity, intelligence, knowledge and wisdom. 😊

Is this you? "I feel at home in the Christian ethos." Yes, it is you. Recently. That's what Peterson means. You are a "cultural Christian". The distinction between the cultural and the religious Christian was always like this: the sun goes out - pouf - and a cultural Christian on earth rejoices: "I can feel the rays. It's warm. We didn't need the sun." Jut wait 8 minutes and 20 seconds.
@RichardDawkins @jordanbpeterson I would love to see you have a conversation with Dr. Peterson. Not a debate, but a friendly discussion.
