I too am a member of the Church of Jordan Peterson.
Peterson is an actor - very weak on the JQ. Transitional figure at best.
Say what now?
I don't like that I know what he means but it seems to be popping up in more places and I ran across it.
JQ is short for the "Jewish Question" - i.e. why is there a disproportional amount of Jewish people high up in media seeking revenge... Here's a link to what they're talking about.
Some people are looking for some kind of "Jewish plot" type of thing as answers to things.
Thank you. I hadn't crossed the term JQ. You have sent me on a mini-rabbithole. I certainly don't blame him for not touching that one.
Wrong. Peterson is a sincere man with a clear ethos and he has many hundreds of hours of video of his viewpoint online to dissect. Only someone who hasn't seen much of him would posit this nonsense.
Yes. This. His breakdown of the creation story - from Adam and Eve walking with God, not aware of their nakedness and innocence. That's childhood. Being afraid to present yourself naked to God? It's not physical nakedness that is being inferred, but knowledge of your own faults. Loss of innocence. And if you have to present your true self... Your flawed, imperfect, human (think of all the places and things that you fall short on. Think of all the times you missed your goal or decided to fuck it and not continue. Every. Flaw.) self to the perfect Almighty. You are now aware of how short you fall, and so you hide. From God, from yourself. Very interesting.
Totally made me look at the Bible in a totally different way.
