39:48 Jordan Peterson on the Meaning of Sacrifice
1:10:13 So sacrifice is either giving something for nothing, or giving something for “spiritual salvation ?” These 2 seem like 2 distinct concepts.
1:12:55 Jordan Peterson on the Meaning of Sacrifice
Live Questions:
1:38:08 here´s to no free-riding!
1:38:22 Why Jordan Peterson when Interview others w, doesnt Let other people talk ? Why he use a lot of story which doesn’t make sense ?
1:42:19 Why Jordan believes or haven’t stop him from abusing drugs and crying like a baby on tv? Also his only daughter getting a divorce means his teaching doesn’t have value in closest person to him as conservative
1:47:02 Why won’t the irrationalists give up mysticism? I sense a lot of intellectual rationalizing for the purpose of negating the fact that reality is all there is. Why is humanity so opposed to the absolutism of reality?
1:50:45 A fear of repudiating self sacrifice is, in the end, most want to be able to demand that another sacrifice for them. They want the option to force compliance with their demand should it be needed.
1:51:36 Faith is the sacrifice of reason, hope is the sacrifice of purpose, charity is the sacrifice of selfesteem. Sacrifice is the death of all values.
1:52:40 So if sacrifice is boiled down to its essentials, it is giving up something without a RATIONAL expectation of value in return?
1:52:55 Would Peterson SACRIFICE his career for the greater good if it came to it? Would he put his money where his mouth is if it meant no fame?
1:53:20 Is Jordan Peterson’s advice making men in the culture more feminine?
1:53:46 In my experience, confusion around sacrifice is a key hindrance to many layfolk taking objectivist ideas in earnest. Most conflate anti-self sacrifice with whim worship/hedonism and plug their ears.
1:55:13 Jordan has a remarkable way of going around his elbow to get to his thumb. if he'd just advocate the Nucene creddd, then he'd be better iff.
1:57:19 "No Earthly reason has ever been given for it."
1:57:27 If Augustine and JP say we are predetermined, why is "choice", "action" meaningful to JP?
1:58:11 Are you still teaching petersons course?
1:59:51 Hi Yaron, thanks for the great show! Jordan ...well well... when he says something like “women are cheeky and vicious because beating them is a taboo” it turns me off heavily. very incel-ish and whiny
2:00:19 You made a psychological point re Petersen, that you thought his purpose in justifying sacrifice is to justify religion. Or did I misunderstand?
2:02:25 Peterson reminds me of that character, Harding, in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" who is given sh!t by the character, Taber, (young Christopher Lloyd) for rambling on and on, using big words, without making any sense.
2:03:07 Sorry to hear about your shoulder. Have you tried using "Forward Healthcare"? Theres no lines when you go to the doctor. They don't take insurance. You just pay monthly, it's a free market solution. You text the doctors your symptoms and when you want to be seen.
2:05:15 Catching up. Been reading Helmut Schoecks 'Envy' and re-reading one of my favourite books 'The Keynesian Epissode' by W.H. Hutt. to get some inspiration.
2:05:34 ever heard of a youtuber named Mike Israetel? he´s a fitness guru but was recently on Quillette´s podcast and spoke positively about AR and espoused many rational views! Go Dr. Mike!
2:06:40 Hi! On Lake Michigan beach in Upper Peninsula. I heard about your shoulder. Hope it all turns out well.
2:07:07 You’ve said you don’t like the term “over thinking” but I think it’s useful for two scenarios: over analyzing things of no consequence, and thinking over something repeatedly because you’re afraid to trust your judgement.
