WOTMQ: Jordan Peterson Is An Atheist
I don't think Jordan Peterson will ever shut up about Atheists not being Atheists. He thinks that everyone who grew up in the Judeo-Christian West is a Judeo-Christian because they "act out a Judeo-Christian ethic." But do they? I don't thing they do, either empirically or practically. So, I've decided to spin tables on JP and make the opposite point... that Jordan Peterson is an Atheist — exactly BECAUSE he doesn't act out a particularly Judeo-Christian ethic. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! Enjoy! B

Oooooh, this is delicious! Jordan Peterson is my favorite target. More, more!
Daaamn! :-) You do know how to deliver that coup de grace! I need a cigarette. Someday I want to face one of these wannabe telepaths and say, "Oh, are we making up motives for other people? Here, let me try!"
Is it too incomprehensible to believe that non-Judeo Christians/nones/atheists are capable of living a moral life merely because it is the right thing to do and not in anticipation of some celestial reward or fear of flaming punishment? Methinks not.
Religion ultimately comes down to a lack of imagination.
Like in "After Life," Tony (Ricky Gervais) is asked: "If you're an atheist, why don't you murder, rape, and steal as much as you want?" To which he replies: "I do… as much as I want… which is not at all."
The disillusioned cannot admit they are wrong, hence we living in reality must be "somehow" wrong. Jordan is simply another snake oil salesmen with a new twist on an old idea.
