12yearplan, Dawkins indicated clearly he wasn't interested much at all in what Peterson had to say. I didn't suggest he used the same words as i did.
You say you understand where Peterson's appeal lies. Shermer said he understands too. Not as much as those too, but I understand too. Seems i'm turned off Peterson for similar reason as Shermer is. And Shermer obviously has spent much more time on him. Dawkins very relatively little.
You say:
"As a compassionate and skilled psychologist he seems to help a lot of people And, from a rigorous examination of (his/the) science get's respect from peers. His Christian Conservative bent also get's wide appeal I'm assuming and knowing What that can translate into in the final analysis aka a mean spirited Trump Bowel Movement is wholly unacceptable. More important is where those inconsistencies lie and should be debated fiercely Not worrying if you hurt someone's feelings, allegiance or who they're favorite guru tu jour is or isn't (read: absent of reason and logic - ie hypocrisies. When people don't answer a question - that is an answer)."
I question his compassion. He obviously is a fairly smart guy but also obviously throws much out in an authoritative manner which has you and others believing stuff which is not true. Where do you get "And, from a rigorous examination of (his/the) science get's respect from peers." from??? Got a link. I haven't seen any of that.
Here's your chance to learn (or revisit) some biology. One i picked up yesterday which makes clear Peterson is definitely not to science as you mistakenly believe he is. Take your time on it. Take notes. Be clear on exactly how wrong-headed, careless and irresponsible Peterson can be. Be convinced that at least on some levels Peterson says things to you which are demonstrably and unarguably not true:
To sorta sum myself on this stuff for you: Ever since reading a little of Norman Vincent Peale .. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Vincent_Peale#Criticism_and_controversies .. as a somewhat needy and searching 16y-old i haven't held much admiration for any so-called gurus. And later, as with Peale then i couldn't handle more than a few pages of Robbins and others either. On those couple and maybe one other i can't recall i decided early they had little to offer other than what i could work out for myself. And their simplistic rules and ways to approach and handle life to me felt more like mostly empty sales pitches than good advice. Nowadays, the tv evangelist preachers here early on a Sunday morning echo all the same old stuff. Some of them do a smart job of preaching as much psychology as religion these days.
Personally, I feel most people as you would be better off reading and listening to experts as Myers, rather than to self-help people as Peterson.
Now that you have digested too much of Peterson, give the same energy to critiques of what he says. As i did to find the video above.
