A few comments on this video and the accompanying video with Bill Maher.
First: Thank you for the link
If there is an entity that has the power and knowledge to create this universe, the Resurrection would be easy. So I don’t understand Peterson’s hesitancy to accept it. Interesting, Peterson does not focus on why there must be a creator of the universe. His expertise is the Bible.
Does Peterson view himself as Jonah and has an obligation to tell Nineveh what they should do? Maybe if he portrays himself as skeptical, his stories will have more effect. Interesting is that Maher focuses on Old Testament not New.
We are meant to have doubt. Faith is meaningless without doubt. Skeptics want a QED explanation and there will never be one. If there was, human beings would cease being what God has created and become automatons. We would be machines.
Yet, his beloved wife I believe is a Catholic convert. At least that is what a good friend told me.
Aside: maybe Christians should preach the simplest reason for why there is a God? I believe the cosmological argument is the best. From there go to the kind of God that exists. Intelligent Design helps there. To get to Christianity, one has to argue that Jesus was sent by this God. The Alpha program helps here.
Anther comment: Marxism and its most recent form, Cultural Marxism, is a red herring. Those wanting a different world and are in power are certainly not Marxist or Cultural Marxist. They are most likely atheists but anyone who focuses on Marxism has the wrong center of power in. their focus. I'm sure they are happy that a lot of people are obsessed with various forms of Marxism. It keeps eyes off of those who are the real power behind all the unwanted changes.
This video sheds some light on what JP believes.
