Re: Jordan Peterson
alphus and Omegus, I have wondered about emotional instability on Petersons part. I am sorry to hear of his rightward slide of the sort you are pointing out.

Re: Jordan Peterson
in my opinion, Peterson ended up on the public stage for being at odds with his university and laws regarding gender pronouns. He put his views out there via YouTube rather than being pushed in to public view, saying something about his personality and intentions. His field likely influenced his vi...

Re: Jordan Peterson
My guess is that most of us are not his target audience anyway. He is a cultural critic. If he were a Marxist cultural critic, no one here would even know who he is. It is because he dared to oppose publicly the illiberalism of leftists these days, and was kind of a prick about it, that makes him a...

Re: A Trans War Is Targeting Tomboys Like My Daughter
I was wondering if people read the open post. It proposes that there is a natural spread of interests children have which may not fit into the social categories societies assign for boys and girls. It is well to just allow for that variety as a good thing.(I agree with that idea) Then it proposes th...

Re: Jordan Peterson
from a rather level headed article in the New Yorker, https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/03/05/jordan-petersons-gospel-of-masculinity "Peterson seems to view Trump, by contrast, as a symptom of modern problems, rather than a cause of them. He suggests that Trump’s rise was unfortunate but inevi...

Re: Trump calls for Peace in Ukraine
So is Trump about to go to Russia and tell Putin to get his armed forces back inside Russia and stop this war?

Re: Modern Miracles - David McKay's "Gift of Tongues"
stem, You could be simply wrong in this idea that god intends plenty to end up in outer darkness. You picture god as devoid of love and just tricking people in order to injure them. I suppose we can treat mormonisms outer darkness as traditionally Christian’s hell. If god does not intend to send pl...

Re: Modern Miracles - David McKay's "Gift of Tongues"
I'm not sure I follow you here. Yes, I think we sometimes feel like we have free will and can choose anything we want, but also, at times, circumstances just plain exist and limit our choices. I don't think it is all that different for God. Yes, he would love to save everyone, but when dealing with...

Re: Wild caught salmon Q&A
What's wrong with them not eating fish? If we don't eat fish, they will multiply unchecked until they displace so much sea water that the oceans flood our continents and the fish rule supreme. I wish this fantasy was closer to the truth for trout in mountain streams. My fish eating has mainly been ...
