The way it is when vegetation laden ... some of the tree is required with all the monkeying around that can be received ... to get something from the 'aves ... usually co dead to those others ... thus sacred processes ... codes? Some say a demiurge ...
OK since we are still human and prone to err, or Eire 've critical thought ... some authority believe that and thought from lo' areas are critical ... sheer madness is something else!

Had a Lab that felt that it couldn't be fed enough ...

The Jordan Peterson All-Meat Diet

Bonkers. I actually think he looked healthier a couple of yrs ago. He's aged beyond his actual years. He's only 56-57 and he looks like he's in his mid 70s. Too skinny, his hair has thinned quite a bit, there's a pallor to his skin that wasn't there when he had a healthier weight. He's looks undernourished to me (and I wouldn't criticize what he looks like were he not promoting an all beef diet. I wouldn't assume why, otherwise... but one can't help but notice he looks a bit sickly.) And maybe it's also something to do with spending 25 days not sleeping. That isn't even possible. More than a few days with zero sleep is very dangerous and can bring on psychosis. And more than that, a person can die.

Well, he and his daughter can do what they want with their own diets and lifestyles - but I don't think he's the healthiest advisor to the masses, as a psychologist or otherwise put it that way. I think it's time he visited one. Seriously. I don't think he has it all in hand, for someone who sells self help.

The article points out how he espouses the importance of scientific rigour. Selectively, I suppose.

Eat, drink, live and observe a bit ... if inert you could learn something ... what isn't good ... crap-O!

There's a place like that in PEI ... smells of the Sea ... ma Mere ... another pond to be ruined by great men!

John Emerich Edward Dalberg-Acton stated: "all great men are bad" Thus the German term "actun" (take note, attention) and let it pass no need to do anything ... and the commander passes down the row ... selective process? Is that theological or philosophical process?

The O ... do nothing .. watch ... how the clock ticks ... do no harm ... and yet time goes ...

I understand he's married. I gather his wife isn't on the same bizarre diet.

And I'm chuckling a bit about the 'diet'. Daughter supplements hers with vodka and bourbon. Dad gets all giddy describing the important variations between Perrier, club soda and hot water.

Also, a scientist of any sort, even if a "clinical psychologist", which in my mind, is about 1/2 a scientist, claiming that he hadn't slept for 25 days, when the documented record for sleep deprivation is 11 days, sounds like they've gone a bit off the "strictly science" path. He's a nutter. I'd still like to see he and my friend Dr. Kristi Winters, in conversation, rather than arguing ABOUT each other.

I wonder if she puts liquid multivitamin drops in his hot water. Probably not. But he may want to think about adding vitamin water (not necessarily the flavoured bottles...they don’t do much but quench thirst. I happen to like them.)...even just a little bit of extra nourishment, to his diet.
 
Why is “Tell the truth (or at least, don’t lie)”, rule number 8? And - at least don’t lie. What does that mean? “Spin” for personal gain is okay? That lets him off the hook, I guess.

Every rule before it is fluff, or self serving. He even bends the golden rule into a self serving one. Then...8 steps along... “by the way: tell the truth. At least don’t lie.” He’s no messiah. He’s an eccentric human being who happens to be intelligent. Some of how he’s using those gifts, I find disconcerting.

I have listened to some discussions and at times I cannot help but like him...as a quirky human being ... though I disagree with his politics. But as an international guru? No way! I think he is dangerous. And if he doesn’t eat better and sleep more he’s dangerous to himself.

He’s planning on giving biblical lecture tours after the book circuit, btw. While he writes a sequel to 12 rules. I listened to him say so. Red flags, much? So...with legions of devoted, carnivorous fans, that’s creepy. It’s a cult, or fast becoming one. Led by a tweed clad, nutty professor - how weird is that?

Well, no individual human being who exists, is a messiah. Collectively we all have a spark of divine in us to put to use. The problem is that he is acting as though he is. And people are following him, as though he is. He says he is not a collectivist but he is capitalizing on his dark energy, collecting people toward his vision. To his profit... And so I don't think he's a very good "prophet" either.
 

(Luke 11:35?)

I understand his pessimism - the world can be dark - but, he's preaching to people to have contempt for those ("leftist sjw" types) that strive for equality and a more universally hopeful vision - he explicitly condemns them and compares them with ideologues preparing the gulags (when I think it's his vision that leads more to that kind of thing) - it's his cultish MO that bothers me. But it's a slippery moving target - just when you think you've put your finger on it, he's off on some other tangent - so he won't take responsibility for it.

And then he says something funny, from his man cave, and you forget that he's a guy preaching to audiences several thousands around the world - many of whom lean far right.

And those times when you forget that he's preaching a political agenda (though he denies it) around the world, to plenty of people who lean far right - because he kind of reminds you of your old friend's strict but funny dad - he reminds me of that, too, sometimes. I think that makes him a bit dangerous. If he was just some kids' dad, no big deal. He might be a good one in many ways. At some point they do their own thing and don't follow everything he says. But a guru of the masses - preaching his particular view to a movement that hangs on his every word, is a different story.

Could he be 'the' anti-christ? Perhaps he should run for Prime Minister - and 'legitimate' his 'capitalization' of his followers?

No "he's" not the anti-Christ. He's another "me first" self help guru, among many - but with a right wing political thread running through it. I don't think what's motivating him is very Christ-like, though. Decrying social justice efforts - how is that Christlike? "Do the most you can for yourself and your family, and if you have a bit left over - give to the community." How is that Christlike? It's typical, even mainstream in that instance, but not Christlike.

I don't think he should run - that would be terrible.

Was that a profile of Just In or Jordan? Just In was born on December 25th - christ-like?
 
Justin Trudeau is a politician. He’s not shying away from calling himself one. It would be foolish not to scrutinize any of his decisions. He’s not Christ. Jordan is working behind the scenes (at quite a magnitude and pace) to influence politics and culture and how people think and what to think - nobody gets to vote for or against that, itself. Not that they should - but keep eyes wide open to what he’s spreading, though, and don’t just accept it. What I see people doing instead is taking whatever JP says as gospel truth - there are a lot of people who seem to worship him without question - and that worries me.
 
Anti Christ ... an alternate light to penetrate the common mind ... Par all 'eL? Normal is not all alight due to imposed naivete! The ordinary populace shouldn't know ... while the powerful crank the truth (hard attribute to find in flawed humanity ... logical fallacy?

Thomas ownian as sensitive to the injuries?

Nailed in the burying of myth, mythology and essence of soul ...
