The issues that plague our nation, and the discussions that are needed aren't as easily detached from one's own image/ place in society. The only one (emotionally) invested in this conversation is Mr. Peterson, but he thinks society is at the brink of collapse...

Everybody has a limit, especially around dangerous topics where a decieving headline about him saying something could easily come out. But he recognizes there has to be helpful lessons in mythology if it has persisted for so long, helped and shaped a very successful modern society and many even in the modern age of science and tech still believe in it. Of course America as a nation has Protestant Puritan roots so maybe it shouldn't be surprising it's still around, but Peterson realizes it still may have some use and lessons for society, even if it isn't a scientific peer reviewed work by any means

Jordan Peterson is a perfect example of religious truth or metaphorical truth. He may not present the "scientific truth" that Sam Harris does but he's helped way many more people that Sam has. So what's more "true'"? I'll go with Jordan Peterson because his advice is practical and can improve your life so much more effectively and efficiently. Sam Harris can definitely state facts but are they helpful? Not to me so much anyways.

Noopy "at 13.05, it was was good defeat of Jordan's and other guy's 'truth' ideas." No, it really wasn't. He completely missed the point as Bret explains just afterwards, and so did you apparently. Bret was not saying that it was true that porcupines throw quills, he was saying that there is an evolutionary advantage to telling *untruths* such as "porcupines throw quills", which is why we as a species have a tendency to believe things that aren't true. He explicitly said that the problem with this is that people end up believing things that are *wrong* ! As for Peterson, try looking up the correspondence theory of truth that you seem to adhere to and jump to the criticism section. It's not as simple as it seems.

The main point from Joe was that facts and wisdom are different things. And Jordan and other guy love to conflate them together into their weird definition of "truth". This whole debate is just semantic. These days when we use the word truth for an idea, we mean the factual/ empirical value of the contents of that idea. Not the utilitarian value or the wisdom of the idea. Maybe in older days it was different. But now the connotation of truth = factual. Joe says: Truth is the factual content of an idea. Utilitarian value of the idea is wisdom, not truth. "Porcupines do not throw quills" is a fact and hence truth. And if someone is told that "Porcupines throw quills", it is wrong and untrue, even though there is usefulness and wisdom in that non-factual idea. Peterson says: "Porcupines do NOT throw quills" is truth. And "Porcupines throw quills" is also a type of truth, because it has value to it and it has usefulness to it just like the former statement. Other guy says: The same thing as peterson, he just differentiate the two statements as 'factual truth' (former) vs, 'metaphorical truth' (latter). I am with Joe, i.e. just let the truth be truth guys. The factual truth. Give other words to other things you want to imply. Ultimately Peterson wants to say that bibilical myths have "truth" to them, that is a dangerous and liberal use of the word truth in its modern connotation and context. He can just say, bibilical myths have ideas which tell very interesting insights about how humans think..etc etc. But Dont hijack the word 'truth'.

This is not about facts and wisdom. This is not about semantics. I understand the confusion though, as they do not explain themselves very well. This is a discussion about what we are allowed to call 'true', and not on a semantic level. The issue is that even the things we held to be very very simple 'just let the truth be the truth' things have now been rebutted; quantum physics completely threw 'objective truths' in physics upside down. We have to understand that, in the time that we are in now, we hold some things to be 'true' when this will likely be altered or completely changed as our technological capabilities to investigate improve. There is an objective truth out there, but we are just human beings, all we can do is approach this truth. These approximations are the metaphorical truth; they are 'true' for now because this works the best for us now to understand, explain, and interact with our environment. These pre-quantum physics physical laws were regarded 50 years ago as 'true' as people regarded the bible 400 years ago. This is the thing about metaphorical truths. This is why we have to study them and allow space for them in our universities, why religion is so important. These are our 'old' truths that now do not work anymore, that are debunked. We should study them because it teaches us how to move forward, what not to do, and also why in certain truths are more important than others since they seem to survive more in history. We should also be careful about completely disregarding them, since they were indeed the best approximate of an objective truth we had at a a set time. However, as Peterson explains, even though in the past this multi-dimensional (or multi-layered, whatever you prefer) definition of the word truth was understood, we now only adhere to the idea that 'truth is truth', it is an objective thing. This is simply not the case, logically speaking. Also historically speaking even. This is the point they are debating. I am personally not sure whether I agree with this, but yeah this is what I got out of it. Quite brain-cracking.

As time went by, we got to debunk those "truths", while some would probably call it theories since no evidence was actually made/shown back then, but generally, they were believed to be the truth. ??? -Thank you in advance.

Man, I'd say as far as the whole point of this talk was - metaphors are indispensable. Their simplest forms are euphemisms and exaggerations, the most complex the archetypal stories. Some people foolishly split reality into truth and falsehood - like those idiots who fact-check jokes XD - this is a very arrogant approach, because it assumes that we have the capability to know everything about everything around us with 100% certainty, which is simply not true due to a number of factors, sensory limitations of our mortal bodies being just one of many. We benefit greatly from having the mental skill of approximation, and it is where metaphors come to action - they are the working-tool-truths. They allow us to talk about things we'd otherwise not discuss just because we don't know everything about them or because of a taboo. The ability to understand and talk in metaphors is crucial for advancement of human knowledge, and so is the ability to approximate - both of these skills the fanatical post-modernist anti-theists want to throw away, just because of the fact that it's mostly religious packages that those abilities came it.

Yeah I sort of think Bret missed the point (I said this in another comment). The archetypes shown by Jung are general enough that they can be applied across time even as circumstances change. The archetype or the christ like figure that Jordan mentions that stands up to the tyranny of the state is general enough that it can be applied across time even as the nature of the states tyranny changes over time. Because it is so general it can apply to standing up to a state that allows the enriching of uranium in the present just as easily as it applies to standing up to the Roman persecution of Christians 2000 years ago. I think that’s the main point, the fact that the archetypes in ancient religion are so general is exactly why they stay relevant. Their application may be updated, but values they present need not be. There’s no reason to codify enriching uranium in the Ten Commandments, application of the main point will cause the problem to take care of itself

"True enough..." "Metaphorical truth" While "truth" is a mapping function between a set of linguistic propositions and some value assignment, and a 'metaphorical truth" can obtain given the stated _a priori_ - there can be only one truth that is literally real - and there's a major problem with dabbling in metaphorical truth _as if_ it actually obtained. Fitness adaptation vs. accuracy adaptation, and the latter being our best bet at *pehaps* asymptotically understanding the nature of the objects of our perception. Example: "All guns are loaded." Metaphorically true. Sure. Literally not true, potentially. Probably. The actual meaning is "handle all guns as if they were loaded" - i.e. Jordan's "Live as if God exists." False positives like this are all fine and dandy... Until you need a loaded gun, and assume all guns are loaded... and happen to have one that isn't. TL;DR somehow, despite evolution being a heuristic mess of a process, we have an accuracy adaptation. It isn't perfect, it never will be. But not using it is the dumbest (and maybe the last) thing you might ever do.

Bret's porcupine example have an pre-assumed utility/goal function, which is "to survive, to be safe". but not everyone share the same goal/value/utility. it is always better for people to know "the truth that porcupine cannot throw quills", based on this truth, people can make decisions for themselves. for those who share the same utility that "to survive, to be safe", they will probably stay far away anyway. for those who want to take some risk or want some excitement, they will move closer. anyway, to know the truth is always better for decision making.

Truth is concrete and works on various levels. It is also seems plural. Many of these examples are examples of people compensating with limited truth. Everyone operates in these fallible ways because our brains are limited processors. Obviously a person who possesses more truth is better off, but sometimes we have to operate short of that because we have to deal with a complex life with limited biological resources. The porcupine and malaria examples are great for showing how a brain can compensate by using simplified thought patterns.

Truth can simply be defined as love. This can help understanding all living things. The animal kingdom follows their truth, human beings follow their truth often by using the tool of language. Language as a tool is a double edged sword, therefore human truth can be divorced of our instincts to seek love in a healthy minded way. This explains the mental health crisis. Just my opinion.

Beneath all the shade of questions and interviews, behind all the good intentions and motivations posed by these questions... these ppl constantly put peterson to the test, watching, looking, poking, waiting for him to slide. Setting traps left right and centre and swinging at him tacitly with mighty blows of opposition and sometimes contrariety. Like Samson against a 1000 soldiers he remains. It is beyond me the depth of wisdom this man has by quite frankly speaking what is truth. Clear, concise... unwavering and founded. Anchored upon every piece of detail you can gander across human knowledge. "for I will provide you eloquence and wisdom which none of your adversaries will be able to oppose or refute."

I dont understand Weinstein's comment about "thou shall not enrich Uranium" when the Bible already says "thou shall not kill", which already covers creating weapons, and enriched Uranium is the cheapest and cleanest method of power generation we have.

If you prepare for the porcupine with the throwing quills, you are prepared for the porcupine without them too. If you prepare for the snake as if it is a dragon you can handle both, but the inverse fails, assuming that the dragon has all the abilities of a snake, including its speed, and a great, fiery breath and tail and all.

This is a CONSERVATIVE conversation about religion and societal wisdom on truth that almost, ALMOST gets to why people on the left believe in internalized and systematic racism. Maybe the wisdom and ethics that we operate with now, partially built during a time when we openly had slaves while declaring ourselves free of tyrannical oppression, worked well for the US at a certain point, but people are realizing only in recent decades that it is bonkers to have a system that dissuades a third of the American population from trying to self-actualize because they're lazy or thugs or whatever Fox News would tell you. You may not believe racism is still a problem in America, but I can tell you people on the Left think it is and the thought-pattern is strikingly similar to this discussion. Like we all know the factual truth that white and black people are equal (or are supposed to), but that is not equivalent to people accepting the idea as prevailing wisdom. In other words, a metaphorical truth but a literal falsehood. "Yeah, racism is over... so lazy n-words need to shut up about it." This is seriously thought-provoking shit.

@@waltanthony1988 Buddy, you don’t think Noah built the Ark? He left the measurements and people have reproduced it today. Jonah and the whale isn’t outside the realm of possibility. It’s likely the story of Adam and Eve is a reference to early humans taking psychedelic mushrooms 🍄 hence why you have these very symbolic images of after eating the fruit they gain this knowledge of self. The priest in the holy of hollies would fill the temple with smoke made from logs and coals made of the acacia tree which contains DMT and mixed it with inhibiters. It was the law for him to wait until the entire temple was filled as the ark with the tablets sat. He slowly backed out of the temple and proceeded to have visions. None of this is hocus pocus. All principles firmly based in reality. Just because you can’t explain these phenomenon doesn’t mean they aren’t true. You don’t know what will be found. The Dead Sea scrolls were found by a Shepard searching for his one lost sheep when he stumbled across a cave and threw a rock and heard the rock hit pottery. The rest is history. You are viewing the biblical stories from a modern perspective, so when something can’t be explained in a objectively true way it’s deemed useless which is not only ignorant... it’s a shame. Considering how much influence The Bible has had on the very language we are using to communicate. It being the blueprint of all modern books. It was the first most widely distributed book in human history. It’s influence on language and spirituality is so interwoven into art and literature and culture. The New Testament completely sent shock waves throughout history. Even the critics owe careers to it. The Old Testament is so deeply ingrained into our psychological development is holds the secrets to the roots of mans psyche. Consciousness can’t be measured. Science doesn’t have an explanation for consciousness and knows little to nothing. It’s a thorn In the side for people like you. Consciousness was very deeply understood by the ancient mystics. The entire ideology of The Old and New Testament revolutionized the way people interacted and viewed the world around them. It’s a written river of human knowledge and every word has deeply thought about anecdotes from people throughout the ages trying to understand this sacred document. Your bitterness towards a Book shows that your ego has consumed your means of reason. If you can’t see that the Story of Christ has resonated with people for so many years since his death because he reflects the hypocrisy of us all. Everyone of us is represented in the gospel. The moment he flipped the tables of the money changers they were going to kill him. You know why? Jesus caused the rulings of power to see what they truly were. Evil, greedy, power hungry, immoral, full of hatred and envy. His existence was unacceptable by the existing hierarchy because if he kept preforming miracles the position of the Pharisees in power would completely be overthrown in the temple by a real man of God. Yeshua would fast for very long hours and we are told he helped everyone freely. Never accepting payment for his teaching or healings. Men like you would praise a shaman and claim Yeshua a fraud when the prophet Isaiah himself prophesied his coming. The same with the Magi who brought gifts to his birthplace. They seen it in the constellation Pisces ♓️ represented as a fish as the messiah is represented as a fish and would appear in Bethlehem. Carl Jung the greatest psychological mind of all time wrote a book called Aion: Researches into the Phenomenology of the Self In this book he breaks down Good and evil as a fact of reality that has manifested from our inner reality into our outer reality. Concluded by the synchronization with significant events in history and how those events in history correlate to the stars and the collective unconscious including manifestations of prophecy into reality birthed from the unconscious mind If one doesn’t recognize the self and the inner most psychic processes it symbolizes as autonomous one might mistaken those processes as the rational will. In that case the ego becomes inflated Even though Jung admits his concept of self is incompatible with science It seems none the less to be describing a psychological Truth. A psychological Truth that can’t be measured by science. It is an Abstract representation of ones psychological processes We must read the Bible or we shall not understand psychology. Our psychology, whole lives, our language and imagery are built upon the Bible. ~Carl Jung

The only thing defeated is you. You’ve descended so far into the Abyss of the material you’ve completely disregarded a piece of yourself and human culture and have dismissed as useless because you project your own shadow onto the Christian Faith. Christ didn’t come to preach religion. He came to preach The way, The truth and the life Manifesting our nightmares into reality. Projecting them much like sleep paralysis. The crisp dreams of REM spill over into waking consciousness. As the Antichrist spirit itself becomes a psychological process. The pendulum swings back. A psychological law. Satan as The Psychological shadow of Christ. He prophesied The age of the Antichrist. It’s here, we are in the Anti-Christian period. Known as Aries ♈️. 10And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in Certain times of the year we are told near Passover the energy of the stars allows the power of manifestation to be at its highest. This book on Abramelin the mage speaks in-depth about this.

It’s stupid to call this metaphorical truth. One should just call them “useful fictions”. It’s so much clearer about what they are. Believing that a porcupine throws spikes is a useful fiction. Believing that a gun is always loaded is a useful fiction. The phrase conveys both levels: that the idea is helpful, and that it is literally false.
