Exodus

I was never a fan of Jordan Peterson's fields of study so I've never given him much credence, but I've always considered him intelligent at the very least. I love religious history and philosophy, so I figured this would be a good chance to kill two birds with one stone.

I guess it's time to reevaluate some things because there wasn't a functioning brain cell in the room from start to finish. This was nothing more than a politically motivated propaganda piece disguised as a pseudo-intellectual discussion.

The statements on atheism were especially bad, and the worst came from a top-shelf religious academic. How maddening. I was baffled that he made such assertions with a straight face. I hope he gets some backlash for misstating something so central to his field.

Utter atrocity.

The amount of time dedicated to explaining such difficult and meaningful concepts is evident in the work put out in the series. I feel like I'm closer to understanding some of these stories than I've ever been. Religious discussion and philosophy is hard to have in modern times let alone in such detailed fashion. From Genesis to Exodus Peterson once again managed to capture my attention with biblical stories and the substance produced by these series is truly profound and ive never heard these stories so thoroughly discussed. Keep up the good work!

I'm more confused by some of the trolling reviews which demonstrate no evidence of having watched the series at all. It's not an easy series to grasp at first. These are very difficult concepts. At least if there is criticism against the series it should be well construed, or at least creative.

Nothing of value here to add to any great theological or philosophical debate. Peterson used to base his arguments in reality but now is nothing more than a pseudo intellectual and grifter.

Anyone with any modicum of intelligence can see right through these straw man arguments An extension of Prager U's halfwittery for the indoctrinated and the non thinker You can slap lipstick on a pig but it is still a pig

If you had seen the recent series of discussions between Peterson and Sam Harris you will see what an actual intellectual sounds like (and I don't always agree with Harris)

Don't bother watching - will make the viewer more stupid.

This show is Great fun for bible readers and those interested in learning various perspectives of interpreting sacred texts.

The various scholars around the table discuss the text from their particular viewpoints. Psychological, narrative, Jewish orthodox, Christian, symbology.

Dr. Peterson somewhat monopolized the conversation through the first and part of the second episodes but thankfully he reigned himself in after that.

I do think the panel could use someone who is a more literal interpreter of the bible while also being intellectually as strong as the other members of the panel. There are people like this.

Peterson in typical fashion reduces the Bible to an incomprehensible allegory that has nothing to do with the actual text. Somehow, a group of old white men turn the story of liberation of an oppressed minority into a morality tale against liberation theology and pro patriarchy. It's almost as if these people have an agenda and don't care about the text.

The only party's that would find this "helpful" would be those who wish to hear their own opinions repeated to them. Peterson and Prager have no business near a Bible much less teaching it.

But by all means Republicans, listen to your favorite talking heads espouse why the tyranny of the left is bad, but the tyranny of an all knowing, all powerful, all loving god who created a world just to burn most of them for eternity, is good.
