I'm not sure why posting the text for the video we literally just had linked was you doing homework. Yes, we've all seen that video already. I understand English, and know what words he said.
This is a strange situation. You've taken the effort to quote him, but it's pretty obvious that what you're quoting doesn't mean what you think it means.
When you read this, do you really think that he's trying to bring back religion in general, or Christianity in specific? His intent is pretty clear, but you seem to be quoting it to support a different point entirely.
At any rate, are you just going to keep quoting rationalwiki's distilled quotes out of context, or are you actually going to watch some of the videos, in which Peterson directly addresses some of these points made against him, and clarifies his position candidly? Do you have any issues of your own with him, or your own ideas, or are you just going to keep quote-mining?
You have a lot to say for a guy who so far has watched a 1-minute video clip and spent about 5 seconds googling.
