Peterson's 12 Rules For Life, have you heard of this?

[Amarok]

Peterson is a bit of a provocateur, likely not as bad as his opponents make him out to be. I've never held it someone to hold a controversial opinion, especially if their intent is to engage in dialogue--which is exactly what his intent seems to be. I wouldn't call him all that great of an intellectual (Canada must be hurtin' if he's the second-best) but stood next to the vast majority of the internet, he's positively erudite.

Sure, he's got a beef with Marxism that I don't think holds water. Sure, he's an alarmist, advancing a false view that college professors are teaching kids dangerous ideas. But at the end of the day, he's ten times healthier (and does far less damage) than a backwoods Baptist church that squeezes every bit of intellectual curiosity out of the children who attend.

I actually like the 12 rules... especially the second one.

On that last point i would disagree i say he's more dangerous it's easy to dismiss the backwoods Baptists they are neither slick or charismatic and are easy to dismiss .Peterson is both and stands for many of the same moralist notions if one reads his opinions on hoe society should look . I don't think he's simply provoking for the sake of conversation. I think he very much wants to move beyond that and that troubles me .
