Peterson’s ability to discuss topics on such a high level that are so outside his professional field of study is amazing to me. What a brilliant man who can ask such relevant questions of experts in such diverse fields!
The understanding in higher ages was that there were fourteen versions of the human; to a uniquely human prototype, in a universal cycle. Maybe the aliens were here already or started it all on earth. The likelihood that other planets are inhabited may be the case. If so, their environment would be supportive to whatever form of life that they are. There appears to be an intelligence that fine tunes for life, and its needs, so it may arise and flourish. Darwin is likely wrong; humans evolving from a different species, not from its own prototype is speculation not science. Maybe our prototype is a five pointed star having five points, or extensions, from a center, as the human does. It has also been thought that we are the microcosm of the macrocosm; a miniature of the universe as a transistor radio is of a boom box.
That's what happens when you study something regularly, and then talk about it with somebody. Bc you have intelligence, can speak in complete sentences, and study and work with material.
It's practice. He could be a professor. In fact he probably was. So he spent years professing to a classroom these very concepts and was then tasked to place a value on students statements by their adherence to what was said. And it's possibly uniquely British.
I have been subscribed to Dr. Kipping's Cool Worlds channel for a long time, same for Dr. Peterson. I never thought to see them both on the same video.
The capability of Mr. Peterson, in being able to communicate his thoughts, questions, and ideas, astounds me along with being able to meticulously fight his natural inclinations to assume certain conclusions. I can only imagine being able to do that on even a level partial to that.
I want to say this was my favorite interview. I started studying Astrophysics in the Spring of 1996, at the University of Arizona, and it was RIGHT in the wake of the first discovery of Exoplanets in 1995. Many of the subjects discussed here (Dark Matter, Dark Energy, Large Scale Structure of the Universe) were challenging to my faith in Science and my Faith in the Bible. As a scientist I find contentment in learning how much we don't know and still don't know.
Hmmm, interesting. I studied biochemistry and biophysical chemistry and encountered no such incompatibilities or conflicts in reconciliation, not that means anything lol. Genuinely, how did you progress towards a reconciliation? Did you come to appreciate religion as more allegorical and ideological? Did your scientific journey challenge preconceived or indoctrinated notions of infallibility?
Actually, Earth is probably NOT the only habitable planet but it is the ONLY planet in the galaxy that a CIVILIZATION can develop technology. So why are we here if we could be in any habitable planet? Why are we so Luck? That is the Copernicus paradox.
You refer to your "faith" in science. For someone who alludes to your science education I find this rather strange. I can't for the life of me see why you would need "faith" in science. It is plainly demonstrable that science works. You don't need "faith" in it. Even stranger is that you then say you have faith in the Bible, an ancient text written at a time when people didn't even know where the sun went at night.
The bible mentioned no much, if any, about universe out of Solar System. There are unknown to human, yes. And this leads to the answer lies in bible? no! I am sorry your years in science fields went to drain!
Pity he " bottled" out with having a second debate with Matt Dillahunty! You must admit Matt " wioed the floor with him. Jordan's PR officer was heard ,(after the debate in the green room), " Din't debate him again, he's way ahead with philosaphy, and theological matters" FACT. Watch it if ya don't believe me! I lost so much respect of Peterson😢
As a non-scientist I still found this really interesting. All I can do is look up at the night sky in awe at the beauty and mystery of it all, knowing how it stands above all the dreadful things humans are doing to one another. Just looking at Saturn through a telescope years ago was mind-blowing, knowing that it is about 840 million miles away. Jupiter is wonderful too, helping to keep asteroids away from our planet. I do feel there are other life forms out there somewhere. Thanks for posting this thought-provoking discussion.
I'm always listening to Cool Worlds, Event Horizon, Fraser Cain, Sabine, etc. I like to think my scientific literacy is improving, if only by a little. I just enjoy the heck out of their conversations and videos.
👆these two comments 👎 Jordan Peterson isn't going anywhere, anytime soon. Too bad about your misconceptions. His podcast has so many intelligent people on many different subjects. Yous should listen and LEARN something. He's gone up to 8 million subscribers so ...
Dearest Dr. Peterson, speaking of fungi, and speaking of space, and speaking of science fiction, a number of years ago I remember you mentioned you were thinking of interviewing Paul Stamets. I was hoping you hadn’t forgotten and were still interested in doing so. The reason how come I’m thinking of that is because the real life mycologist Paul Stamets was the inspiration for a character in Star Trek: Discovery, and his work on mycology was inspiration for the rather beautiful and rather fantastic concept of the mycelial network in space that facilitated instant space travel. Furthermore the character of a fictional mycologist on the show was inspired by him and named for him. Star Trek:Discovery is on my mind because although it is woke as a joke, there is so much beauty in it, and so much of it spurred me to write my own books, and so much of my own books are my 95 Theses nailed to the door of modern (postmodern) science fiction. And Spencer Klavan got me thinking about Discovery when he brought it up in his latest, talking about how the propaganda of it overwhelms the story. And I agree with that. A lot of thoughts like always because I always have so much to tell you. With love, always, Ruth Anne
Just a pure pleasure to listen to this conversation. I wish I was smart enough to take classes with both of them. I would probably never leave the classroom =)
I so enjoy Jordan Peterson and his guests! It's very comforting to listen to his intellectual conversations in this day and age when people are so dumbed-down in education that they can not carry on any interesting conversation.
I have only seen a few short clips with Dr. Peterson, but I am a huge fan of Cool Worlds and Dr. Kipping. A excellent combination I must say, two smart people who know what they are talking about. ❤
What a wonderful discussion. Two of my favorites. The kindest and highest level intellectuals sharing thoughts on the universe and it's wonders and secrets is top notch content. Just what I needed. Thank you Dr. Peterson and Dr. Kipping!
David is on my short list of favorite science communicators. When you get into numbers in the billions or trillions our brains can't seem to truly comprehend it. We can in a way, but not in another. I was thinking the other day about the Earth's population of 8+ billion seeming like a big number, but then did some math and realized that if you had everyone line up and walked down the line shaking their hands, even if you did it continuously without interuption it would to you over 700 years to shake everyones hand. That is the kind of thing that makes me realize how uncomprehensible large numbers are.
Dr. Kipping and Dr. Peterson together!!!?? Wow!!! Never thought it would happen but definitely one of the greatest discussions I have witnessed!!! Thank you a million times for this!!!
1:01:35 this reminds me of something I've noticed being into gaming. Every so often you get a Minecraft, Skyrim, etc that seems to live forever relative to most others falling away with age pretty quickly. Some become a base for more games themselves, where mods built in and on top of the original keep the life of it going indefinitely. They aren't usually even my favorites but there's something going on with those types that most cannot replicate.
This is wonderful... All of Dr Petersons' talks around consciousness and finally he talks with someone who asks the simple question of "Why isn't there more consciousness there?"
This science fiction writer has been really looking forward to this conversation! Dearest Dr. Peterson, I just can’t wait to show you what I’ve been working on. It will be a while; traditional publishing is a marathon, not a sprint. And I’m a tortoise writer, slow and methodical, but I always get there sometime because I don’t quit. I hope my book will make you smile some day. Here’s a cherishing hug And Ruth Anne’s love
Had to do a double take when I saw this collab. I have been watching both of these guys for years. So cool to see them both togerher! Brilliant discussion!
Now this was a beautiful conversation of intelligence and is why I continue to watch your work progression Dr. Peterson. Way more entertaining than say maybe your social "experiments" that I have watched through the years, that I like to call personally - "The Analogies War" between people like yourself at your level of degree, youtubers, podcasters and influencers alike in the, lets say, the intellectual realm of conversation of things. This was way more refreshing, Keep up Gods work! God bless.
Erudite, fascinating and thought provoking as always. Keep on challenging the status quo Jordan, and providing such interesting content, always much appreciated, thank you.
@@neodhani Yes I’m with you 100%. The first one was revelatory for me. I’m aware of Tommy’s political bias but it was a view marginalised until now by the mass media and government and those that simply (and reductively) dismiss him as a racist. Even a friend of mine that thinks that way conceded there was a lot to learn from the podcast. All credit to JP for bring that to millions!
Great podcast! It reminds me of the original "Cosmos", in the way that Dr. Kipping can talk about these topics without dumbing them down for us in the audience. Making the science accessible.
Dr. Peterson, I think many of us would love if you brought on experts in the field of scientific philosophy that can elaborate more on the relationship between evolution and the fine tuning argument. A favorite is always Dr. Stephen Meyer.
@@MzeeMoja1 Then we are agreed! Let’s keep it real and let the pseudo intellectuals tie themselves in knots. I have great fun with them sometimes! One or two well placed questions and the games up!
I’m studying pure physics and mathematics, but every time I come across something like this I’m drawn toward the stars. And then I remember astronomers are all broke, which breaks the spell.
I had no idea this was going to happen. I watch both of you guys and it's so cool to see y'all have a conversation! Just 9 minutes in, looking forward to the remainder :)
The more we have learned how finely tuned the conditions on Earth are for life, the more I actually feel we are alone in the universe. It's not just about a planet being a certain distance away from the Sun, it's about thousands of other parameters and conditions being exact as well.
I have to push back on the following: I think it's the other way around Dr. Peterson. The crux of the fine tuning argument is that there would not even be any life to adjust to the environment (the constants and all) if the fundamental structures of the cosmos were not finely tuned as they are. Hence, the multiverse proposal. But that just complicates matters more.
The problem is that we search for life with the very limited 3 dimensional dashboard we call our senses which presents to us just a representation of the underlying „real world“. In addition we have this technology called language which puts upper und Lower bounds to our understanding and also puts a filter on our thinking. Everything points to a universe which consists of pure consciousness. That would make the question of „is there life“ only to one of degree not a mere Boolean one. If consciousness is fundamental then everything stems from what one could conceptualise as life. The possibility are so vast and our understanding narrow by nature. To even look for technology as marker for „life“ seems strange to me but also is the best we got so far because it’s a thing we know. The question is not „if“. The question is „what does it mean to be a human being“. What are we? We are so strange creatures.
100% agree! - a Christian PHD Astrophysicist and Jordan would be so good. Plus they are both Canadian. RTB_official @Mikhaila please try to get Hugh and Jordan together
Agreed, Hugh would clear up any confusion about fine tuning and firm up the proper interpretation of the biblical creation references in the context of modern physics.
Thank you gentlemen for this interesting conversation at the brink of human capacity and knowledge. That is just cool. Though, I am concerned a bit about the possibility of some theories being shaky with new discoveries, but if we expand our understanding of the truth, then be it. Wishing you all the best Mr Kipping.
Something that is not talked about very much is the idea that it may simply be dangerous to reveal your position to the universe and so you try to leave the smallest footprint possible.
Dr. David Kipping has one of the most amazing RUclips science channels!
Damn, havent watched JP in a long time, but Dr Kipping definitely deserves a full episode! Cool Worlds!
! He is the man! Love that channel.
I liked the “Cool Worlds” episode where he talks about a machine than can roll up space and get us through time much much much faster.

How refreshing to watch two really smart people have a legitimate back and forth. Big fan of both.
This is the most unexpected collab I've ever seen....but I'm here for it!
HAHAHA when i saw the thumbnail I thought "This is not a cross-over I was expecting."
An interesting cross over indeed
Did a double take, hard. But ya, wouldn't miss the interesting combo.
The understanding in higher ages was that there were fourteen versions of the human; to a uniquely human prototype, in a universal cycle. Maybe the aliens were here already or started it all on earth. The likelihood that other planets are inhabited may be the case.

It has also been thought that we are the microcosm of the macrocosm; a miniature of the universe as a transistor radio is of a boom box.
Same I was like WTF cool worlds and Jordan Peterson lol?
Easily the most comprehensive and interesting astrophysicist I’ve heard on any podcast. Well done.
I love how intellectually chellanging this is. Such a gift to hear this for free!
I'm having an EARgasm.
sometimes i feel they dont know exactly what they are talking about, but since i know even less, its very entertaining
I am just amazed when people can speak so eloquently extemperaneously on complex topics. Really a brilliant individual.
That's what happens when you study something regularly, and then talk about it with somebody.

Extemporaneously is a crazy ass word
Unbelievable this lecture is free for everyone. ❤❤❤ I am a big fan of Dr. Peterson since 2021.
I like this version of Jordan much better. Great episode
No biblical references and more listening. That's why I started to listen to him. Hope he stays original.
I have been subscribed to Dr. Kipping's Cool Worlds channel for a long time, same for Dr. Peterson. I never thought to see them both on the same video.
It's nice seeing Dr. Kippings willingness to spread science to the dogmatic.
This is a breath of fresh air and a new direction for Peterson talks. I approve.
besides the fear mongering of the birch gold ad
WHOAAA just seeing this. Cool Worlds is such an incredible channel. So excited for this
The most unexpected combo. More guests and topics like this please!
Without the logos at our center, the rest is just window dressing.
Dr. David Kipping is GOATED. Best communicator!
Sad to see this isn't getting as much traction as I feel is appropriate for such a great collab, hopefully it doesn't discourage more such content

Glad to hear you’re covering this topic
The problem is that we search for life with the very limited 3 dimensional dashboard we call our senses which presents to us just a representation of the underlying „real world“. In addition we have this technology called language which puts upper und Lower bounds to our understanding and also puts a filter on our thinking.
Everything points to a universe which consists of pure consciousness. That would make the question of „is there life“ only to one of degree not a mere Boolean one.
If consciousness is fundamental then everything stems from what one could conceptualise as life.
The possibility are so vast and our understanding narrow by nature.

The question is not „if“. The question is „what does it mean to be a human being“. What are we? We are so strange creatures.
