AD Harris/Murray/Peterson Discussion: London

  • This is the fourth video of the four-part debate that Sam Harris and I undertook in June 2018.
    Sam and I met twice in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, with Bret Weinstein moderating, for a third time in Dublin, Ireland, and for a fourth and final time in London, England. Douglas Murray joined the debate with us for the latter two occasions.

    Sam is a well-known Enlightenment rationalist, and a prominent atheist - one of the “four horsemen,” along with Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens (now unfortunately deceased) and Daniel Dennett. He believes (1) that our ethical systems should or even must be grounded in something other than arbitrary revelation or opinion; (2) that the world of facts can and should provide that grounding; and (3) that the grounding of values in fact can occur in the absence of much perceptual or cognitive intermediation.
    I agree with him with regard to point (1) but not point (2) and (3). I won’t present any of my argument here, however, because Sam isn’t here to respond, as he is in the videos.
    I have also written three blog posts on the Harris/Peterson discussions, here:
    1. jordanbpeterson.com/philosoph...
    2. jordanbpeterson.com/philosoph...
    3. TBA
    A note on the release of the videos, and their delay: Any event of this scale occurs because of the collaboration of many people, including, in this case. Travis Pangburn and his staff at Pangburn Philosophy, who organized and promoted the four-part debate series, and who incurred substantial financial and reputational risk in doing so (as nothing like this has been attempted before at this scale). None of us were sure at the outset whether Sam and I would manage a useful discussion, let alone four of them, or whether there would be a positive public response. In consequence, we didn’t spend much time before the debate series thinking about release (or formatting/editing) of video or audio recording. Since the events went well, however - appearing both productive and well-received publicly - we decided to move ahead with the production and release of the recordings. The team at Pangburn Philosophy completed the editing, in consequence. Sam and I agreed to allow the initial release behind Travis’s Patreon paywall, for a two-week period, after which we would post the videos for full public access on our respective video platforms, and release the audio in podcast form. The team at Pangburn Philosophy plans to use some substantial portion of what was raised through Patreon subscription for multi-language translation of their previously produced and future content (including these four debates).

      @@seanseah333 What I was trying to convey, is that while myth does indeed serve as a guide of sorts to what may be thought of as proper living, there are aspects of life (especially 21 century life) and the human condition that aren't really effectively addressed. And what I mean by that, is Christianity, for example, directs the aspirant to have faith as the primary source of strength and even understanding! when dealing with said human condition. But! Anyone who is or ever was a proponent of this ideology, knows that faith "alone" cant provide the transfomative power necessary for change! YOU gotta put in the work. The saying "God helps those who help themselves" has always been so transparent to me. Your helping yourself, is the only actual help you're getting.
      And then we have prayer. We know now as common knowledge, that the only ACTUAL utility prayer MAY have is strictly psychological at best. Because praying for the ability to control your temper, say, pales in comparison to speaking with professionals who can explain to you how to do it, and perhaps even why it may be especially difficult for you in particular!
      Christianity is seemingly more about deeds, rather than emphasis on a transformation of consciousness.
      And with regard to the "greater good" I'm not sure I ever really understood exactly what that's suppose to mean. "Good" whatever that means, should be good enough. Greater good sounds like needless hyperbole, and good itself is a seemingly relative term.
      And lastly, to Jordan's pragmatism. I say it's intermittent because he can make use of it to a point, but when it yields no definite conclusions, rather than saying "I don't know", he goes off on emotional tangents reflected in how prone to ideation he is; Then we have to endure abstract and convoluted concepts about the metaphysical substrate of our ethos! JEESUS! =)
      P.S. Hats off to you for asking your question in such a civilized manner. Not many can pull that off when discussing such feather ruffling subjects.

      I believe he tries to help us believe in the infinite as distinct from the finite. For some people that might be God: for others Gaia. The important thing is its transcendent nature.

    I have much love for the both of these men and I want to say that I very much thoroughly enjoyed this dialogue. It’s very interesting to see both sides of life and perception come together as one to discuss an issue which can create a monumental movement which I believe is the one to revolutionise the way we live our daily lives and treat one another - the next giant leap for mankind and humanity itself. To witness this in my lifetime here on Earth astounds me, second to having the ability of understanding this highly intellectual and challenging level of discussion with the two having both great admiration and respect for another is something so rare that it has compelled me to write this which i think is extraordinary. Much peace and love to the both of these human beings and I hope I would be able to see more. The light in my room is not so dark after all.
    Thank you and Kind Regards.

      @Naurius I appreciate your input. I'm sure you could imagine, being my age I have had many of my own positions on a plethora of subjects. To say I agree with someone does not mean I don't have my own thoughts on the subject. A good example would be, I have a fair understanding of Quantum Mechanics, I tend to lean more towards m-theory being a good explanation for the linear time conundrum. However, many people think string theory is a better solution. String theory holds much of the same constraints as m-theory but the theory comes to an entirely different conclusion in regards to linear time. At the end, you can't argue that people such as myself and people that believe string theory don't believe in Physics. The presumption is a given, considering they are contemplating a theory housed within the confines of a parent subject, Physics. The same can be concluded in regards to my beliefs, just because I agree with someone on a topic doesn't mean I haven't thought about the topic on my own...it merely shows I have thought extensively and inevitably came to the same conclusion as the person I'm praising.

      In my early neuroscience courses, we went over a large swathe of material. First, we studied "how" neuroscientists study the brain, evolution, energetics, the ten-percent myth, neurons and the chemical basis of brain signaling, perceptions, illusions, pain, movement, etc.
      Halfway through my first course, we went over memory, learning, self-control and willpower, stress and adaptation. We then focused on infancy, early development, aging, genes, environment, etc.
      Basically, we started out learning the fundamentals. Halfway through, we focused on neural circuit motifs, kinesins, R-C circuits, Binomial distribution, Poisson distribution, calculating neurotransmitter release probability, signal transduction, tyrosine kinase signaling, etc. etc.
      I had a lot of fun taking those courses, but I will be the first to say I am no expert on the subject.

    By the way, if you are a true follower of Peterson then take his advice from 12 Rules. Rule 9 - "Assume that the person you are listening to might know something you don't." From what I see in these comments most of his followers are lazy in thinking and don't actually take his messages to heart.

Almost all of their audience is overlap even before they ever met, at least before Peterson got so big. Now they tend to just fill each other's gaps, which is why I like their conversations so much.

      No but something has got to give and it seems that Harris is losing people. I've listened to this guy enough but eventually I'm gonna come to a conclusion. The conclusion is that Harris is either willfully ignorant to Petersons challenges or he truly is limited in how he thinks which is ironic considering the slandering hes given to Petersons stance on things. Hell he gets annoyed when Peterson just attempts at coming to bring up important questions. Hes condescending. Harris is simple minded he isnt here for the same reasons Peterson is here. Peterson is interested in finding answers, interested in what Harris has to say on what he thinks and what he thinks upon what others think, and then comes to his own understandings. I dont for one second believe Harris even opens his mind to the idea of seeing things from Petersons perspective. Or even thinks much about Jordan's words as something even remotely credible when he goes home after these talks. It's spelled out completely in the way he speaks. He acts like hes an expert on everything when it comes to religion and fluffs off everything Peterson is saying, as if all of it can be answered in just a few minutes, like it's so clear cut. His answers are shallow and pander to the cliches that atheists have found themselves repeating for years.
      People HAVE taken Petersons words to heart, they HAVE listened and even turned against Jordan harshly through listening to Harris on some occasions but it seems to me that Jordan keeps managing to pull people back to what hes trying to figure himself. It's his whole demeanor, the humble way he presents himself. Jordan is more willing to have a conversation, open and honest. Harris is there simply to win. And their is no value in winning for the sheer sake of it is there? I dont think their is much value in that no I dont

      These men on this stage all are bearers of a purer strain of alien DNA than most of humanity. This is why they have the ability and courage to look into the void and find illumination rather than a frightening chimera. This is what is required through willpower and desire to see is that essence of what we are was never born and so will never die. An "A-Theist," (one who rejects the monotheism doctrines of theism) simply and linguistically means that they have found the concept of theism outmoded for the exceptional consciousness, while in possession of a passion to see the final truth of being is the penultimate attainment in the spiritual life. It is not negating at all. It is beyond all realms of rationalism. And no attainment can be made through rational thinking. Sunyata comes to those who has suffered so much that they become anxious to let go of the shedded snake skin that we call THE EGO, but you can never let the sacred breath escape your own lips. And to have this attainment, we must live in two worlds thereafter. One world is pure merging with the unknowable vitality of everything there is, all with their own consciousness which has now become your consciousness. The other life that must be lived simultaneously is that of the "Work-a-day world where you have a stake in outcomes, but you pursue those outcomes with a compassionate heart.

    A point relevant to Jordan Peterson's "Auschwitz guard" story. My father was a teenager during the nazi occupation of Athens, and he was telling me that one of the most chilling experiences he had, was of an SS officer kicking an obviously very ill, starving man who was lying on the pavement. It was chilling because there was nothing evil about his face: he was a handsome man, with a smile of innocent joy during all this. He was genuinely having innocent fun, in his mind. And it is so chilling because it is so far removed from our established experience of acts of good and evil. A criminal who looks like one and speaks like one, you can deal with. A man like this, that looks like the guy next door, and is not conscious of the pure evil he embodies, is much harder to come to grips with.

      I actually have started to understand that insane podcast between Jordan and Sam where they kept talking about truth. Specifically, I think I see why Jordan refused to give a simple definition for truth. Sam is too concerned with being "factual" instead of "truthful." This is a distinction that I knew about but didn't have these two words for until I heard them described by Michael Malice. For a great example, I recommend an internet search for the dangerous chemical "dihydrogen monoxide" to see how easily facts can diverge from the ultimate truth (about water).
      The oversimplified argument goes something like this:
      Sam: "Is Christianity 100% true and is there God? I say 'no'."
      Jordan & Douglas: "That's actually irrelevant. We have 'bigger fish to fry', so to speak."

    Sam's biggest problem is this entire exercise is his refusal to work on his theoretical framework in the confines of the world AS IT IS. Instead, he thinks he can create a framework within a world filled with people who are apparently entirely open to having their worldview altered on his command.
    In the discussion of the principles extracted from the Mesopotamian god, Marduk, for example, Sam discards the entire process by which the principle of the king being subordinate to an even higher power was actually formed. Instead, Sam simply asserts that a society COULD be formed in which the "king" COULD "easily" accept that he is completely dependent on everyone else. Yes, Sam, that "could" happen. In reality, however, it simply hasn't occurred. So, maybe, it's more likely that a deeply engrained belief in a higher power is a more effective way of preventing a tyrannical ruler from creating hell on earth than, say, hoping that a ruler will simply adopt the Sam Harris "king-serf co-dependence ruling ethic"...?

      Seems like an example of Hume's classic "is-ought problem" or "guillotine"; the propositional switch from what IS to what OUGHT to be, as Hume defines it, requires a commensurate explication and justifiable reason as to why this new-ought statement should be so - and, importantly, how it can be a deduction from the IS when the two dwell in two separate deductive worlds.

    Even after four discussions Harris still spent way too much time projecting his assumptions of Peterson's religious beliefs onto Peterson. Rather than, acknowledging Peterson's position is not that of a "typical" religious person, and then working together to hash through the real stuff Peterson alluded to each time, but was never really able to get to. You'd feel Peterson trying to go there and Harris would interrupt saying it was "changing the rules." Meaning he's still not comfortable with thinking about Peterson's ideas as they don't come from that of a "typical" Christian. Hence one of the reasons we're all watching.

    • @franklincapitalanddevelopm2251
      @franklincapitalanddevelopm2251 4 года назад +13

      @Richard Muenzer and Mr. Espriella I make this reply to both of you not as a criticism in any way. Mr. Peterson does not give a yes no reply about whether he "believes God exists", and states he lives as if God exists. So it may seem like he is being evasive, but I would like to offer my understanding to the both of you. I do not believe that anyone has direct evidence of the existence of God. Even people that profess a belief in the existence of God. People that believe in the existence of God believe that by being maximally inclusive of all evidence that it is overwhelmingly dishonest to claim that God does not exist. The evidence is so convincing that they claim with honesty that they believe that God exists. It is their personal perspective of God's nature. However, personal perspectives of God's nature differ as everyone knows. So it is not a simple matter to ask someone if they believe in your personal perception of what you understand as the definition of God. Perhaps insight into what I am explaining can be found in learning that discuss that intractable relationship between humbleness and understanding. Mr. Peterson is extraordinarily consistent in this as he highlights his humble approach to daring questions of definitive conclusion of God's existence. Instead he opts to maintain honesty above all and cautiously warns of any person recklessly claiming a universal understanding of the nature and existence of God. So he allows the evidence to guide him, and thus far it overwhelmingly inspires him to live as though God exists.

      @
      dagem abebe
      Rather than religious, I would say that there's a certain "spirituality" about those things. Jordan usually mentions the weirdness about people going to museums and looking at paintings, I had also thought about that before. I think if you begin to question why do we feel attraction to, for example, music; what makes some sounds better than others, the same with paintings, you see that there's no obvious reason why that is.
      After thinking about it for quite a while, I think that the main commonality among those apparently irrational attractions is harmony. We have a preconfigured attraction for harmony in colors, sounds, and shapes. The more complex and sophisticated that harmony is, the stronger is the tendency to generate that attraction; you can see that with thousands of people watching a person play an instrument, for example. But why we have that propensity and from where the artists take it from is a mystery.

Are there insanely dogmatic atheists and secularists, of course. but they are much less likely to be dogmatic than a religious person. It may not seem that way when there's screeching SJWs, authoritarian leftists, equality of outcome socialists, but be rest assured, the world as we know is not getting worse, it's getting better. And the world as we know it is not get more religious, it's getting less religious. it's no coincidence. If you can admit that it's possible to be religious and not be dogmatic, than you can admit that it's possible to not be religious and also not be dogmatic. I being dogmatic is the fundamental problem. So if you forego dogmiticism with or without religion, what's the point of an irrational belief in divine revelation. Most people describe the moment they are living in as getting worse, the world is scary and always changing. But we KNOW for certain the by every metric the world is getting better, on average.....religion will continue its rapid decline, the world, and the well being of those occupying it will continue to improve as a direct result, and like all of human history, those present in the moment will feel as though the entire world is about to collapse. Socialism is coming...be afraid...communism is coming....be afraid.....sharia law is coming...be afraid. They are popping up here and there but that cant hold up to secular liberalism. This is the kind of progress that cant be stopped. Dogmatic religious people and dogmatic non religious will all slow the progress and cause great suffering along the way, but in the scope of time and history, religion, and the immense dogma that comes with it will fade further and further away and the well being of everyone, on average, will inversely get better and better.

    One of the greatest flaws in Harris's argument is the idea that the purely rational mind cannot be dogmatic. That's obviously wrong. Rationality is dogmatic in the handling of the irrational. To a mind that only follows logic and reason, the illogical and unreasonable are intolerable. Now, why is this a bad thing, you might ask? As Harris himself has repeatedly mentioned, we don't fully understand ourselves, the universe, or the extent of our potentials, like babes with no inclinations of the men they might become. The rational mind, not being omniscient, is fundamentally limited by the facts available, not the totality of the facts. This means that if humanity as a whole adopted the main pillar of his message today (and the only one worth bothering with since the rest is hyper-critical nihilism mixed with watered-down Buddhism and a heavy touch of blissful ignorance to the nature of man), that rationality must supersede metaphor and values must arise from facts, our idealistic understanding of the world and each other would come crumbling down and all the truly irrational or, as I would like to believe, beautiful ideas we've come up with like human rights, universal morality, inherent freedoms, and equality under the law would necessarily come into doubt and potentially vanish. Most of what we know doesn't necessarily supports those ideas and plenty of what we know downright refutes them, e.g. differences in IQ between races, physical and behavioral differences between men and women, the economic and societal value of the wealthy as compared to the poor etc. How we try to act in the West is beautiful and good and the best possible route for humanity but fundamentally irrational on an individual or even societal basis. No amount of waffling about subjective experience and universal consensus over right and wrong can change that. His hopes that we can preserve the illogical, unreasonable, yet beautiful and necessary aspects of our culture until we prove them factually true is naive and all too irrational. The fact he rarely acknowledges that shows the limit of his thinking.

      Also, if reason prevails as the only valid way to understand anything, what would we do, when (not if) two rational people disagree on a important topic?
      JP also says (something like) one of the reasons Harris can make sense of anything, is that he has a (unacknowledged ) religious/cultural background shaping his value system.

It's ironic Harris doesn't get he's setting himself up for a self-defeating point should he ever get push on it. I'm mean logically, why would the rationality of an affluent American Midwesterner be the same as a impoverished South-Asian Indian? Unless you believe Western reason is transcendent, then even in his new world, fundamental differences in interpreting the world will exist. They'd just be less Christian vs Muslims and more Vulcan vs Romulan.

      "In the grand scheme of things, as evolution works on populations and not individuals, the emphasis on the individual might be totally misguided." When we talking about human beings, the individual human being is the moral agent, not the species ! To deny the freedom of the individual human to make moral decisions on his or her own behalf is to make that particular tyrant who denies this freedom of the individual responsible and ACCOUNTABLE for everything that happens to the individual.

      Don Oby Peterson said it well when he said what Sam values more than anything besides truth is logic, and logic is based off of what exactly? Sam Harris once compared innocent drone strike casualties to people being killed by a car accident. It was disturbing, to see this champion of logic fail so miserably to use what he supposedly cherishes the most. And to say it with such confidence just like someone would say the earth is round. The belief that I am using logic so you must be wrong is a terrible one and it only creates blind spots in deciding making. I once heard a religious person ask a atheist how he deals with cognitive dissonance and he answered I’m not religious so I don’t have any and laughed the rest of the room laughed too. That’s another example of people who use logic are really dishonest even to themselves. To a person like Sam Harris logic is their god. And it fails them miserably look at how happy Sam is and how happy Peterson is. Sam looks like he’s had the soul sucked out of him years ago. Does it surprise you that a snuffalupagus looking guy like Harris would believe there is no god?

The fact that they disagree in some fundamental ideas and the fact that they are still willing to have a civilised discussion about it , it's amazing by itself.
