      I feel like Dr. Peterson understands Aquinas definition of God in, "The Act to Be itself." But can't marry that with the idea of a Person who loves us individually. Which is something I've been contemplating a lot recently, as they on the surface seem to be opposites.

Because dairy and sugar now have different molecular structures, additives, things that intrinsically affect everything internal in some manner.

    I've wrestled with God, for 53 years.
    I thought I was an atheist, I headed a large secular organisation.
    Despite my arguments, something always nagged at me.
    In 2010 my son was seriously ill, he started having focal seizures and ended up on life support. The child in the bed next to him died the third night he was in hospital. Our son was in a coma, they told us he might not make the next 24 hours.
    I remember being alone and begging God to save my son, I prayed hard , I mean really hard, it was overwhelming. As I was praying I found solace, I found something that told me everything was going to be alright.
    This went on for 6 hours, I was utterly exhausted.
    The next day the doctors told us they were going to start transferring his breathing from the machine to my son, the process took 6 hours.
    On the 5th hour he took over the breathing despite the doctors believing he wouldn't.
    He came out the coma, he was blind in one eye and lost his ability to speak but over the next few months he completely recovered.
    I've prayed every night since.
    My son is now 16, he's 6ft4" and super smart. I mean really smart, confident and unbelievably fit and healthy.
    I believe he is meant to be here for a reason. Everyone who meets my son is fascinated by him for some reason, he's magnetic. He commands the room.
    We hear people say "that boy is going to change things" and "that boy can do whatever he wants"
    I believe God listened that day, he gave us such a gift.

The temptation to fill it with an um, an aha or even a further question or softener would be great... and Matt lets it sit. Exactly what Jordan needed to put the right words he needed to convey in place. One of the best interviews by either I've seen.

      I’ve been mostly nonreligious for the past 13 years. I honestly don’t really care about the scientific existence of God or having debates on whether God is real. I’m tired of the atheist nihilism and intellectual superiority. It gets old listening to atheists who think they’re smarter than everyone else. All I know is, when I went to church with my family this past Easter Sunday, I felt whole and fulfilled. I felt the emptiness go away for a bit. I think any atheist who would go to church, have a fulfilling experience, and then say “but science says Gods not real” is blinding themselves to enjoying life. If you can’t put your intellectual ego aside to do what feels right, then we just have disagreements on what we should do in life. Going to church feels good, and that means something. I think atheists really need to get off their high horses, it’s making them miserable (and it’s just not interesting to listen to anymore)

In those years I've felt the superiority of being "smarter than everyone else" until reality hit hard and fast you can't possibly look anywhere else for help. Then He revealed Himself to me, not in some hyper mystical sense but the hard realization that no one else can carry the full weight of our faults but Himself.
      I suggest you pray, honestly and without any reservation, to ask if He is real. I don't think He would allow any delusions jn your mind if you're honestly seeking enough.

    Dr. Peterson’s answer concerning him having faith or not is brilliant, because he explains EXACTLY what the council of Trent states when it condemns Sola Fide.

      @SamuelMoerbe 17 дней назад +10

      Hello! For context, I am a Lutheran who has listened to many hours of both Pints and Peterson. Friend, I would be careful with lines of thought like this. The way Jordan uses the word “Faith” is nowhere close to the Christian Tradition, including the reformers. It honestly feels like the closest thing he could relate to is “Pelagianism”, or the idea that you can climb to heaven on your own by pursuing the highest good. There is no space of “Christ for You” in his thought . What that Good is for Jordan, I still have no idea haha.
      The reformers thought of Faith not just as Intellectual assent, but as a deep trust. Faith for the reformers is a deep trust in Christ (His Life, Death, and Resurrection on our Behalf), and those gifts are then counted to us. They by no means proposed that the Christian doesn’t need Good Works or that Faith is a “mere pronunciation”. A major part of the Christian life is loving our neighbor and abiding deeper in our Union with Christ. However, that’s not to be confused with Justification. The two kinds of Righteousness (Before God and Before Man) are vital, but distinct. I want to be kind but firm in saying that your brief description of Sola Fide is a major caricature.
      If we want to discuss Justification, then let’s keep it on the topic of Justification, starting with the scripture that discusses it most thoroughly (ie:Romans 4). To bleed the conversation of Peterson into that conversation confuses the issue, and leads to false conclusions.
      Also, I have want to have some humility in saying that when it comes to the question of God/Faith, I am quite frustrated with Peterson. So in that, take what I said with a grain of salt, because I don’t always understand what he’s gettting at. Sorry for the long answer 😂.
      God Bless!

    • @legendman97
      @legendman97 17 дней назад +4

      @@SamuelMoerbe I don’t fully agree with Peterson, because faith ought to be intellectual, and enacted, it’s both things. I don’t think he is arguing that one can reach its way to heaven, that’s not the Catholic teaching either. The concept of sola fide comes with the rejection of the salvific power of the sacraments, and the cooperation with Grace through living a Christian life. Hence why James states that faith without works is dead, because we ought to accept God’s grace with faith and cooperate with such grace by receiving the sacraments and living according to Christ.
      The Catholic Church is clear that justification cannot be earned, salvation is a gift from God, whether we accept that gift is up to us, we can accept it and cooperate with grace in order to allow Him to save us.

    Newly baptized Roman Catholic here (just this past Easter Vigil -- thanks be to God 🙏), and I have to say this might be my favourite interview of all time. Both PwA and JBP have really helped me to get my head (and, even more importantly, my heart and soul) straight after years of depression, anxiety and addiction (+ leftism 😜) in the Orwellian hellscape that Canada tragically seems to be falling into, and I truly thank everyone involved in this production from the bottom of my heart. ❤
    In particular, I found Dr. Peterson's explanation of the staff of Moses very helpful, as I have struggled with witnessing the Passion (the more I come to know and love Jesus, the more it hurts to see Him suffer even as a reenactment, a sentiment to which I expect many fellow viewers can relate...?). Tying it back into the Old Testament was an inspired stroke of genius, and I feel like I deeply understand for the first time why God sometimes calls us to face the worst of the worst.
    I can't speak for anyone else of course, but this is my testimony at least and, as I continue to grow in the faith, I'll be praying for everyone listening and for the conversion of all souls to our Lord Jesus Christ. God bless 🕊

    • @TheRealMagicBananaz
      @TheRealMagicBananaz 24 дня назад +2

      Typology is the study of how the old testament relates to and is revealed in the New Testament. I highly recommend reading the gospels first, then delving into the old testament to find all the types that appear there. It's very eye opening; I remember as a kid relating to the old testament more than the new. It was more primitive in a way, and so closer to God. It wasn't nearly as cerebral. To the Israelites, God lived in the temple. To them, he was indicernable from the sacrifices and worship that the priests gave.
      That foundation really led to a blossoming of my Christian faith once I became mature enough to find the old in the New.

    Thank you God for Jordan Peterson, Matt Fradd, Thursday and all the PWA team. My life began to change through listening to JBP which progressed into Jungian psychology and eventually to embracing Christ through the Catholic faith. Everyday is a struggle but, although there are downward turns at times, the path continues upwards towards heaven. Sincerely grateful for the content you all produce which steadies the boat and keeps me right. I was also blessed to see Matt in Dublin this year and Jordan in Belfast. Thank you for travelling. I hope you realise how much these live events are bringing people together and changing our lives for the better. Eternally grateful. Ave Christus Rex ✝️

    “To be created in the image of God is to wrestle with potential.”
    Jordan B. Peterson

    • @JacobTheStrangeOfficial
      @JacobTheStrangeOfficial 24 дня назад

      Is this not a dissatisfying answer to most of the Christians on here?
      Being made in the image of God is much more than wrestling with potential. The reason Jordan defines it like this is that in his view, God is frankly not real. I know he would argue with that and say God is very real, but it’s about definition of terms.
      The fact is, Jordan Peterson does not believe in the ontological reality that God is a metaphysical being who literally created the physical universe, and was incarnated as a man via Mary and the Holy Ghost, was executed on a cross, and physically rose from the dead on earth.
      Without that, he will never get the full picture of living as the image of God, because it’s not just wrestling with potential: it’s confessing Christ and living as his vector in the world by carrying him with you through the Eucharist, with the goal of shepherding the earth towards God as God shepherded you towards himself.
      And that doesn’t work so well if God is just a psychological construct.

      ​@@maciejpieczula631No, bit the point is He could which is why He is such a great God. He could do whatever He likes. He could have slaves. Instead he created us, created beauty to share with us and to live in. He gave us free will so we can experience and He loves us. That is potential and using it for the right reasons. Satan is the opposite.

    • @JacobTheStrangeOfficial

      @@ninja3687 Are you saying God COULD struggle with potential? I don’t think we as Christians typically believe that about God. There’s a great quote that “the easiest thing God ever did was rise from the dead.”
      When we act as images of God we are living out the life he sets up for us, and mimicking Christ day by day. Peterson’s metaphor is insufficient because you can’t fully mimic Christ without confessing faith in Him and joining his church, which gets left by the wayside if he’s just a theoretical concept or a symbol and not a real man who was really God grounded in history on this earth.

      and then to blasphemy it is one of the worst sins in this society. That's why the Holy Face devotion was started to make reparation to be blasphemy and propagation of the Lord's day and Holy days of obligation. I pray that he can stop committing blasphemy and seek forgiveness for his sins and we can make reparation for him and all others committing blasphemy. I use to commit blasphemy and it hurts the Lord so much. I pray that he will come to the Catholic Faith as well. May he open his heart to God's love. Jesus, Mary, Joseph, pray for us.

    All this is to say that you, Matt Fradd, have produced one of the greatest, most insightful interviews with Jordan Peterson.

      I think it’s a common misconception that Christians believe so they can feel safer or to be able to cope with death. We believe because the reality of it smacked us in the face and you can’t REALLY deny it (even if you try) after that. You just can pick up your Cross and follow or live some sort of hollow zombie life of being comfortably numb. Or waver between the two as I have for years 😅

    Absolutely loved this interview. My first time watching Pints with Aquinas (except for a brief glimpse a few weeks ago). Dr. Jordan Peterson is a phenom and well worth the time. He is stimulating, probative and challenging. I don't see him as angry. He is very electric and intense. He speaks with an intentionality which is refreshing and at times peppered with intermittent bolts of lightening . Totally love his suit and have been smiling throughout the interview in spite of the gravity of the subject matter because of it. He gives a great sermon on how to be Catholic in the true sense. Hope to hear more. Well done Matt!

    Jordan Peterson cited liberation theology as an objection to Catholicism. But in 1984, the Church (through Cardinal Ratzinger, as head of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith) strictly taught against this theology. I encourage everyone to read the Church’s lengthy and beautiful statement on this.
    “The present Instruction has a much more limited and precise purpose: to draw the attention of pastors, theologians, and all the faithful to the deviations, and risks of deviation, damaging to the faith and to Christian living, that are brought about by certain forms of liberation theology which use, in an insufficiently critical manner, concepts borrowed from various currents of Marxist thought.”
    And, lastly: “The intense concern of the Church, the bride of Christ, for the needs of mankind, their joys and their hopes, their pains and their struggles, is nothing other than the great desire to be present to them in order to enlighten them with the light of Christ, and join them all to Him, their only Savior. It can never mean that the Church is conforming to the things of this world, nor that she is lessening the earnestness with which she awaits her Lord and the eternal Kingdom.’”

    • @ralfbettker-cuza7432
      @ralfbettker-cuza7432 24 дня назад

      @petem7146: As you cited, the Church did condemn "certain forms of liberation theology", not the concept of liberation theology itself (the name giver and "founder" Gustavo Gutiérrez OP is a good friend of Cardinal Müller, for instance).
      I did read the statement by the CDF and it certainly did distinguish between the good aspects of liberation theology and the bad ones.
      For those who are less into this subject and tend to hear only a black-and-white version, the first goal of liberaton theology is to make the poor a subject of the church instead of an object (of care or love). Many poor in Latin-American countries are Catholics, so it's not that "the Church" cares for them, it's that the Church is poor in them.
      This shift of perspective is important and positive - it starts becoming negative when trying to establish some sort of a materially just Christ's kingdom on earth with political means...
