I don’t recall Dr. Peterson actually stating that he is a Christian. I have only listened to a what is likely a small portion of what he has said, but I seem to recall him saying he was on a journey to find out if he was a believer. He did say, however, that he LIVES his life as if God is real.

Well, Judy, I think you are correct.

That said, I think he might have come to the conclusion that, as a scientist, he should remain objective in a professional manner despite what he may believe in his heart of hearts.

Peterson is an honest man and has studied this subject (of faith).

As you and I know, it is impossible to walk away from an analysis of Christ and not be a believer.

I think Peterson is playing it down for the sake of his profession...and for once, I think that might be a good thing.

Hope all is well with you in this Holiday Season. Much love from here.

He doesn’t, and he isn’t. He does understand it, and recounts a very interesting narrative where he almost made that internal committment. He occupes that spiritual space where the knowledge is there and his committment is withheld. A dangerous place.

BS. What a laugh. The amount of PR lavished on that nebbish is staggering.
