Great portrait picture. It captures the earnestness of the man.
I'm really glad to see someone raising awareness of his work. He has brought together so many strands for me. I've watched his lecture series on Maps of Meaning and PersonalityTransformations for 2016 and then the much improved 2017 lectures.
The reasoned connection between biology and religious symbolism is like a breath of fresh air upon the discussion of the purpose and practice of religion. Imperfect as it is, it has served us for millenia.
Contemplating this the other day, it may be that we have gone through a transformation of mind and spirit, but it hasn't as yet become conscious to us. When I see Jordan Peterson speaking to large audiences of men who are soaking it all up like a sponge, I get the feeling that he has begun that process of bringing that transformation into the consciousness of our age.
I am yet to go into the same depth of his lectures as you have, but reading your comment makes me extremely excited. Religion, as you say, has served us for a long time, most of us totally unaware of this fact. Peterson is shining some light on this, and his modern religious view point is like you say a breath of fresh air. I can't wait to continue this series.
