Pigweed and Crowhill both like Jordan Peterson and Sam Harris, but it’s interesting to watch them clash, as they did in their discussions on religion in Vancouver.
Before tackling such a weighty subject, the boys enjoy Crowhill’s latest creation, a dark German ale that uses a Kolsch yeast, but is not a Kolsch.
Peterson and Harris have a lot in common. They’re both well-educated scientists who know a lot about the brain and social science research on behavior.
But Harris is an aggressive atheist who seems to hate all religions, while Peterson has a warmer feeling towards religion. (Despite the fact people have a hard time understanding exactly what he believes about God.)
The boys discuss an article Crowhill wrote on his blog about Peterson, as well as other issues in dispute between the atheist Harris and the Jungian Peterson.
