I know you're not resorting to putting words in my mouth right? If memory serves me all that happened in the Shepard case, was some student didn't like a video she showed,complained to the university, who held a meeting where they suggested she may have done something wrong. It was then passed up to an independent arbitrator that said that, the university was wrong to even have a meeting with her and she had done nothing wrong. So no legal consequences or even sanctions from the university at all. The bill in question did nothing but add gender expression to the protected class clause of the Charter. So it's as illegal as not hiring a woman simply because she's a woman. It is not illegal though to just say women shouldn't be in the work plac or not using people's prefers pronouns . So he was very wrong. I'm not asking you to detail everything he's said throughout the many,many times he's spoke, I'm asking for one specific thing he has said that you find "interesting," enough to include it in your world view. I have listened to him many times and all I hear is a whole bunch of words (personally I don't think anyone really understands him , most are just not intellectually honest enough to admit it) without him actually saying anything.

First, let me drop a little science on you (science is a credible method of finding truth, or the complete opposite of faith, the only thing you have to cling to) infinity is not a number it is a philosophical concept that isn't used in the hard sciences. Second, confirming that the core tenant of christianity is something that is known according to your math by more people then have ever existed and many of them, again by your math about two thirds of the infinite people that have lived in the universe according to your Bible (apologies if you don't believe in young earth but I seem to remember you arguing for the validity of Genesis) before the advent of christianity, doesn't really support the truth of christianity

Oh in that sense I agree completely. I like to say that, all people are equally entitled to their opinions but not all opinions are equal, and if someone is preaching hate, or even claiming something that clearly does not comport with reality reasonable people have a responsibility to call them on their bullshìt -

One must differentiate between beliefs and actions, what someone believes in the sanctity of their own home, I feel is beyond reproach, now when those beliefs turn into actions and those actions cause harm ie: burning down the branch davidian complex with people inside. I am quick to denounce I do agree that those with the most extreme views are also the people that suffer the most from Dunning Kruger -
Even his concept of a Judeo-Christian metaphysical substrate (besides just being nothing more than educated verbal diarrhea) manages to completely negate the fact that we know, Jewish and Christian theology borrowed extensively from Confucius and Zoroastrianism, just to mention a couple, and these philosophies predate christianity and Judaism by hundreds of years respectively.

So you're just not going to answer my question. Again, when the best you have is the rubber glue defense. Oh , sorry you call people perverts as well. Just quit pedo -
First, I agree David Suzuki comes off arrogant. Second, I never suggested that Peterson is a partisan hack nor do I believe he , or anyone else (save those that preach hate or are advocating for violence) should be "cancelled" Third, he was wrong about the law, to the point that the Canadian government released a statement to denounce him. Forth, what I did say is he hasn't said anything of substance since "clean your room" and speaks almost exclusively in word salad (high syllable word salad, but still word salad But I invite you to give me the specific wisdom you feel you have acquired from listening to Jordan Peterson.

None of the five senses can detect the supernatural and even if they could how do you know your senses can be trusted. I use empirical evidence, that corresponds to reality, what empirical evidence do you use that supports these "additional realms of existence" ? -

So , no methodology? I trust that you believe that, but you've provided nothing that I, or anyone else could use to confirm if your beliefs are tethered to reality. I don't think there's anything my "consciousness" is not privy to, as consciousness is simply a result of neurons firing. -
Because no one cares (or even understands) what a metaphysical substrate is. Petersons claim to fame was blatantly lying about Canadian laws and he just been spouting nonsense ever since (granted he does use some pretty big words in his pseudo scientific terminology) but still just nonsense. Now go make your bed (see what I did there?), just because you're a grown man that still lives with his parents doesn't mean you don't have to do your chores

Many here have very thin skin. DUI put me on ignore for simply saying that people that drive drunk, should lose their privilege to operate a motor vehicle, which was a comment in response to him bragging about the fact that he hadn't drove drunk in a whole year, and implied this was something we should celebrate. He didn't say he had stopped drinking, just that he was nice enough not to get behind the wheel, well at least for now.

Let me be clear I will never denigrate someone's beliefs nor discount any experiences they claim to have had. I think our impasse (in this case at least) is a question of metaphysics. I personally have no time for metaphysics because I consider myself a methodological naturalist, so if it's not measurable, observable and/or quantifiable, it is not part of my world view. I'm not saying that there is nothing that isn't natural, just that it doesn't factor into my beliefs. I'm not expecting you to give out any personal information you're not comfortable with, but I do wonder by what method did you determine that your experiences were of a supernatural nature or demonstrate these "additional realms" -

No, you just don't understand. Like Steven Crowder wife, you must fear god to show you love him. Hahaha
