Put down your guard for a moment. It isn't the case that this Jew is 'out to get you'.
The Problem of Evil is a massive issue within theology, and it represents what is probably the greatest stumbling block for rational people who ultimately reject faith. Understanding evil is perhaps one of the most important things that anyone can learn in spiritual development and in an effort to improve their lives. Jordan Peterson seems to have become popular, at least in part, because of his insistence on addressing evil.
The wisdom contained in this single video is vast. It will require having some background in order for it to "hit", but I hope that it resonates with you and spurs your interest in wisdom you may have rejected on ethnic grounds. There is a great deal here which applies to the early parts of the biblical Genesis.
Skip to about 1:30 in the video to avoid the obnoxiously long intro sequence.
Logos refers to the Word of God; it is associated with reason, justice, and discourse.
This sub meets at the intersection of the Christian faith and the culture war. We are interested in lectures, articles, and arguments amongst ourselves that focus on the Christian life of the West, identifying our enemies in this spiritual warfare, and growing in the depth of our understanding of God and the faith.
We welcome argument, with the caveat that it must be respectful, and involve some effort. The focus here is on the traditional Christian heritage of the West, in its philosophy, politics, and culture. If you post something about politics, for example, we only stipulate that you emphasize its spiritual significance. Find a way to make it relevant to the spiritual concern. Thus, we welcome news related to the church and current affairs, and more theological content, as long as it is relevant to Logos.
General philosophical discussion is welcomed. Arguments are encouraged, but low-effort spamming is not. This is not a board for atheists to spam their favorite videos. If you're interested in a conversation, that is what this place is for. Please post the most motivating, thought-provoking and important things you find to better equip us in this cultural and spiritual battle.
