Jordan Peterson: We Who Wrestle With God

Welcome to our bi-weekly discussion series on selected topics!

"The psychoanalyst is in a position to study the human reality behind religion as well as behind nonreligious symbol systems. He finds that the question is not whether man returns to religion and believes in God, but whether he lives love and thinks truth." ⎯ Erich Fromm (Psychoanalysis and Religion)

Instead of examining the truth of Peterson's content, we will examine the book as a cultural and historical product of our time. We shall discuss what Peterson is trying to achieve, what impact the book is supposed to have, how we are personally inspired or uninspired by the book etc.

No text is provided for this event. Please buy your own copy :)
You don't need to read the whole book. However, reading at least one chapter would be helpful for the discussion.
