How to be a Christian - thoughts on Jordan Peterson & Jonathan Pageau
About this episode
Some reflections on the fascinating conversation between Jordan Peterson and Jonathan Pageau:
- Maybe it's not how to be a Christian but to realise how you already are
- Why symbology, developmental maps and archetypes become as many rabbit holes
- That the beginning and ground matters as much as the end and theosis
- CS Lewis and what he never quite got from his friend, Owen Barfield
- The way hierarchies collapse into the unity of all things
- How Dante and Meister Eckhart in the western Christian tradition help
- And more!
