Human nature is the nature of evil. If you want to overcome evil, you must stop consulting with thoughts.

Well, we now have confirmation that Peterson has stopped thinking.
As for what thoughts are, how they come to be, why they would be evil, do not expect any argument being brought to light.
I suppose that if you somehow suppressed your higher-level thoughts to the point where you’re operating purely on emotion and instinct and need, then both “good” and “evil” would be meaningless when applied to you, but why would you do that? Anyone who didn’t join with you in doing this would be forced to treat you as a dangerous wild animal.
I mean, I get what he’s probably trying to say, something like just go with the flow and let God guide you every step of the way, so Satan will have no opportunity to influence your thoughts and desires. That doesn’t seem to work out all that well in real life for most people.
Well, I think I’ll stop consulting with you .
But then as I never have I guess I’m one up on you, Jessie.
And this is why religion is evil. It considers existing in an imperfect state to be a crime worthy of extinction. JLP is human. He will never not be human. And he hates himself, all of us, and everyone who has ever or will ever exist, because we’re all human. All fall short of the glory of God, and instead of ditching that psychological anchor and moving on with one’s life, they want us all to drown in the despair of not living up to impossible standards.
I, for one, refuse to hate myself for not being perfect. Hell, I refuse to hate JLP for not being perfect. He gives so many other, better, reasons to dislike him, anyway.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
