Excellent article I get lost in a piece like that one. I like to pare it down to simpler terms. He is an "Expert" talking in his jargon to other "experts." He needs to use "Occam's Razor." I am content with my POV on Metaphysics as "this is the real world" and Epistemology as "use reason." Peterson has exposed for me the necessity to get your Ethics cleaned up so that you can use it to examine your Politics. Most of us fail to do this and therefore find ourselves in hypocritical positions where we talk the talk but don't walk the walk.

Peterson has an extensive and highly considered ‘religious’ position. He is offering much more than mere self-help: he is presenting a broader account of reality and of humanity’s place within it. He is synthesizing several philosophical, literary, psychological, religious, and scientific thinkers into a vision of reality that is lively and existentially compelling, especially when contrasted with the prevailing scientism of our day. Liked the article, thanks for posting. Marked it, will read it again. What a difference between this and the Pankaj Mishra's barking attack in the NYRB. Also, it helped me make up my mind about reading Peterson's book.
