No, and I suppose this response functions as a dodge to avoid making the concession that one of your listed "suspect arguments" has been addressed by JBP ad nauseam.

If all truths are relative, how does he know he's picked the right one? What criteria is he using? Utility? If so, how does he know his truth is most useful, if all knowledge is relative? You see how this creates an infinite regress?

Are you claiming that you have special access to the absolute truth?

We all have the capacity to reason. We'll never know the whole truth, but we all know an approximation of truth that is true enough to make predictions about the future, for example. This is a sufficient basis for reason.

I see you like to reference Sam Harris... if you listen to the <5 minute clip I posted you'll see JBP describe how one might map out one's oughts in nearly the exact same way that Harris does, proceeding from acknowledgement of the existence of suffering and moving away from it.

How is avoidance of suffering a sufficient epistemic basis for the square root of 100 being 10?

Why do you ask? Was there some controversy about that?

Peterson can't explain it. Anyway, I think this conversation has run its course. It's 4am in the UK, and I have to be awake at 7. Laters.

You don't seem to understand Peterson well enough to make grand proclamations re: what he can and can't explain. Your misunderstanding of who and what he is seems to be driven by an animus of some kind. Sleep tight.

If I misunderstand him, that's his fault (and yours), not mine. I'm going by what he has himself said and written, as was previously pointed out to you.
