"If you think you are a Christian you are wrong, he says, because your mind ahs been bent & shaped & molded by a pagan, polytheistic past stretching back into the unfathomable abysm of time." You see the problem with that?https://twitter.com/amconmag/status/989708213787357184 …

According to Peterson’s epistemology, ideas have no value apart from their evolutionary utility to humans. He assigns a utilitarian value to belief in God. Whether God actually exists, therefore, is a pointless question. Truth = whatever we “need” to believe based on evolution.

Of course, even if one accepts Peterson’s dubious epistemology, his hubris in thinking that he is competent to judge the present and future utility of ideas based on his own (necessarily ideological) perception of our evolutionary trajectory is problematic.
