    Michael Shermer Retweeted David Gorski, MD, PhD

    Main focus of our section on @jordanbpeterson is to understand why he appeals to so many people, how he's able to fill 5000-seat halls, what he's saying that resonates. Along the way I eviscerate his theory of truth. Much more. Good you're willing to see articles before judging.https://twitter.com/gorskon/status/1029939341064380418 …

    OK, then, tell me the skeptical take you've taken on Peterson in the issue. I'll wait. 🤔

        Do you address his atheist bashing? His "everyone's religious" idiocy? How about the fact that no skeptic could hold any of his unsubstantiated beliefs on Jung, metaphors, or God? Do you address his misogynist social conservatism? Does he have any ideas that withstand skepticism?

        Can you explain how this is different than dedicating an issue to William Lane Craig or Gwyneth Paltrow? Are you just riding his popularity?

        But not all the blatant sexism, misogyny, climate science denial and misrepresentation of canadian law. The stuff that made him popular. His poor misrepresentation of evolutionary biology etc

        You realize you just devalued the reputation of the magazine, right? You've dedicated an entire issue to a transphobic self-help guru. If I read it, do I get a free bumper sticker?pic.twitter.com/blMYyQu9Hm

        Forgive me, but this David Gorski Character writes like a cocky teenager. I’m going to take a guess: low status lobster?

        Everyone likes to eviscerate, I’ll believe it when I read it. It’s not like it hasn’t been debated for a really long time, I’d have thought Godel would have tempered the expectations that you can prove truth in a scientific way.
