292. The Language of Creation | Matthieu...

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson
About this episode

Dr. Peterson's extensive catalog is available now on DailyWire+: https://utm.io/ueSXh

 

Matthieu Pageau and Dr. Jordan B. Peterson discuss the meaning of mythos. They draw parallels to the Bible as they discuss Adam and Eve, how their story relates to psychology, and its parallels to modern human behavior.

 

Matthieu Pageau is a Canadian author living in Quebec. For over a decade he’s taken part in discussions regarding religious philosophy and symbolism with his brother and icon carver Jonathan Pageau. This led him to write his first novel: “The Language of Creation: Cosmic Symbolism: A Commentary”
