Then it's easier to understand how you came by your opinions of him. Quite a bit harder, if you'll excuse me, to understand why you wrote more statements about him than anyone else in the thread, though.
>> I don't believe he's on the level of any of those people you've put up him up alongside.
I agree with this 100% (and would bet my entire net worth that Peterson does too), did not intend to give that impression at all, and edited my comment to reflect that.

If he wasn't in my face everywhere I turned I wouldn't have had to perform such extensive meta-analysis of his epistemology. The problem with Peterson is that it's this aspect of him that's cloudy, and which frightens some people. His actual "teachings" as it were aren't really that interesting to me, but I fully support the pragmatic approach to self-help he promulgates.
