We Who Wrestle With God | Dr. Jordan B. Peterson
The Ben Shapiro Show
Symbols, Science, and Belief
This chapter examines the intersection of advanced scientific understanding, particularly in large language models, with the nature of symbolism and human cognition. It explores how perceptions act as micro narratives shaped by cultural memes and belief systems, while critiquing atheistic reductionism and discussing the significance of existential commitment in faith. Furthermore, it connects these themes to human evolution, the collective unconscious, and the impact of contemporary ideological conflicts.
