Catholic Theology Show Jordan Peterson, the Bible, and the Search for Meaning w/ Dr. Christopher Kaczor
How can Catholics engage with Jordan Peterson’s ideas while remaining rooted in the faith?
Today, Dr. Michael Dauphinais talks with Dr. Christopher Kaczor, Catholic philosopher, author, and Professor of Philosophy at Loyola Marymount University, about his book Jordan Peterson, God, and Christianity: The Search for a Meaningful Life. They explore how Peterson’s moral reading of scripture has sparked renewed interest in the Bible, even among atheists, and reflect on the universal relevance of stories like Cain and Abel. They also discuss the limits of Peterson’s theology and his ongoing journey of faith.
