Peter Thiel on Political Theology
Conversations with Tyler
Avoid Scapegoating
- Be wary of blaming God or others for everything.
- This anthropological argument cautions against ascribing all wrongdoings to an external force like "Mr. God".
- Thiel suggests that such scapegoating hinders our ability to understand and interpret the world.
- He emphasizes the importance of striving to make sense of the world through reason and intellect rather than resorting to blame or attributing everything to divine will or depravity.
- He draws a contrast with Calvinism, where human depravity is central, and with modern rationalist movements.
