Dr Jordan B. Peterson reacts to 50% of women being childless by 30. ONS has recently released data saying that 50.1% of women haven’t had children by age 30. Why does Jordan Peterson think that women are having fewer and fewer children? Why are women having children later in life?

It’s the story of Jonah, Peterson says. “When God prompts you to say something, you’d better do so, or there’ll be hell to pay.”
Jordan Peterson on Climate Change Hysteria
9-minute video.
From the video description:
Jordan Peterson Exposes the Environmental Movement’s Flaws In this riveting video, Jordan Peterson, a leading voice in contemporary intellectual thought, critically examines the modern environmental movement. Peterson dissects the motivations and implications behind the push for drastic environmental policies, revealing what he sees as a troubling anti-human agenda. Peterson questions the vague yet powerful concept of “the environment,” suggesting it has become a quasi-religious idol for climate change advocates. He points to extreme proposals like limiting personal flights, reducing private car ownership, and restricting meat consumption as evidence of an agenda that prioritizes ideology over practicality and human well-being.
Addressing the economic ramifications, Peterson argues that such policies disproportionately harm the poor by raising energy prices and restricting access to essential resources. He critiques the hypocrisy of environmentalists who oppose nuclear energy despite its potential to provide safe, clean power, and reduce carbon emissions.
Peterson also challenges the commonly touted scientific consensus on climate change, suggesting that the narrative is driven more by political and ideological interests than by solid science. He advocates for a balanced approach that emphasizes economic growth, technological advancement, and local environmental action as the true pathways to sustainability.
Highlighting the success of free markets and capitalism in lifting millions out of poverty, Peterson calls for policies that make energy affordable and accessible, thus enabling broader environmental stewardship.

How I Left Woke, with Keri Smith
Interview with Tom Woods.
Keri’s substack: “Deprogrammed with Keri Smith“
Apparently, she became a Christian due to Jordan Peterson. As she writes:
Years ago, when I was first stumbling slowly out of my old ideology, Social Justice (or “Woke”) ideology, I heard a lecture of Jordan Peterson ‘s called “Tragedy vs Evil” in which he talked about the Biblical story of Cain and Abel as an allegory for two ways of BEING in the world.
Bad Therapy, Weak Parenting, Broken Children
Jordan Peterson speaks with Abigail Shrier. (1h41m)

Dr. Jordan Peterson speaks with best-selling author Abigail Shrier. They discuss her landmark first book, “Irreversible Damage,” as well as her latest publication, available now: “Bad Therapy: Why The Kids Aren’t Growing Up”.

Her best-selling book, Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters (2020), was named a “Best Book” by the Economist and the Times (of London).

Kill your negative thinking
Some sage advice from Jordan Peterson (11 Minutes).
Which piece of music was the first to “move” you?
Jordan Peterson and two clergymen are discussing range of issues here. One question that suddenly popped up was: Which song was the first that “moved” you, as opposed to the first song you “liked”? Meaning, which song touched you deeply because it transported some meaning?
The Bishop said, people usually know this, and he named something that was his first; I didn’t quite catch the name, but it was something modern.
I know exactly what he means. For me, it was this: Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 5, 2nd movement. I will never forget the first time I heard it. I was 11 or 12. It was as if the door to a different, better world had been opened.
