Jordan Peterson: The Rationalists and Empiricists Have Lost

Jordan Peterson is a great intellectual public speaker who is often inciteful.  However, he views truth in terms of psychological perception.  He has no sense of absolute truth but views truth as subjective.  I think that this is a form of Relativism.  Followed to its logical extreme, a person could believe or rationalize anything.

In this regard, Jordan Peterson is not rational.  It may be that most people view truth according to their subjective experiences, but regardless of what we perceive or want truth to be, truth doesn't care about our feelings.  Ideas are either true or they are not.
