#16 - 12 Rules for Life Part II - Book Summary
from Book Summaries by Wise Words · host Jes Oliphant & Tristan Alexander
12 Rules for Life is a fantastic book written by no other than Jordan B Peterson. As the name suggests, it is made up of 12 rules that he believes to be beneficial to your life. - https://wisewords.blog/book-summaries/12-rules-for-life-book-summary/The book itself has a lot of religious examples from the Bible as well as evidence from clinical psychology and philosophy to illustrate his points. The idea behind this is that due to the scientific revolution we have lost touch with any of our moral guidelines, guidelines that aren't quite provable by science but are no less important to the success of our society. Can you prove that killing someone is scientifically wrong? Can you prove that stealing is scientifically wrong?We need the bridge of both science and morals to keep society together and progressing. Stories hold an essence of truth, a truth that can't be seen under a microscope but can be felt by every individual. Peterson does his best to interpret why certain stories have been passed down for millennia and what can be abstracted from them in order to improve life for the individual and therefore for society.--If you enjoyed this podcast make sure to check out our other content on our other platforms: - Website: https://wisewords.blog/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wisewords.blog/ - Twitter: https://twitter.com/wisewordsblog - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WiseWordsBlogIf you enjoyed this podcast make sure to check out our other content on our other platforms:Website: https://wisewords.blog/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wisewords.blog/Twitter: https://twitter.com/wisewordsblogFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/WiseWordsBlog
