Jordan Peterson: "The Bible is the Precondition for the Manifestation of Truth"

Secret-Agent June 9th, 2022

Dr. Steve Turley discusses Jordan Peterson's recent comments about the Bible on Joe Rogan's show. In the discussion, Peterson recognizes the Bible as the first book, the foundation of Western civilization, and the precondition for truth itself. Here, Peterson uses a presuppositional argument similar to that of famed Dutch philosopher and theologian Cornelius van Til. For Van Til, God and the Bible (as God's word) provide the precondition/foundation for truth, reality, intelligibility, logic, and rationality. Dr. Turley goes on to explain how religion is crucial, and because of this, we are moving from the madness and incoherence of secularism into a post-secular world.
