Earlier this week I read an article by Esther O’Reilly about Jordan Peterson being a “Noble Pagan”. While this particular commonplace book entry isn’t necessarily about Peterson specifically, it covers something she mentions related to Peterson’s raison d’être that caught my eye [emphasis hers]: In actuality, Peterson’s entire project rests on his view of the world as a forum for action. So quit play-acting and start acting, he exhorts. Set your house in order.
