Jonathan Pageau - Luciferian Spirituality is coming. Liberating ourselves from ourselves.

[@Tara-zq3il]

he led me back to Catholicism after atheism, the new age, etc etc. It was strange because his videos captured my interest, kinda resonated with me and I had tolisten to them approx 6 times before they sank in.

[@Xanaseb]

Have been following Jonathan for years, so glad you have interviewed him as he has so much to give to us as Catholics with his symbolic framework/approach to understanding

[@languageteachingtruth.6952]

If you can speak Croatian, the Croatian Byzantine rite parishes have published a book on the Divine Liturgy that speaks about symbols and what everything in the liturgy and beyond means. It is called Liturgika. Not easy to find, I bought one at the co-cathedral parish and it was a blast, much like Romano Guardini's work on sacred symbols. There is a lot of these things, it is just that it is kind of hidden.

[@l.sophia2803]

Speaking of symbolism, the ads on this video have something striking in common.. there is a large amount of content that elicits disgust.. mostly referencing human body functions and disgusting imagery. Please all, be aware of the nature of the algorthms we are benig subconsciously exposed to and the nature of the business as well as the psycho social agenda behind the glo ball model of reality.

[@knightrider585]

If JBP announced he was a Roman Catholic or Eastern Orthodox or Anglican or whatever today, the door he has been holding open for non-religious people would close. At some point he will close that door, but he seems concerned to make sure we all have our chance to make it through. I am glad I made it through the front door into the entry hall and that I even now know which room I am heading towards. ;)

[@MidnightIsolde]

True. When I first listened to his lectures years ago, I did so because he examined the bible in an academic way that was both novel and familiar to me. I was a final year history undergrad then, so his style was one I could respect. I was interested in medieval history (and therefore Christianity and church history), but I was still essentially atheist. I would not have been able to hear Petersons presentation of bible stories had he been an overtly religious man. It was his secular academic credentials and insightful analysis which allowed me to even listen. So, he is a stepping stone for many and undoubtedly had allowed many former atheists to have another look at religion, precisely because he presents it to be a real yet metaphorical reality. Many people dimly cannot make the intellectual leap without this. But, ultimately faith requires letting go at some point

[@dog-headedman2634]

I’m have such gratitude for JBP. He built a bridge from secularity to Christ which I crossed. At the same time, I worry that he’ll build a tower on that bridge. Or to say it differently, erect an altar in the narthex.

[@justachannel8600]

I find this such a weird thing to say. Why would you want him to pick a denomination? Why would you think that closes the door for nonreligious people? It may be just me, but I've always thought the more religious you are the more freeform you become. Like an inexperienced speaker might need to keep notes and read books about speaking, but a great speaker might just become a master chef because speaking is really just cooking with metaphors.

[@knightrider585]

@@justachannel8600 And you think you can somehow get to be a master chef without ever having worked under a master chef or even followed a recipe in your life? Maybe there is some higher spiritual level, but writing off ever going to a church and joining a particular religion is not going to get you anywhere.

LOVE this! Have been following Jonathan for quite a while-and wasn’t it Jordan Peterson who helped him be known?!! We need ALL of you. Jordan Peterson is a blessing from the psychological side. He shows people how to think. The Bible is AMAZING! Christ is amazing. The significance of His body and blood has been watered down. We are no longer fluent in the signs and symbols of our faith. We need help in reclaiming this fluency. Bishop Barron is a blessing. Jordan is a blessing. Jonathan is amazing in a different way. What a GREAT conversation.

[@eveningprimrose3088]

I love Jonathan's explanation of the function of ritual in this interview. Very helpful! I was raised in protestantism, and that is my only option for fellowship at my locale at this time, unfortunately. It has felt wrong my whole life, and it has grated on my spirit, honestly. For one thing, the forced, apparent "spontaneity" within services is getting worse by the day. It is intended to make the experience feel more authentic and organic and real, when it actually makes the gatherings feel common, or profane even. Laid-back services lead to, or reflect (mutually reinforce, i would say) laid-back living and laid-back faith. Furthermore, the sermon as the main feature of the service is wrong. A pastor who thinks he is expositing the word of God preaches his own values and almost uses scripture to advocate for whatever things he thinks are important. And the tag line at the end is always, to wit, "come forward and say you believe in Jesus, and all is well." It just isn't the most sound way to have "church," I don't think. Maybe I am naive, but I think that regular participation in a liturgical service that was solemn and beautiful and included the eucharist often would change my faith life, and therefore my whole life, for the better. And last but not least, regular opportunity for confession of sins would be the best thing ever. The democratization of Christianity has not been a good thing.

Jorden sees/understands our CREATOR far clearer than any CHRISTIAN or Church goers. Please know within my thoughts, I AM NOT PUTTING ANYONE DOWN…

[@afterlate8866]

With due respect, if you really knew what some Christians are blessed to know and think, and have thought throughout the whole of Christianity (and I hope your - and my - knowledge increase as I am a late, real starter) you would not assume that Jordan Peterson ‘knows our Creator’ better than, say, the Church fathers or the late Pope Benedict and all the saints, for example and even some church goers. This is not to denigrate JP in any way, but he, too, like many of us, is on a journey of ‘knowing’; it is perhaps mostly his exiting (and excitable) transmission of that knowledge which makes us sit up and pay attention, as well as the fact that he’s an expert in psychology. Being humble, I’m sure he would be the first to say it of himself. Further, ‘knowing’ without putting that knowledge into daily practice at the service of God and man is a waste of time. Perhaps you might like to read the books of C S Lewis amongst others. They help me.

Genius interview, Jonathan delivers as always. I really need to point it out thought because it bothered me a bit and I think it's important - the quality of Satan is not being ironic, it's being aesthetic. It's a massive difference that matters.

[@foxdenham]

For me the 'Gap' (as Jonathan calls it) has best been described within the phrase, "the things I don't want do, I do and the things I want to do, I don't do. Who will free me from this body of sin, etc." I wouldn't call myself a Christian as such, but I do stand in the gap, with the deep realisation that I don't know the answers, but I do know it's not via my own mind, or self-will outside of God's grace. As for this being 'Good News'... I've yet to figure this out!

[@borderlands6606]

Jonathan is very good at revealing the power of symbols. For many Catholics symbol is a kind of dirty word, an arbitrary stand in for something more important. I see symbols as a fundamental building block of reality. Like "myth" which has become synonymous with falsehood, a myth is a truth underlying the illusion of concreteness, and symbols are its language. We can never fully unpick them, but we should always venerate their power.

[@catholicunscripted]

He is excellent. Would you say that’s the case for most Catholics? I’d say that Catholics are amongst those who best understand symbol.

[@borderlands6606]

@@catholicunscripted It's an ambiguous relationship, partly because we live in a post-reformation world where Christian iconography is viewed with suspicion. The Eastern church deals in archetypes, while Catholic imagery varies from reductive post-VII abstraction, to hyperreal Spanish renaissance wax figures with wounds, real hair and glass eyes. The counter-reformation gave birth to the baroque, the Vatican's enforced style, a kind of show of power by ornamentation, then back to the medieval Gothic and ultimately the suburban bunker style of the Catholic modernists. It leaves symbolism in a no-man's land, and Catholic's somewhat orphaned from their own symbolic language.

[@SL-es5kb]

@@catholicunscripted in my experience most participating Catholics still live primarily in the left brained secular mindset and then suspend their doubt and kind of create a space where they, based on belief, participate in their faith practices and more or less try to live moral lives and follow the sermon on the mount. Their ability to do so comes obviously from a subconscious connection with Christ that enables them to straddle those two parts of their lives. That may explain what you mentioned about people who are practising Catholics who support feminism and the alphabet movement. They aren’t seeing with spiritual eyes when presented with those arguments. That type of Catholic is different than a fully conscious faith life where they see everything with spiritual eyes and live fully in the Christian story. Jonathan can help people bridge into living fully in an ontological frame where their faith isn’t just about obeying rules and suspending rational doubt to “believe” but rather know and perceive spiritual reality. I believe this is also describable at the level of neurology (iain McGilcrest) where in modernity our left brain is dominant and we lose our eyes to see and ears to hear…

[@tomthx5804]

The problem is that there are no definitive explanation of what IS a symbol and exactly what it symbolizes. Ask any group of Catholics, and you will get many different ideas of what is a symbol, and what it is a symbol of, and their ideas about the meaning of the symbol will vary widely. I thought it was funny that Mark referred to the "DaVinci Code" "symbologist". Any "expert" who presumes to tell us all what are symbols and what are not, and what they mean, is usually a sham, and that is exactly what the Davinci Code guy was. That being said, there are some things that Catholics generally agree on certain things we call symbols in the faith, and SOME of that is accurate and real. However, many other groups in Catholicism make up their own, weird, idiosyncratic "symbols" and their meanings, and that gets into a sort of self worshipping paganism, as far as I am concerned.

[@borderlands6606]

@@tomthx5804 In semiotic terms, a symbol is something which has only a culturally agreed relationship with the thing it represents. Unlike say, an icon which resembles the thing or person (a painting or sculpture of a saint, for example). It depends whether the church as a whole believes the language of signs and symbols exhausts the meaning of a Catholic object, or it functions in ways that cannot be systematised. I agree that some objects accrue personal meanings that are not fully agreed on by the faithful, rosary beads being one example.

I had to chuckle at your implication that Jordan wrestles with everything-not just God-and then Bishop Barron comes along and very calmly puts the thoughts in succinct order. Both men are brilliant. It’s helpful to many to see how Jordan seeks to answer a question as honestly as possible. His understanding of the human person is invaluable. But if you think it was funny to see how Bishop Barron translates JP, watch JP’s conversation with Dr. Phil. Dr. Phil is a gifted communicator. Freed from his show, he’s dealing more openly, through Merit Street Media, with issues that perplex many of us. To see JP and Dr. Phil together is pretty strange and wonderful. Two very different psychologists. I literally watched while JP went through some tortuous descriptions and questions, then tossing the ball to Dr. Phil, a Texan who speaks plainly. None of that high falutin stuff. Yet, all of these men are gifted and very valuable.

[@anhumblemessengerofthelawo3858]

43:00 A further point must be perfectly clear before any residual fear still associated with miracles can disappear. The crucifixion did not establish the Atonement; the resurrection did. Many sincere Christians have misunderstood this. No one who is free of the belief in scarcity could possibly make this mistake. If the crucifixion is seen from an upside-down point of view, it does appear as if God permitted and even encouraged one of His Sons to suffer _because_ he was good. This particularly unfortunate interpretation, which arose out of projection, has led many people to be bitterly afraid of God. Such anti-religious concepts enter into many religions. Yet the real Christian should pause and ask, "How could this be?" Is it likely that God Himself would be capable of the kind of thinking which His Own words have clearly stated is unworthy of His Son? Sacrifice is a notion totally unknown to God. It arises solely from fear, and frightened people can be vicious. Sacrificing in any way is a violation of my injunction that you should be merciful even as your Father in Heaven is merciful. It has been hard for many Christians to realize that this applies to themselves. I have been correctly referred to as "the lamb of God who taketh away the sins of the world," but those who represent the lamb as blood-stained do not understand the meaning of the symbol. Correctly understood, it is a very simple symbol that speaks of my innocence. The lion and the lamb lying down together symbolize that strength and innocence are not in conflict, but naturally live in peace. "Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God" is another way of saying the same thing. A pure mind knows the truth and this is its strength. It does not confuse destruction with innocence because it associates innocence with strength, not with weakness. Innocence is incapable of sacrificing anything, because the innocent mind has everything and strives only to protect its wholeness. It cannot project. It can only honor other minds, because honor is the natural greeting of the truly loved to others who are like them. The lamb "taketh away the sins of the world" in the sense that the state of innocence, or grace, is one in which the meaning of the Atonement is perfectly apparent. The Atonement is entirely unambiguous. It is perfectly clear because it exists in light. ~*~ We are still equal as learners, although we do not need to have equal experiences. ²The Holy Spirit is glad when you can learn from mine, and be reawakened by them. ³That is their only purpose, and that is the only way in which I can be perceived as the way, the truth and the life. ⁴When you hear only one Voice you are never called on to sacrifice. ⁵On the contrary, by being able to hear the Holy Spirit in others you can learn from their experiences, and can gain from them without experiencing them directly yourself. ⁶That is because the Holy Spirit is one, and anyone who listens is inevitably led to demonstrate His way for all. 11.

For Truth, many ask for evidence, meaning data, but data only becomes evidence with authority. Data is also partial, in that it is that which was recorded, using recording methods designed for the purpose, which was what those undertaking the collection of data decided they wanted. It may be useful for their purpose but as time, especially goes by and the actors change, the assembled data may well become obselescent. We might describe this, not as Truth, but as conformity to expectations. I suppose that most phenomena cannot become data as it defies close description, such as dark energy/matter and the average temperature of the atmosphere for example. Most of the universe cannot, on this consideration become data, let alone evidence and certainly not Truth, or not by such methods.

You see it in your language already. >Allowing the spirit to guide Here's the catch: We're not just spirits. We're EMBODIED creatures. We both have BODY and spirit. Hence the requirement for God to come into FLESH. To become human. If you go for pure spirit, you may not see it yourself, but others, your descendents or followers will interpret that BODY as EVIL, and has to be removed from Existence. That's essentially Gnosticism. And to add, this way of thinking is the reason why we're here in the first place. Protestantism is essentially a pseudo-gnostic thought where everything embodied eventually gets abandoned, and everything else remains in thought or spirit.

It’s weird to hear him talk about narcissism as if he isn’t guilty of it himself. As of 2022, there are 7.951 BILLION people living on the Earth-and he is worried about humans going extinct? At that rate we just keep destroying everything. It may seem counterintuitive, but in order for humans to survive, some people must make the incredibly important and unselfish decision to not have children.

In what way is he not smart? He clearly has a very high intelligence. You don’t have to agree with him and you can believe he is wrong about things but his IQ is clearly very high

[@МаринаКерн-й6г]

Because he IS SMART. It takes some intellectual effort and some level of education to grip what he is delivering for general public. He is one of the SMARTEST psychologists nowadays.

Great talk. I think it is always worth to remark that 'against compassion' is actually 'against compassion towards sin' Putin resembles the dark side of Orthodoxy. He is a clear example of what can go wrong and how must not be. Let's not forget that Ukraine is mostly Orthodox country (with a significant Catholic part, and a unique Union Church, or Greek Catholic Church (Orthodox rite but acknowledging the Pope). Frankly, I don't know which Orthodox country can give the best example of a society - to represent the light side of Orthodoxy. Maybe Cyprus.

[@Mobuku]

Frankly, this is the reason why I think the Orthodox Church ultimately fails. It ends up always being subordinate to the Emperor aka the State. The Catholic Church, by having a Pope, will have ways to separate itself from the control of the State. Before you say France tho, France actually forced the hand of Rome, by blackmailing Rome that if Rome doesn't give them the power to appoint Bishoprics, they would become Protestant. Of course Rome didn't want the latter, so it conceded, and the result was the massacre in the French Revolution, because the Bishops and Priests were loyal not to Rome, but to the whims of the King. You could see pretty much the same thing with Russia why there were barely any mercy for the Orthodox Church from the Communists. They were the dogs of the Emperor then, and so many of the lower class associated the Orthodox Church as a hand of the Emperor. Meanwhile, many places where the Catholic Church stood as the religion behind colonial powers, many colonies though rebelled against their colonial masters, retained the Church as part of the culture, with many low class people siding with the plight of the Church. That's really it. It has to do with the order of the Church and State, with the Church being above the State. The Orthodox could not move to that.

[@edwardbell9795]

I understand the argument that Peterson can more good outside the Church but sooner or later he needs to think about his own soul and get off the fence. Your guest is interesting although "symbology" sounds very Jungian and there's more than enough of Jung's sub-Christian, near pagan influence around, whether it be Myers-Briggs in the corporate world or enneagrams at the bubble bath scented candle end of spirituality.

[@catholicunscripted]

Thanks for watching. Can see what you mean, but Jonathan is an Eastern Orthodox Christian and does work to help manoeuvre such Jungian thinkers away from the archetype/individuation narrative towards Christ

“We have trouble with our daughters because they are compassionate, and they care, and they want to love.” Interesting that this is troubling you. You say you care for the lives of children and that the LGBTQ rights movement leads to termination of life, but you willfully ignore the children who terminate their life because they find no place in their religious communities and homes as a sexual/gender minority. It seems your argument is that it’s best to moderate compassion and not extend it to the lepers of our time. Are you so sure of your own righteousness?

[@elitestockpicks8212]

[@fadmacat]

One side says listen to the voices on social media that you should change who you are to feel beautiful through hormone therapy and genital surgery. The other side says you are already beautiful in your created state because you are created in the image of God. Which is more compassionate?

[@jonathanadamson]

@@fadmacat Compassion has nothing to do with the argument against gender affirming care, which I suppose is the thing you are most beset by (what about LGB & Q?). Compassion requires empathy, which is the ability to take another's perspective to the point of a shared feeling and understanding. "The other side" is moralizing, not being compassionate. It is universally prescribing what is deemed right and true. Regardless of causal arguments for how gender dysphoria comes into the experience of a person, it is nevertheless the experience of some minority of humans. It isn't about "the voices on social media," (which *blindspot alert* we ARE on social media right now and so it seems the derogatory move to invalidate one side of the argument by characterizing it as "voices on social media" applies equally to both ends), it's about the one- and actual human being. Not an abstraction. Not a dogma. It's about a real life human person. So any conversation *about* said person ought to begin with real empathy into their lived experience. If you start there, you'll find it very difficult to arrive at some universal, black and white, moralistic prescription for how people ought to move through their one precious life. Compassion is demonstrated at the level of the individual.

[@fadmacat]

@@jonathanadamson Trust me, I fully understand the individual nature of this issue. First, you are addressing one of the most fundamental aspects of humanity - that of being male or female, so are you surprised that there is a "moralistic" reaction towards it? That is, by saying "quit moralizing it and just let them be who they want, in compassion" IS in fact taking a moral stand on the issue. You may not think so, but it is. Secondly (and you'll probably react in anger for generalizing but I don't know how else to THINK), we are frequently dealing with adolescents who are often impressionable, insecure and spend a lot of time online. Thus, compassion is extremely important when dealing with them. In my opinion, the church can be a good place because it specifically teaches them that they were created in in the image of God, that God cares for them, etc. Sorry, I don't know how to not "moralize" things when I am a moral being dealing with "moral" issues.

First time here, I was intrigued by the title. I think it’s way more that just “believe yourself to be yourself” as they say but a good identification of those idea holders but it’s like the gentleman said Jordan Peterson is at the door, I would say dancing at the door as a mad man who needs help and it’s right in front of him. It’s why I personally stopped watching him personally not that he’s a bad person it’s more I’m not interested going in circles. There’s walking with God or Lucifer, or practicing the ideas in hope for both ideas. There those who give glory to Satan as those who give Glory to YHWH and both believe it’s Good and the other evil, both have a good case but only one supreme, you live for today or in preparation for tomorrow.IMO😊

Move forward to the Crucifixion, who is the only Apostle to stay by Our Lord's side at the foot of the Cross? John. What is Christ wearing on His head? a Crown of Thorns. What does the plaque above Christ's has read? Jesus of Nazareth, *King* of the Jews. Who else is at the Foot of the Cross with John among many others? His Mother Mary, and in the Ancient Kingdom of Judah, it was the Mother that was Queen alongside the King of Judah, Gebirah was the title they had. Looks like Christ fulfilled this prophecy to a T, Saint John who was standing there when Christ uttered the prophecy did not taste death until He saw Christ the King lifted up to draw all peoples to Him.

Terrible talk. I am very open to learn. But this was just an awful lot of claims without any substance. I was brought up in a Christian community, and I can totally understand why people were sick, bored and even harmed by this religion and were looking for new sources of meaning. I was lucky to find my way back to Christianity, also with the help of New Ageism. But this sort of conversations won’t do the job to help us understand what’s really going wrong rn. I‘m glad that Jonathan admits at least once at 36:30 that a petrified church was part of the problem.
