Jordan Peterson thought, you know what?
Today, I'm gonna wake up and try to own the Pope.
And that's what happened in response to a pretty lovely tweet from the Pope.
So let's start with what the pope had to say.
And then we'll get to Jordan Peterson's reaction to it.
So the pope tweets hashtag Social Justice demands that we fight
against the causes of poverty, inequality and the lack of labor land,
and lodging against those who deny social and labor rights.
And against the culture that leads to taking away the dignity of others.
Now look, that is the least objectionable tweet I've ever read.
But since it's Twitter, people are gonna find it objectionable,
namely individuals like Jordan Peterson who quote tweeted the Pope and said this.
There's nothing Christian about Social Justice,
redemptive salvation is a matter of the individual soul.
>> [LAUGH] >> I don't even know what that means.
But let's also remember how Jordan Peterson approaches
the very simple question of do you believe in God?
>> Do you believe in God?
And I think, okay, there's a couple of mysteries in that question.
What do you mean, do?
What do you mean, you?
What do you mean, believe?
And what do you mean, God?
And you say as the questioner, well,
we already know what all those things mean, except belief in God.
And I think no, if we're going to get down to the fundamental brass tacks.
We don't really know what any of those things mean.
All right, >> [LAUGH] or
as my son would say bro [LAUGH].
>> Anyway, Jake, this is your time.
Okay, this is when Jake shines, okay?
The time when he can read verses from the bible.
So do you >> For sure,
no one reads the bible more than me.
No, atheist reads the bible more than I do.
All right guys, so a bunch of things.
First of all, I love that Jordan Peterson is so arrogant.
He's like he's gonna get into a bible quoting contest with the pope.
>> [LAUGH] >> Okay, good luck brother, okay,
you're gonna need it.
And so apparently Jesus is not about social justice.
I didn't care, cared about individualism really?
Individualism, all right, well let's read some quotes.
Luke 6:30, here's what Jesus said, give to everyone who asks you and
if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back.
What kind of individual does that?
>> Was Jesus Antifa?
>> Okay, well here's what you're gonna find out,
Jesus would make Karl Marx blush, okay?
He said give away everything you own, Marks is like everything.
[LAUGH] Okay, so here we go more.
Luke 6:35 Jesus says love your enemies do good to them.
And lend to them without expecting to get anything back then your reward will
be great.
Like so help others not yourself.
Does it sound like individualism to me.
Let's keep going Matthew 19:21 Jesus said unto him.
If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast and give to the poor.
And thou shalt have treasure in heaven and come and follow me?
In other words, give away all of your worldly possessions.
Does it sound very individualistic, does it?
>> Is Jordan Peterson going to go to hell?
Well it depends.
What do you mean by Jordan's?
What do you mean by Peterson?
>> Or going.
>> What do you mean by going?
What do you mean by to?
And what do you mean by hell [LAUGH]?
>> Now you would think that you know we know all those things we know okay,
but do we, [LAUGH] okay?
No, if you really look, I got more questions that came from.
But the bottom line is okay that Jesus was a communist,
[LAUGH] Like please, I'm begging you to read the bible, okay?
You'll see, Jesus says over and over and over again, give away everything you have.
All your worldly possessions, give it to the poor and give it to the needy,
give it to the community and be together as a community.
Follow me cause I've got that community.
He wasn't like be individualistic, go get a mansion and a yacht.
And don't give a damn about other people.
And tell the pope that, [LAUGH].
These guys are a jokers and they really are [LAUGH].
>> Jordy, he's having fun.
>> You know what he's gonna do when he sees this.
>> Is there anyone he doesn't fight with on Twitter?
>> No, he's just trying to get attention and, I know right?
>> It's true, and in his own mind he thinks the Pope got him
>> Got him
>> Okay, but Jordan,
what do you mean by God, and what do you mean by,,
