Douglas Murray and Jonathan Pageau | EP 290

Jonathan Pageau, Douglas Murray, and Dr. Jordan B. Peterson discuss our hierarchies of perception, existence, faith, and whether meaning is a self evident truth or something intangible that is sought in vain. Jonathan Pageau is a French-Canadian liturgical artist and icon carver, known for his work featured in museums across the world. He carves Eastern Orthodox and other traditional images, and teaches an online carving class. He also runs a YouTube channel dedicated to the exploration of symbolism across history and religion. Douglas Murray is a British political commentator and author. In 2007 he founded a think tank called the Center for Social Cohesion, which later became part of the Henry Jackson Society. Currently he is an associate editor for the magazine the Spectator, where he became somewhat infamous after organizing a competition in which entrants were invited to submit offensive poems about Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, with a top prize of £1,000. He has authored five books, the most recent of which being “The War on the West.” Dr Peterson's extensive catalog is available now on DailyWire+: https://utm.io/ueSXh —Links— For Douglass Murray: Website: https://douglasmurray.net/ (Book) The War on the West: https://www.amazon.com/War-West-Dougl...
