This Jordan Peterson 12 Rules book is pretty awesome.
SU would really like the stuff near the midpoint of the book about Dostoevsky’s Grand Inquisitor and Nietzsche. There is a lot of stuff in that section that converges with LDS theology: works (not just faith) are important, becoming like Christ should be our goal.
I like what Peterson says about discipline and sacrifice: “The future is a judgmental father.” He articulates pretty well many of the emotional and psychological truths to be found in religion and in our religious myths. The distinction between “objective truth” and psychological/emotional/moral truth is discussed as well. Good stuff!
