Jordan Peterson on the psychological significance of biblical stories (part 1)
MUST WATCH!

BIBLICAL SERIES 1 - INTRODUCTION TO THE IDEA OF GOD
This was a long video but it was a decent lecture or the start of one. It'll take time for you to sit though the whole thing but it was worth it.
I loved them all. It's definitely alot to take in but it totally interested me so I listened every evening while I lay here on my tablet anyway. Sometimes having to re-listen night after night because I'd fall asleep with the video playing...lol
It's the first time I've ever heard a totally coherent explanation of how our Western religion actually ties in quite nicely with what we know to be biological 'and' psychological scientific fact and why it's important not to lose it all by painting it as simply belief.
