I think a little more highly of the group, if only just. They each have their own little thing that they get right. The trouble is that they each struggle to get outside their one corner of expertise. If you take a little of each you can do pretty well for yourself.

I actually think Eric is the clearest thinking of the bunch, but he can't get out of his own way in communicating it. He insists on using his own words and doesn't bother with trying (or doesn't know how) to clarify.

Bret is the most tolerable because he has the smallest ego, relatively.

I liked Peterson, but he is full on incoherent at this point because he walked all the way to the door but doesn't have the courage to walk through. If he did he'd be a neophyte and a nobody. He'd have to let go of himself and learn.

I have similar opinions of the New Atheists. They were clever, but in the end they were also idiots. All their arguments are shallow and don't hold up to serious inquiry. They made their living knocking over the strawman that is evangelical Christianity.

If mainline protestantism is Bitcoin Cash then Evangelical Christianity is NFTs.

I will grant that Evangelicalism is a wonderful collection of strawmen that aught to be knocked over, so I guess I am grateful for their service. They just didn't score the points that they thought they did.
