Russel Brand and Jordan Peterson prayer to God

[Rafael Thundercat]

 

I think by now the collective need to suspect on the sanity level of any leader who use the word God in his public life. 

[Nemra]

I would say that anyone who uses the term "God", especially public intellectuals, is sus.

Brand has become a cringe attention-whore.

I honestly think he's just trying to cultivate a right wing Christian audience because of the sexual abuse allegations that came out about him last year.

He seems to have seen the way the winds were blowing with the potential for those allegations to surface and several years ago made a strategic decision to being catering more and more to a conservative audience because they are more likely to mistrust sexual assault allegations and to construe them as false.

And being really openly Christian just seems like another way to throw red meat to the audience he's cultivating. And it also gives people who do believe the allegations a reason to go, "Look, he found God. Maybe he did do those things before, but now that he's found Jesus he's clearly learned his lesson and is doing the right things."

I think Jordan Peterson has a genuine leaning towards Christianity. He has spoken about Christianity many many times. I don't know why he supports religion so much. It's strange and weird sometimes.

Good point.  In Brasil is common ex-criminals to become Pastors or Politicians and Speak all about God on their plataforms. Mainly because people keep the ideia that a man of God cant lie or commit atrocities. These guys use God as a Cover to hide their Shadow Devilish ways. When they face God they will realize that his goal was not to cover devils but exterminate then. Ok I was to harsh now.
