I went down the rabbit hole of trying to figure out JBP some time around 2017. The Psychological Significance of the Biblical Stories drew me in at the time. I am an atheist, the bible is a knowledgeable gap for me, it had its appeal. It did not take me too long to see that his shtick is using a lot of words to say what could be passed as plain truths, but at the same time never really saying anything.
I stopped paying attention by the time his 12 rules book came out, and out side have a few conversations with some friends and co worker about him I kind of figured his gimmick would be a passing fad. I get the appeal to people who feel they are loosing their place in the hierarchy of society or going through some difficult patch of life, but I am always surprised that people keep talking about him like he is one of the great thinkers of our time. His area of expertise is very narrow. Bible story’s. Words matter. Boot straps. It’s pretty simple stuff really.
thanks for the article. I am glad some one is paying attention to the people who are paying attention to the likes of JBP.

You nailed it RN. It’s a shtick.
