‘Abortion is clearly wrong’: Jordan Peterson
by Dorothy Cummings McLean, LifeSite:
Freedom of speech phenomenon Jordan Peterson is known for attacking the Left’s most sacred cows, including gender theory and the LGBT agenda. His view on abortion, however, has largely flown under the radar.
In a lecture last year, the famous Canadian psychology professor stated that abortion is “wrong.”
“Abortion is clearly wrong,” Peterson said after being asked for his views on abortion and abortion legislation during his May 30, 2017 lecture titled “Adam and Eve: Self-Consciousness, Evil and Death.”
“I don’t think anybody debates that. You wouldn’t recommend that someone you love have one,” he added.
The address was Part 4 of his lecture series “The Psychological Significance of the Biblical Stories”, which took place in the Isabel Bader Theatre at the University of Toronto.
Peterson stated, however, that his answer didn’t “eliminate the complexity” of the abortion issue. He suggested that his answer would not be “good enough,” adding that he “would flail” around in an attempt at an answer.
