World-renowned Canadian author and psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson will be on stage at Bitcoin 2022 in Miami April 6-9, causing speculation that he may be planning a public endorsement of bitcoin in a city that prides itself on being friendly towards bitcoin and other cryptocurrency-related industry and adoption.

Peterson has become wildly popular in recent years with millions of views on his YouTube podcast and millions of sales worldwide of his self-help book 12 Rules For Life. An Antidote To Chaos.

A highlight of the Miami conference, Peterson is causing excitement and a certain amount of surprise as he has expressed an interest in bitcoin in the past, but has not been a regular on the Bitcoin front lines.

Francis Pouliot, CEO and founder of Canadas largest noncustodial exchange Bull Bitcoin has been a fan of Petersons since 2018, and included his book 12 Rules For Life in his picks for the top three books of 2018:

My three most influential books of 2018:

- Skin in the game by @nntaleb (ethics, aesthetics, epistemology)
- 12 rules for life by @jordanbpeterson (self-ownership, lifestyle, meaning)
- The Bitcoin Standard by @saifedean (intellectually coherent economic/monetary/social theory)

— FRANCIS - BULLBITCOIN.COM (@francispouliot_) January 2, 2019

Pouliot is seeing an accelerating interest in bitcoin in Canada, likely in part because of what he calls the out-of-control financial censorship that culminated in the Emergencies Act to suppress the Freedom Convoy protests by Canadian truckers, as well as the Bank of Canada's dramatic increase in money printing.

Pouliot told Bitcoin Magazine that he sees the orange-pilling of Jordan Peterson as being perfectly representative of this new wave of bitcoin adoption.

A growing constituency of Canadians, including within the traditional business establishments, realize that banking and government institutions do not have their best interest at heart, he said.

As they look for solutions to mitigate inflation and political uncertainty, Bitcoin stands out as the only credible alternative to the fiat system. Given the gravity of this rapidly deteriorating situation, they are now willing to give Bitcoin a shot, he added.

Jordan Peterson what is the attraction? He is credited with tens of millions of cumulative views from all around the world on his YouTube podcast.

Why do young people in particular Generations X and Z, and mainly young men follow a boomer professor emeritus from Canadas University of Toronto?

In her article in The Atlantic, Why the Left Is So Afraid Of Jordan Peterson, author Caitlin Flanagan says:

The Canadian psychology professors stardom is evidence that leftism is on the decline and deeply vulnerable.

Flanagan sees Peterson as occupying an intellectual niche all his own that is not conservative (although often characterized as such), not liberal and outside the overwhelmingly dominant politically-correct ethos found in academia today.

Young men particularly are getting what she calls the only sustained argument against identity politics.

With identity politics off the table, it was possible to talk about all kinds of things religion, philosophy, history, myth in a different way. They could have a direct experience with ideas, not one mediated by ideology, she added.

Peterson has been a source of controversy (here a message from a Kitchener, Ontario transgender group) over the use of gender nouns and pronouns and what he sees as a move away from free speech in Canada.

Francis Pouliot is a big fan of free speech and is thrilled that Peterson, another free speech advocate, will be attending whats looking to be the largest Bitcoin event ever held with an estimated 20,000 in attendance.

I am extremely stoked that Jordan Peterson is coming to Bitcoin 2022, he told us.

Like many other Bitcoin professionals, Dr. Peterson's teachings about personal responsibility have had a profound positive effect on my life and I consider them to be a perfect complement to the Bitcoin ethos of self-sovereignty.

Peterson is currently campaigning against an Ontario proposed law that will require critical race theory to be taught in public schools in Ontario.

Peterson has been a thoughtful observer of Bitcoin but his priorities have mainly been with his clinical psychology practice.

In his podcast with John Vallis Bitcoiner book club in August 2021, Peterson asked the four Bitcoiners many of the right questions giving listeners one of the best insights into the workings of a Bitcoiners mind.

In November 2021, Peterson interviewed Dr. Saifedean Amous, author of The Bitcoin Standard and he was clearly still learning about Bitcoin. He is especially impressed that Bitcoin can be kept completely out of the hands of governments.

What will Peterson have to say on April 8 at 12:30 pm?

Bitcoin Magazine will be covering the event both in print and on livestream.

A Penn State associate professor allegedly hoped for the deaths of prominent conservative voices, including former President Donald Trump, Jordan Peterson, and Ben Shapiro.

The Post Millennial editor-at-large Andy Ngo shared alleged screenshots of alarming tweets sent by Zack Furness a Penn State University associate professor of communications at the Greater Allegheny campus. Furness reportedly replied to a popular Twitter account that posts unusual moments from American politics.

On March 26, the Twitter account shared a photo from 2017 of then-President Trump tossing out paper towels to Puerto Ricans who were ravaged by Hurricane Maria.

According to screenshots posted by Ngo, Furness replied to the tweet of Trump by writing, "Should've been Lincolnd five minutes later." Furness is referencing the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln, who was shot in the head by John Wilkes Booth in 1865.

Ngo also shared a screenshot of an alleged tweet from Furness written in September 2020, in which he hoped that several conservative commentators, as well as centrist and left-leaning figures, be killed.

"I'd like to build an arc and fill it with, Michael Tracey, Andrew Sullivan, Bari Weiss, Andy Ngo, Ian Miles Cheong, Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, and Fox & Friends. And then launch it toward the sun," Furness wrote on Sept. 9, 2020.

Tracey is a journalist and political commentator who was a member of the progressive The Young Turks network and is known for his anti-war ideology. Sullivan is a British author and writer who has written for New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic, Time, and Newsweek. Weiss is a left-leaning writer who previously covered culture and politics at the New York Times until she resigned and later said the "newspaper of record" attempts to "satisfy the narrowest of audiences." Cheong is an online commentator who has written for several media outlets about gaming, culture, and politics. Peterson is a clinical psychologist and professor emeritus at the University of Toronto. Shapiro is a conservative commentator and founder of the Daily Wire.

Furness has since deleted his account with the handle "@punkademic."

On the Penn State University website, Furness wrote a description of himself.

"My name is Zack Furness and I am Associate Professor of Communications at Penn State Universitys Greater Allegheny campus, where I also serve as the Communications Program Coordinator and the WMKP Radio General Manager," Furness said.

"My work as both a researcher and a teacher draws upon a web of influences that include communication and cultural studies, cultural geography, feminist and Marxist theory, anarchism, environmentalism, critical pedagogy, history and philosophy of technology, and punk rock," he added.

Furness also said that he has "performed in punk bands and other musical projects since 1997, most recently in Barons, and my current research is all related to music in some way."

"During the 2018-2019 academic year, I began that work as a Visiting Scholar in the Department of Music at the University of Pittsburgh, while on sabbatical from Penn State," he noted.

The Post Millenial reported, "One particular communications class, titled 'Gender, Diversity & the Media,' explores the cultural, socioeconomic, historical, and political implications of media content, media practices, and media literacy."

The course syllabus stated, "Course readings and assignments are designed to help students build deeper understandings of gender, race, ethnicity, ability, sexual orientation and class diversity in media. Communication theory helps explain how media representations impact human construction of meaning in social relationships, in both the US and throughout the world."

Candace Owens has accused Jada Pinkett Smith of leaving her husband, Will Smith, "spiritually annihilated" as she shared her take on why she believes the actor slapped Chris Rock at Sunday's Oscars.

As has been well documented, Smith stunned Oscars viewers and attendees alike when he made his way onto the stage and struck Rock across the face in reaction to a joke he had made about Pinkett Smith.

"Jada, I love you. G.I. Jane 2, can't wait to see it," he said, referring to Pinkett Smith's close-cropped haircut. The actress has, in the past, publicly shared how her hair loss is due to alopecia.

While recounting the night's events on her Daily Wire show Candace on Tuesday, Owens said in a clip shared on her Instagram account: "When Chris Rock first makes the joke, Will laughs, meaning that he takes the joke as it was intendedlightly.

"But then he looks over and sees that his wife does not find the joke funny and he immediately goes from an amused attendee to a thug-like husband, defending the honor of his wife's hair."

After further analysis of the incident, the conservative commentator said: "Through all of these jokes and the rampant commentary that is being offered, there is conversation that is being neglecteda truer assessment of what we observed on that Oscars stage.

"For the first time, we saw the real Will Smith, not a Fresh Prince, not a survivor of a zombie apocalypse in I Am Legend, not a crime-fighting cop in Bad Boys or a Hancock superhero, but the real Will Smithan incredibly broken man and the residual product of a directionless society that is filled with them.

"The kind of society that produces men that look to their more domineering wives, with their tails planted firmly between their legs, for instruction on what and who they ought to be in every room."

Owens then went on to discuss Pinkett Smith's 2020 confession that she had a romantic relationship with singer August Alsina, a situation that she famously referred to as an "entanglement" on her show, Red Table Talk.

"The truth is that off the big screen, Will Smith has been spiritually annihilated by his wife," Owens said. "Don't forget, it was Jada Pinkett Smith who openly shared with the world how she cheated on her husband, remember? And with who? Her son's friend.

"Jada carried out an extramarital affair with a young man who was, at first, friends with her son. Then she dragged her puppy dog husband out onto the world stage and told the public while making him sit through it, listen to it and agree that she had the right to do what she did."

During the Red Table Talk special, Pinkett Smith and Smith said that the relationship with Alsina happened while they were on a break. Smith later revealed that he also sought affection outside of their marriage as their relationship became non-monogamous.

"The takeaway from this interview was that they together represented some newer, more progressive form of what it means to be in a marriage, which is to say, not being in a real marriage at all," Owens said.

She said: "Will Smith today is someone who should be pitiednot prosecuted in a courtroom, or even persecuted in the public eyebut pitied by every person who has the clarity to see how our society, as sponsored by the perversion of these Hollywood types, is falling apart.

"Will Smith is what [psychologist] Jordan Peterson cautions against. He's nothing more than a casualty in the great war against masculinity."

Continuing her assessment of Pinkett Smith, Owens went on to say why she believes Pinkett Smith would be suitable to star in a remake of the 1997 movie G.I. Jane, which originally starred Demi Moore.

She explained that the film "tells the story of a woman being integrated into the all-male space of the United States military. It is the inspired tale of a loss of one woman's femininity to meet the grueling physical demands of the more masculine environment that she finds herself in.

"And so though not perhaps the punchline that Chris Rock had intended, I have to agree that yes, Jada Pinkett would be the perfect individual to play that role in a remake.

"And not because of her hair, obviously, but because of her success in stripping her husband of any trace understanding of what it means to be a real man. And let me tell you, Will, it isn't slapping a man across the face because your wife tells you to.

"I'm sorry to say that real manhood is not won on a stage at the Oscars with a meaningless trophy. Rather, real manhood begins and ends in your own household.

"It starts with the first step of being able to accurately identify what a good man, what a good woman and what a good, meaningful relationship even is. And with that, we wish you luck Will on your real-life pursuit of happiness."

Newsweek has contacted representatives of Smith and Pinkett Smith for comment.

Hereford girls lacrosse midfielder Lindsey Moneymaker knew Tuesdays early-season showdown with Westminster matched two unbeaten teams. She also knew it was her time to shine.

Moneymaker scored six goals, including a crucial one to give Hereford the lead for good as the host Bulls topped visiting Westminster, 13-11, in a nonleague contest.

Hereford (4-0) trailed by as many as four goals, 7-3, midway through the first half before rallying.

Jess Kent led the Owls (2-1) with five goals of her own.

Westminsters a tough team, and its a good win for us, first-year Hereford coach Kelly Swift said. We knew wed get a good game from them, and thats exactly what happened.

The Bulls looked a little lost in the first half. Westminster won most of the early draws and controlled the clock for a good portion of the first half. With the teams tied at 2, the Owls went on a run. Kent scored three straight goals in a 2:02 span to give Westminster a 5-2 advantage. Her second goal of the sequence came on a mistake by Hereford goalie M.K. McGonigle that left the net wide open, and the last came just 11 seconds later off a fast break following a draw control.

Hereford cut into the lead when Moneymaker scored from the top of the slot with a bounce shot that beat Westminster first-half goalie Syd Hetrick to cut the margin to 5-3. Westminster, though, added goals by Bridget Sheehy and Kate McAlohan to push the lead to 7-3 with 8:23 left in the first half.

Then it was Herefords turn.

The Bulls used two goals by Cam Kauffman and one each by Jordan Peterson, Maya Antonakas and Bailey Berquist to outscore the Owls 5-1 the rest of the half, tying the game at 8 entering the break.

The Bulls took the lead just 10 seconds into the second half when Moneymaker converted off a draw control win to jump ahead, 9-8. Hereford got another less than five minutes later when Antonakas scored on a free position.

To their credit, the Owls were not done. Kent scored the next two goals, the first coming on a free position, to tie the game at 10 with 17:42 left.

Hereford controlled possession after that, with Moneymaker scoring the next two goals and Antonakas adding one to take a 13-10 lead with 8:40 left.

Westminster got one back with 3:30 left when Belle Dintino scored on a free position, but the Owls couldnt get any closer.

We started to come together as a team in the second half, Moneymaker said. We were getting to a lot of the 50-50 balls that we werent getting in the first half and our defense started playing better. It was good for us to come back like that, because we need games like this to get us ready for the rest of the season. We started to play better and better as the game went on.

Hereford 13, Westminster 11

Goals: W Kent 5, Sheehy 2, McAlohan 2, Dintino, Moreland; H Moneymaker 6, Antonakas 3, Kauffman 2, Berquist, Peterson.

Assists: H Antonakas, Ziegler.

Saves: W Hetrick 4, Parks 5; H McGonigle 5. Halftime: 8-8

Prayer was my topic of discussion the last time I wrote in ThePerryNews.com. But that post mentioned something else that is key to revival. That post stated that true revivals are a back-to-prayer movement and a back-to-the-Bible movement.

I want to finish that post by encouraging you to make not only a back-to-prayer movement. I want to encourage you to make a back-to-the-Bible movement. The Bible is essential for your life.

There is something amorous about reading a hard copy of the Bible. Yet every generation of Americans seems to grow more and more Bible illiterate. I can remember people thinking that reading physical books would fall out of existence when the internet was just becoming popular.

That has proven to be false. Paper books are selling at faster rates every year. But there is one book that deserves our attention more than any other book. That book is the Bible.

Jordan Peterson recently called the Bible the bedrock of agreement, which has built the beautiful way of life those in the U.S. share. That does not mean America is perfect. It means that there needs to be a certain level of agreement among people if they are to get along, build something worth fighting for and continue to exist.

The Bible is the only book that establishes such a consistent point of agreement. The Bible is indispensable to the flourishing of any nation. And it is indispensable to your life.

The Bible gives us four reasons why you need to read the Bible every day. First, The law of the Lord is perfect, bringing back the soul (Ps. 19:1a.). The truths found in the Bible bring you back to God. Read the Bible if you want to hear from God. They are his words.

Second, the Bible makes wise the nave person (Ps. 19:1b.). It is easy think that we have it all together. The challenges of life prove otherwise. We are more nave than we are willing to admit.

God knows the truth, and he loves us so much that he has given us his wisdom in the Bible. Read the Bible if you want to make wise decisions.

Third, the instructions of the Lord are right, rejoicing the hear (Ps. 19:2a.). You are always happy when you know with absolute certainty that you have made the right decision. I am happy every time I think about the woman I chose to marry. Marrying Mandie is the second-best decision I have ever made.

The Bible says that you will be a happier person when you know what God has to say in the Bible because knowing the right thing always makes us happier people.

This leads us to the fourth reason why you ought to read the Bible every day. The greatest decision I have ever made was not marrying Mandie. It was coming back to God for salvation from sin, eternal death and Hell.

Hell is a real place no matter who denies it. Psalm 19:11 says, by them (the judgments of the Lord) Your servant is warned; In keeping them there is great reward (NASB95).

What does the Bible warn us about? The Bible warns us about a place called Hell and the Lake of Fire. The Bible says that God will send you to a real place full of eternal torment in fire called the Lake of Fire if your name is not found in his book of life (Rev. 20:15).

Now many who read this will immediately complain and say that God is unloving for punishing anyone. And it is not my purpose here to offer a defense of the truth. What is true is that God would be unloving to not tell us about a place called the Lake of Fire and how to escape that damnation.

Would you be loving or unloving to tackle your friend who was about to walk off the side of a cliff and fall to his death? You would be loving to save his life. In the same way, God has shown a great deal of his love by giving us the Bible, which warns us about his wrath to come so that we would escape that wrath. That is the ultimate reward for keeping his judgments.

When you keep the judgments of the Lord (Ps. 19:9b.), by reading the Bible, the Bible warns you about the eternal Lake of Fire. The Bible also tells you how you can be saved from that Lake of Fire. Your reward will be eternity in heaven with Jesus when you die if you heed the call to the answer for salvation from the Lake of Fire.

Death is coming for all of us. No matter what trials you go through in life, heaven will be your home if you heed the warning and obey Gods judgments. No matter how scary the times are, eternity with Jesus will be your resting place if you heed the warning and obey Gods judgments.

Salvation from sin and its consequences in Hell will be your reward.

How do you attain the reward? The Bible says, call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Cor. 1:2). You can have the forgiveness of sins and eternal life in heaven if you place your faith in Jesus Christ. He alone can save you.

The Bible says, Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved (Acts 16:31a). The Bible says, if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved (Romans 10:9, NASB95).

You can make the greatest decision you will ever make today by trust in Jesus Christ to forgive your sins, save you from The Lake of Fire and promise you heaven when you die.

Call out to Jesus today, and be saved. And if you do trust in Jesus to save you, let me know at pastorandyfbcperry@gmail.com.

The Bible is essential for your life.
