Who is this Dr. Peterson anyway and why is he corroborating with a UFO "expert"? I just find it unlikely that they'd try to develop a system that is not only capable of replacing the dollar but can actually undermine it. Also, all the alt coins that resulted from the innovation of bitcoin would all also be hard to control.
Too bad he's no longer around to Hitchslap people. That was a really nice quote from him.
Christopher Hitchens presents conspiracy theories as the "exhaust fumes of democracy", the unavoidable result of a large amount of information circulating among a large number of people.

Well, I never understood his obssesion with militant atheism - perhaps bad experience with some backwards believing folk, BUT I liked and respected him as a thinker. I have to wonder what he would have to say today with islamists and social justice warrior running rampant. We live in no less interesting age, than he did.
He was definitely a firebrand. When I see some documentary with him or Dawkins though, I kinda admire their patience when dealing with nutjobs. I mean, some people they've encountered would have already elicited hisses or contemptuous laughter from the general population but most of the time they let the person finish.
He's still probably be furious with the Islamists. I'm not sure about the sjws though I suppose they way those are acting now would probably, erm, trigger him.
Even Sam Harris get pissed off with those people.
