| Topic | Who is more useful? Jordan Peterson or a Psychic? |
| OmegaM 05/25/18 8:22:19 AM #6: | Did you know that Jordan Peterson actually believes that twined snakes in ancient art represent DNA? http://www.jasoncolavito.com/blog/jordan-peterson-believes-ancient-chinese-had-knowledge-of-dna-double-helix I don't know what to say to that, except that people have had so many wrong ideas about how the human body works that it would be very surprising if we had some unconscious understanding of something as microscopic as DNA. It just doesn't seem evolutionarily necessary for people to have such detailed knowledge of their bodies. Quickly Googling it suggests that twined snakes are just a yin-yang--type symbol. Maybe it's a common symbol because people do seem to have a special ability to notice snakes and snake-like objects, which presumably evolved because prehistoric people had to deal with a lot of dangerous snakes. http://www.symbolic-meanings.com/2008/10/15/double-snakes-caduceus-symbolic-meaning/ https://www.livescience.com/2348-fear-snakes.html ...
