編輯室 2022 三月 14日, 星期一 14:40 (圖:flickr) 「聖經是西方文明基石,性別迷惑是文明崩潰標誌」,臨床心理學家佐敦·彼德遜(Jordan Peterson)出席一節目論到性別認同人士難以定義自己身分,源於「創造力」。 彼德遜在出席博客節目,分享參觀華盛頓特區聖經博物館「書籍歷史展區」,看到當中陳設《聖經》感悟聖經孕育出西方各種學說,各式各樣類型的書籍源自聖經的價值觀,例如莎士比亞劇作也受聖經文本影響。 他認為,聖經是文本的基石,大多數學術、文學思想源自聖經,不過西方文明趨向衰落,性別迷惑衝擊這塊文明板塊。 彼德遜直指,當今社會崩潰,人們被性別認同吸引源自「創造力」,性別認同者常常提出的論調認為「自己的靈魂錯誤地被身體禁錮著」,這種思想好比1980年代日託中心出現的撒旦儀式虐待案,當時的婦女大量進入勞動市場,將孩子留給陌生人,同時恐懼孩子被虐待,因而產生病態的聯想,是一種接近邊緣的精神分裂症。 性別認同者將這種幻想在群體中傳播開去,源自他們對性別認同不穩定,創造出一套性別障礙理論,想改變自己的性別身分,彼德遜斷然不認同這樣做法,但社會確實存在這種現象。Like Us on Facebook 烏克蘭難民恐被販賣 宣明會輔導離散兒童 馬偕赴台宣教150周年 教界創作音樂重遊淡水 Top StoriesContinue Reading
