In this episode of The Patrick Coffin Show, host Coffin critiques a recent interview between Jordan Peterson and Zeena Schreck, daughter of Anton Szandor LeVay (born Levey, 1930-1997). With direct quotes, Coffin expresses concern over the normalization of occult and satanic figures in mainstream discussions, arguing that Peterson's platforming of Schreck inadvertently lends credibility to her controversial past as a high priestess in the church of satan.
Coffin dissects the conversation, highlighting what appears to be Peterson's failure to critically engage with the spiritual dangers associated with the new tantric Buddhism, which replaced her Satanism after a leadership stint in the Sethian Liberation Movement (SLM), another occultic sect.
She has distanced herself from her previous satanic beliefs, but the Peterson interview fails to provide cautionary context regarding the influences of diabolical ideologies. Confused and suffering people like Zeena Schreck deserve the clarity of the fullness of truth and healing found uniquely in Christ. Peterson’s gnostic-Jungian biases, however, seem to prevent him from bringing an objective, biblical critique to the self-rationalizing narrative laid down by his guest.
The episode encourages listeners to approach crucial interviews like this with discernment, especially when discussing spirituality and metaphysical basics like good and evil— matters that not only impact personal perceptions of morality and faith, but of reality itself.
