If you’re not familiar with Jordan Peterson, you should be. A wave of support has been bubbling below the surface of the ridiculous political and social commentary on television and the web. And he’s attracting a HUGE following.

Recently, at a lecture (that was more like a rock concert from the look and feel of the audience), he took anonymous questions. Then, when he read one, the mood got quite serious. A writer for Chicks On the Right was there, and she said this was the most unforgettable moment of all:

Dr. Peterson warned the audience that he was about to read a serious question. He even seemed reluctant to read it at all, but after a few seconds of quiet reflection, he then decided to go ahead.

He read, “I plan on taking my life very soon. Why shouldn’t I?”

You could have heard a pin drop.

His answer is preserved below in the YouTube video, if you’d like to hear it. But the Chicks On the Right writer found it to be very moving… so much so that she was still thinking about it the following day.

I don’t know about the rest of the audience, but it was hard for me to get over that question. I couldn’t help think about the fact that someone in the same audience, the same room, had reached a level of desperation that prompted him to reach out to Dr. Peterson in the way he did.

After the event, a person named Chad tweeted, “Hey dr. Peterson. It’s Chad. You read my serious question tonight at the lecture. I just want you to know that you may have diverted me onto a different path. I am probably going to check myself into a hospital tomorrow night. Thank you.”

Peterson responded, “I am absolutely thrilled to hear this.”

I am absolutely thrilled to hear this.

What a moment for the crowd full of young people, desperate for truth.

You should pay attention to Jordan Peterson. Because he’s what’s happening. Or, at the very least, he’s a great representative of it. He’s the real deal, a genuine, caring, intellectual, hip warrior for Western civilization.

What a moment.
