It certainly showed me that all these rules and teachings the early Christians left us weren't just so powerful old men could oppress and tyrannize us. It's as if they got written down for an actual reason. Imagine that
Though, honestly, it was more Jordan Peterson showing me that, and then the way the troon train's gone full speed ahead ever since gay marriage became a non-issue really drove Peterson's point home for me. Pretty sad it takes a non-Christian to show people why a "dusty old book" is still worth keeping around, but I digress.
edit: am Christian so maybe that colors my perspective, but fwiw, when I encountered Peterson I wasn't Christian. Grew up in it but decided I was agnostic, then ran into Peterson's videos
