Shapiro only has a B.A.
Peterson is fully qualified to talk on psychological markers for alcoholism, and a broad range of clinical psychology, and not much else.
They are both (educated) bullshit merchants, not intellectuals. Intellectuals are honest.
Meh, JD is an entry-level law qualification: "in Canada, it is considered a second-entry bachelor's degree." [Wikipedia] In any case, it's a professional qualification, not an academic one.
That is absolutely incorrect. A JD is a juris doctorate and is considered a postgraduate degree in the United States. There are some places where law degrees are granted at the bachelor's level, but not the US. You're making the same mistake as the Rogan crowd here by looking at a surface level, single sentence from Wikipedia (which is referring to the Canadian system btw). The law degree itself is only "entry level" because JD holders have to pass a licensure exam (the "professional qualification) before they are allowed to be practicing attorneys. There are quite a few people who have law degrees, but don't take the exam because they intend to use their law degrees in other ways.
Ok fair enough. I am not familiar with the American academic legal system. I do not appreciate being likened to the "Rogan crowd".
The fact about it being a professional qualification rather than an academic one stands, then, I take it?
Is English not your first language?
The JD is a doctorate level degree granted by law schools, and American law schools only accept people who already have a bachelor's level education at a minimum. Like I said in my other comment, the bar exam is the exam people with JD degrees can take to become licensed attorneys. their membership in the Bar Association is their professional qualification.
Aww, did someone get sad sad when their favourite christofascist caught the bad words on teh interwebs? It's ok booboo, Benny is still here and he's still making all the lady parts dwy. Don't you listen to the naughty haters!
