That's the thing, if he is teaching all these young people these important ideas (which are not new) then great, I can ignore all his other nonsense which he seems to be distancing himself from these days.
What was an eye opener for me was my friend in Iceland who is a rabid fan of his, he's 27 bought his book, I have over the years sent him all kinds of neat and though provoking youtube videos, so he loaned me the book and was very excited to talk to me after I read it.
I realized just how little people under 35 have any conception of what I and older people take for granted, young men are not taught life skills, they are lost and looking for direction.
No matter how laughable his weird christian religious beliefs, his word salad, he does reach a positive message to young men who clearly need it.
