Either I dont have the attention span and intelligence to see the genius behind his Biblical lectures and other talks (which very well can be true), or he is a mediocre thinker with compelling rhetoric skills and charisma.

I after a while got bugged out by his tensed voice and every other sentence containing "Then ----- came up with the idea of...", "which is- ... MINDBOGGLING!" or stuff like "people tell their kids there is no monster in the dark which is bullshit because there are plenty of monsters in the dark", all which he says while getting a half boner.

Also i purchased his very well marketed Authoring programs, and i dont find them extraordinary in the slightest sense. You basically just write down your goals, your problems and skills, depending on which program you take. I didn't finish any of his programs, but the stuff i did was basically like writing a diary, about your life.
Because in the nature of those entirely self-reliant programs lies their limitations, which is your own mind, the things you dont want to confront.

Allegedly, the programs dramatically lowered the drop out rate of students, and the way he talked about designing this was really intriguing. However, i'm convinced i could write a similar "program" merely consisting of a few questions you have to answer, without having to study psychology forever.

Basically, i wanted to have unbiased opinion from you /pol, about the general phenomenon of the Peterson.

Not concerning his fight for free speech so much.
