Jordan Peterson has said a lot of things about cosmic order and human psychology that have been very helpful for people seeking moral grounding in their life.
Despite teaching extensively on the biblical ethos, however, he's refused to define or label what he believes about God.
That led to this exchange 👇
[Mild Language Warning]
Smug atheist: You go to a Catholic church, don't you? You've attended recently. You're interested in Catholicism, aren't you?
Peterson: Sure.
Atheist: Alright, are you familiar with their doctrines?
Peterson: Somewhat.
Atheist: Okay ... how do they regard Mary?
Peterson: Why are you asking me that?
Atheist: Because you're a Christian.
Peterson: You say that; I haven't claimed that.
It was over from that point, ladies and gentlemen.
Atheist: What is this? Christians versus atheists?
Peterson: I don't know.
Atheist: You don't know where you are right now.
Peterson: Don't be a smart a**, and I mean it, because I won't talk to you if you're a smart a**.
Atheist: Well, either you're a Christian, or you're not. Which one is it?
Peterson: I could be either of them, but I don't have to tell YOU.
Atheist: You don't have to tell me. I was under the impression - I was invited to talk to a Christian. Am I not talking to a Christian?
Peterson: No, you were invited to —
Atheist: I think everyone should look at the title of the YouTube channel. You're probably in the wrong YouTube video.
Jordan: You're really quite something, you are.
Atheist: Aren't I? But you're really quite nothing.
Painful.
'Anyone who is not with me is against me, and anyone who does not gather with me scatters.' - Jesus, Matthew 12:30
Jesus did not leave us the option of Him being a wise man with insightful psychological insight that helps us clean our rooms.
He is either a lunatic, a liar, or Lord. You either believe Him, or you don't. It's all or nothing.
The atheist understood that.
I'll leave you with this beautiful exposition of the Gospel, where country singer John Rich called Peterson out for his intellectual aloofness 👇
Praying that God continues stirring Peterson's heart to pick a side.
