WATCH: Psychologist Jordan Peterson stuns atheist debaters in viral exchange

May 27, 2025

From Fox News: Famed Canadian psychologist and speaker Jordan Peterson debated twenty atheists in a video posted Sunday that quickly went viral after Peterson shocked the group by refusing to clarify whether he’s a Christian.

The academic appeared on the YouTube channel Jubilee in a video currently titled, “Jordan Peterson vs 20 Atheists” on Sunday. The video was originally titled, “1 Christian vs 20 atheists,” according to Newsweek.

The popular YouTube channel frequently publishes videos where one person debates 20-25 other people who hold a contrary view on politics, religion or other polarizing issues.

In the roughly-90-minute video, Peterson debated several atheists on claims about belief in God, Christianity and atheism. About halfway through the video, one debater who said his name was “Danny,” pressed Peterson on his understanding of Catholicism, as Peterson reportedly attends a Catholic Church with his wife, who converted to Catholicism last year.

During the debate with Danny, Peterson ended up dodging a question about his own personal convictions, refusing to answer whether he was, in fact, a Christian himself.
