How I Made Scientific and God’s Peace with the Bryan Ardis Snake Venom Conspiracy Theory of COVID-19 and the Vaccines
I like Bryan Ardis. I like Stew Peters. I love Stew’s show. I love that Stew Peters gives people like Bryan Ardis a forum, when nobody else will. Thanks to Stew Peters, critical messages from Peter McCullough, Robert Malone, Jane Ruby, Karen Kingston, and many others have gotten out to the world. Even earlier messages from Bryan Ardis. In my opinion, Stew’s a hero.
However, getting the TRUTH out has a price. Sometimes stuff that’s not quite truth rides along with it.
A recent special presentation of the Stew Peters Show called Watch The Water – which is basically an interview of Bryan Ardis by Stew – is an excellent example of paying that price.
I’m not going to review the whole thing. Let me just say that Bryan Ardis makes some great scientific analogies (which many of us professional scientists have made, over the last two years), but then overdoes them by asserting they are LITERAL REALITY.
OY VEY!
Many of us have used protein venoms as a teaching tool about the pathogenicity of the spike protein. I have done MULTIPLE posts talking about the spike protein, and even called it the “snake protein” in quotes.
In fact, the title of the first reference below is pretty much my argument with Bryan Ardis.
Using Principles of Protein Equivalence and Analogy as Predictive Tools for Coronavirus Understanding Surely you’ve heard of the BROWN RECLUSE SPIDER. The brown recluse is related to several other recluses, and a couple of other families of spiders, that all have a similar venom – a protein called sphingomyelinase D. This is an enzyme that …
TL;DR – you MUST listen to a short podcast of a scientist revealing the latest research on the spike protein vaccines. The VACCINE ITSELF (not just the spike protein – the mRNA vaccine itself) is persistent and is not only concentrating in ovaries – THE VACCINE ITSELF IS EXCRETED – e.g., in breast milk. Meaning …
A Beautiful Demonstration of Real Science in Action, and How Political Correctness Prevents Obvious Correlations and Causations From Being Seen by Monetarily Dependent Scientists Being “Sherlock Holmes” is easy, when everybody else in mainstream science has turned into a character from “The Muppets” or “Sesame Street”. Except for Dr. Charles Hoffe, plus a bunch of …
As a young science student in the 1970s, I never would have thought that I would have to correct the American and global media over an issue of late 19th century basic science, but yet, here we are. When basic theories of MATTER and CHEMISTRY proved that “Compound A created by one route has the …
However, in science, just like math, there is a difference between ANALOGY and EQUIVALENCE.
So here is an analogy about analogies not being equivalence.
Ardis’ mistake would be (somewhat badly) analogous to going from “Helium inhalation makes people talk like Donald Duck, which is so gay,” to “Helium inhalation is a Disney plot to turn kids gay.”
Yeah, these statements are kinda similar, but they are NOT identical.
Ardis didn’t HAVE TO GO all the way to saying “it’s not a virus and a spike protein – it’s snake venom”, and “remdesivir is really snake venom”, but he did, and now it’s too late.
I highly recommend just watching the video. Yes, it’s an hour that you will never get back, but I only ask that you watch it until you either finish it, or turn it off and shake your head.
I think I’ve found all the “watch the water” links.
However, I am going to add one more, as a kind of “negative control”.
You see, almost anything can be “watch the water” if you look hard enough.
eilert brought in this tweet video, and EllieLA noted that the surfer sails past a large and almost distinct “Q” composed of foam on the water – beginning at exactly 17 seconds.
See for yourself!

So – is THAT what “watch the water” – the QAnon phrase – means?
Or does it mean, like the title implies, that they’re putting VENOMS in the water supply?
Who KNOWS what it means? There have been literally HUNDREDS of speculations as to what “watch the water” means.
Frankly, at this point, my “care” is on hold.
What I DO care about is anything that we can PROVE, or even just prove to be PROBABLY TRUE.
In the context of the TITLE of the Stew Peters documentary, the use of the phrase “watch the water” is clearly a tie to the QAnon saying, but IMO it will do neither the QAnon people nor the COVID critics any good.
I just shake my head thinking that Ardis is invoking QAnon to “prove” his contention, when it’s far more likely that he’s helping “snake venom in drinking water” and “QAnon” undergo some kind of mutual annihilation.
In other words, “Thanks for the help we didn’t need, and didn’t ask for. In fact, if you don’t mind, you can have your shit sandwich back – I’m not hungry.”
I’m not angry at Ardis – in fact, I’m seriously excited about the possibility of making some excellent lemonade out of the lemons he gave us. And I’m not alone. Here is Jordan Sather’s critique of the interview, which he posted on Telegram (h/t GA/FL).
Watched Stew’s “Watch the Water” video with Dr. Bryan Ardis. (I find it funny Stew calls Q a deep state op, but names his movie after a common Q-ism, ‘watch the water’. Helps with marketing I suppose. Though that’s not the point here..)
I think Ardis is onto something, but not the something he thinks he’s onto. He makes a variety of jumps to conclusions that I don’t think are rooted in sound logic. For instance, “because it’s in the TV show, it must be real”, “if the CDC says don’t do it, then do it”, “if the fact checkers debunk it, it must be real”, etc.
Also still going on with this “there’s no such thing as a virus” line – I don’t resonate with this.
I think it’s possible that snake genes were used in the production of the COVID virus, along with bat DNA, eye of newt, toe of frog, and whatever the heck else they used for the witches brew. Who the heck knows. Could this explain some of his points with remdesivir, monoclonal antibodies, and fact checkers he brought up? There are other claims he makes that I think are far fatched though.
I definitely don’t think they put snake venom in water supplies around the country and that’s what caused the “COVID outbreak”. A bioengineered virus and faulty PCR tests are reasonable enough explanations.
One point: the mainstream media is going to have a field day with hit pieces on this one, seeing as people are already sharing it all over the place like it’s fact. And I think this is only going to add to the confusion when trying to wake normies up about COVID. “Now you think it’s snake venom and viruses don’t exist you crazy conspiracy theorist??”. Only going to make life tougher on ourselves.
I’m not totally sold on this doc and do think there’s a possibility of it being a red herring. Don’t let your guard down.
My two cents on it.
This is one of the reasons I follow Jordan Sather – he is open-minded yet SO level-headed. I totally agree with what he’s saying here.
And while we’re at it, here is another TWO-HOUR interview of Ardis by RedPill78.
This interview is VERY interesting, because Ardis talks about Trump’s position on vaccines, and various attempts to set up meetings between Trump and various vaccine opponents, including Ardis and Peter McCullough.
His take on Trump and vaccines may shock a lot of MAGA people.
Also note that around 33-36 minutes into the video, Ardis acknowledges many scientists holding MY viewpoint on this – that SARS-CoV-2 is the agent, being a virus with a venom-like spike protein – although he calls this viewpoint “agreeing with him”. In other words, his fallback position is – COUGH, COUGH – my position.
*SMIRK*
NOW – let’s get to my NEW AND IMPROVED take on all of this.
At first, I was thinking that I was going to have to do a lot of “defending” of truth and basic logic here, but really, the truth defends itself. You know damn well “they” are not putting snake venom in the water supply. You know in your gut that remdesivir isn’t snake venom.
Whether certain key sequences were put into the spike protein is a question that is exquisitely up for grabs – THAT is a real question. We see HIV-related sequences, we know what those sequences DO, that they are in the right place, that they do what is predicted, and we know that they were patented, etc. Smoking guns.
We ALSO see amino acid sequences related to venomous snakes, but they’re the wrong type of venom – mostly neurotoxic – whereas I personally found the ‘snake venom” pharmacological linkage closer to hemotoxic venoms. Whatever. Please note that *I* was primarily using protein snake venoms as an ANALOGY to show why the pathogenic and hemotoxic spike protein was a BAD CHOICE as an immunogen. My analogy doesn’t require similar sequences, although that would be interesting.
But “they’re” not putting venom in the water supply to cause COVID-19. The idea doesn’t jibe with the facts on any end of the assertion. I leave that to YOU to work out.
Remdesivir – the horrible bad drug that it is – has no need of being snake venom.
The OUTCOMES are still the same.
Don’t let anybody give you remdesivir. Don’t take any drugs from a lying company like Pfizer. This is all very simple. I don’t NEED snake venom for any of it.
The only reason *I* needed to invoke “snake venom” was to help people understand why the spike protein was so nasty, and clearly responsible for the fact that the COVID vaccines were every bit as bad as the disease – maybe WORSE.
SO – here is where I suddenly laugh at the frogs jumping needlessly in the water to “get away” from me – a person who has no intention of harming them.
For ALL the bitching and blog-posting that I did, trying to get people to learn a little biology and pharmacology about protein toxins, and how SNAKE VENOMS and SPIDER VENOMS demonstrated the plausibility of a toxic spike protein in the vaccines, causing both disease and vaccine injuries, I probably enlightened a few dozen people, TOPS.
But CHECK THIS OUT. Bryan Ardis’ stuff now has engagement in the MILLIONS.
Bryan Ardis is dropping a BOMB on the other side, that is MISSING the target, but it is going to wake a LOT of people up – in a way that I had hoped to do, but could not.
The parts of what Ardis is saying that are WRONG are going to get “washed away”, so to speak.
But the parts that are right – meaning getting people to think about venoms as very much analogous to the spike protein – that is gonna STICK.
And in my opinion, THAT is GOD’S WORK.
So, is this “How I learned to stop worrying and love the bombshell?”
Maybe so.
Yup. The frogs jump in stupidly, but they’re still God’s wonderful creatures, and they do what they do for a reason.

This Sanctuary Sunday Open Thread, with full respect to those who worship God on the Sabbath, is a place to reaffirm our worship of our Creator, our Father, our King Eternal.
It’s also a place to read, post, and discuss news that is worth knowing and sharing. Please post links to any news stories that you use as sources or quote from.
In the QTree, we’re a friendly and civil lot. We encourage free speech and the open exchange and civil discussion of different ideas. Topics aren’t constrained, and sound logic is highly encouraged, all built on a solid foundation of truth and established facts.
We have a policy of mutual respect, shown by civility. Civility encourages discussions, promotes objectivity and rational thought in discourse, and camaraderie in the participants – characteristics we strive toward in our Q Tree community.
Please show respect and consideration for our fellow QTreepers. Before hitting the “post” button, please proofread your post and make sure you’re addressing the issue only, and not trying to confront the poster. Keep to the topic – avoid “you” and “your”. Here in The Q Tree, personal attacks, name-calling, ridicule, insults, baiting, and other conduct for which a penalty flag would be thrown are VERBOTEN.
In The Q Tree, we’re compatriots, sitting around the campfire, roasting hot dogs, making s’mores, and discussing, agreeing, and disagreeing about whatever interests us. This board will remain a home for those who seek respectful conversations.
Praying “Thy will be done” gives me great calm For our vic’try is by God’s holy arm Showered by His blessings from high above Our Father in heaven, author of Love
Thy Will Be Done
Lord I pray to be led to and by you, My thoughts, my speech, in all that I do Make my whole life a reflection of Yours. Lord, straighten my paths and open my doors.
Let my whole will be under Your care, Guide all my life and guide me in prayer. Without Your grace I’d have nothing at all, Nothing but sin and my own shortfalls.
Guide me, I pray, to be closer to You; Fill me with blessings, not just a few. Give me the courage to follow Your Way, And the strength to walk it, every day.
Be here beside me through good times and bad, Along life’s ways, though happy or sad. And when my journey is finally done, Let my last thoughts be “Thy will be done.”
Thy Will . . . Not Mine
“Thy will be done” is one of the requests in the Lord’s Prayer. In part, Jesus taught His disciples to pray, “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:9–10). Jesus Himself pleaded for God’s will to be done in the Garden of Gethsemane.
Prior to His crucifixion, Jesus prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as You will” (Matthew 26:39). Jesus was committed to seeing God’s will accomplished, and the prayer “Thy will be done” was a theme of His life.
Most simply, to pray, “Thy will be done,” is to ask God to do what He desires. Of course, we’re praying to the God Who spoke all of creation into existence and Who said, “Let there be light,” and there was light (Genesis 1:3), so we know that . . .
. . . God’s sovereign decree will be accomplished, whether or not we pray for it.
But there is another aspect of God’s will, which we call His “revealed” will or “preceptive” will. This is God’s “will” that He has revealed to us but that He does not force upon us. For example, it is God’s will that we speak the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15) and that we not commit adultery (1 Corinthians 6:18) or get drunk (Ephesians 5:18). When we pray, “Thy will be done,” we are asking God to increase righteousness in the world, to bring more people to repentance, and to further the cause of the kingdom of His Son.
When we pray, “Thy will be done,” we acknowledge God’s right to rule. We do not pray, “My will be done”; we pray, “Thy will be done.” Asking that God’s will be done is a demonstration of our trust that He knows what is best. It is a statement of submission to God’s ways and His plans. We ask for our will to be conformed to His.
The Lord’s Prayer begins by acknowledging God as Father in heaven. Jesus then presents three requests to the Father: 1) That God would cause His name to be hallowed; in other words, that God would act in such a way that he visibly demonstrates his holiness and his glory. That God would bring His kingdom to earth; that is, that the preaching of the gospel would convert sinners into saints who walk in the power of the Holy Spirit and that God would rid the world of evil and create the new heavens and new earth where God will dwell with His people and there will be no more curse and no more death (see Revelation 21—22). 3) That God’s will would be done “on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:10). In heaven, the angels perform God’s desire completely, joyfully, and immediately—what a world this would be if humans acted like that!
“Thy will be done” is not an impassive prayer of resignation. Jesus’ prayer in Gethsemane was not passive or fatalistic in the least; He bared His heart before the Father and revealed His ultimate desire: for God’s will to be accomplished. Praying, “Thy will be done,” acknowledges that God has more knowledge than we do and that we trust His way is best. And it is a commitment to actively work to further the execution of God’s will.
Romans 12:1–2 says, “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Understanding who God is, we submit ourselves to Him and allow Him to transform us. The more we know God, the more readily our prayers will align with His will and we can truly pray, “Thy will be done.” We can approach God in confidence that “if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us” (1 John 5:14–15).
By faith, we know that praying, “Thy will be done,” is the best thing we can ask for.
“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen” (Ephesians 3:20–21).
Thy Will Be Done
The winds shriek and howl and the waters churn, But we don’t listen. Will we ever learn? This wicked world seeks wealth, fame and power, But God owns this day, and this is His hour.
Our Father in Heaven, we turn to You, For only You know just what to do. You are our Father who always cares, And we come to You humbly, with our prayers.
We pray for the safety of those in harm’s way, Hold them in Your hands all through these days. We pray for the peace of those who now fear, Hold them in Your arms. Let them know You’re near.
We pray for Your blessings on those who give aid, Hold them on Your paths, never to stray. We pray for Your guidance to those who lead, Hold them to Your will and care for their needs.
We pray for ourselves, to find when we seek, That our walk with You be humble and meek. We pray for our country, that all turn to You For guidance and blessings in all that we do.
Although we pray for our safety today, We know that Your will is the only Way. We know that our sin hinders Your peace, But when Your Truth triumphs, then sin will cease.
And though we are destined for war and strife, We look to our future, for You are our Life. Safety and peace: it’s for those we plead, But when all’s said and done, it’s revival we need.
May we turn to You for our joy and peace, For in our blessed future, they will never cease. We’re not of this world, and so we pray For Your coming quickly. May this be the day.
Until that day when You come in the clouds, May we turn to You in throngs and crowds; But no matter what happens, the things to come, We pray above all that Thy will be done.
In my opinion, everybody needs to watch this video, to understand the viral nature of what is then easily seen as the trans identity error, and how it spreads.
This is a complex subject, but at its foundation is (in my opinion) a very simple, almost child-like error – that a “desired non-self” can be obtained against the will of the universe by changing the self into that non-self. You will see how internet image memes were consciously used to promote and spread this error.
The internet has promoted this kind of immature thinking in many ways, as a byproduct of both the viral-enhancing and spiritual-enabling nature of the internet. At the same time that the internet allows us to reach every human mind, in principle, it also allows new kinds of error to flow and to grow. The spiritual nature of the internet, for good and bad, is REAL.
For every Duchess meme, spreading the Good News which allows us to appreciate what we have and what we will have, there are antithetical memes and meme-spreaders who seek to make us envy the very objects of our desire, and then to attempt to falsely become those things.
Listen carefully to understand that Facebook is seeking to create a future where this kind of error is even more possible, more likely, and more difficult to avoid. Instead of becoming stronger, spiritually, to contain actual error, Facebook, under election criminal Mark Zuckerberg, creates a new world of even more error, which can deceive even more strongly.
This young lady is one of the most articulate and insightful people I’ve ever heard. Clearly she would have been a “win” for the other side. As it is now, she exposes the trans error at levels I never expected.
Please watch the entire interview, and leave your comments and thoughts below.

PS – if this video disappears, look for it on Michael Knowles’ channel on Rumble:
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
And indeed, it’s Monday…again.
But we WILL get through it!
…and we will have fun doing it, too!
The Rules
Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.
You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.
Call To Battle
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.
We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.
Joe Biden didn’t win.
And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.
