Intellectual masturbation in Neverland: a rebuke to the YouTube circle of self-important fools
Let me put this plainly. What I just watched on History Valley was not a scholarly roundtable. It was not an enlightening discussion. It was not even honest. It was a pathetic parade of self-congratulatory mental masturbation by people who think blinking slowly and quoting each other counts as wisdom. Jacob Berman, sitting there in his Neverland daze, barely able to articulate a real question, was joined by Nicholas Peter Lee, a man so thoroughly convinced that he solved the Shroud of Turin mystery with sunlight and mirrors, you would think he built a time machine to prove it. And then there’s Dr. Robert M. Price, once respected, now reduced to background wallpaper nodding like a bobblehead while surrounded by the same people who once tried to destroy him.
Let’s get something straight. Jacob Berman has no credentials in biblical scholarship. He is not a serious researcher. He is a performer with a platform built on betrayal, cancel culture, and woke hysteria. This is the same man who once burned an honorary doctorate certificate from Bob Price on camera, calling him racist, misogynist, homophobic, transphobic, and every other label the left uses when they have no arguments. And now, with the political winds shifting and Trump reelected, Berman brings Price back like nothing ever happened. No apology. No retraction. Just another pathetic episode in the intellectual circus.
And Bob Price. I defended this man. I platformed him. I paid a cost for it. People refused to come on my show because I stood by him when no one else would. Derek Lambert said no. Neil from Gnostic Informant said no. Jacob Berman said hell no. They all blacklisted him, smeared him, and now they’re crawling back. And Bob, sadly, lets them. That’s cowardice. That’s not integrity. That’s a man who wants a platform so badly he’ll forget what they did. And they did plenty. Chrissy Hansen, that deranged little boy who thinks he’s a girl, teamed up with Jacob to humiliate Bob and destroy his reputation. And now they all pretend it never happened. This is what passes for scholarship today. High school drama with footnotes.
Then you’ve got Nicholas Peter Lee on the panel telling the world that ancient people forged the Shroud of Turin using solar science and twenty-day drying processes. Really? Who in the first century had time for that? Who even had the technical understanding to execute it? This is not science. This is fantasy. This is the kind of stuff that only sounds smart when no one in the room knows how to think. And that’s the key. These YouTube panels are not about facts. They’re not about truth. They’re about performance. They’re about pretending to be smarter than everyone else while saying nothing of substance. They call themselves skeptics. But real skepticism means questioning everything, including your own echo chamber. These people cannot even do that.
They’re not questioning religion. They’re selling a new one. The cult of atheism. The doctrine of woke. The gospel of virtue signaling. It’s not about being right. It’s about being liked by the right people and shunning anyone who thinks for themselves. That’s why they hate me. I don’t bow to their program. I don’t follow their script. I am not controlled. That makes me dangerous to them.
Let’s not forget. These same people spent two years trying to cancel Bob Price because he watched Fox News and voted for Trump. They said he had to be erased. And now? Now they pretend it never happened. Now Jacob Berman is welcoming him back like a long-lost brother. That’s not growth. That’s manipulation. That’s opportunism. And Bob, for all his book knowledge, refuses to see it. Because deep down he still wants their approval. But approval from liars means nothing.
And to be clear, I bash the Bible. But I do it with facts. With textual criticism. With historical context. With intellectual honesty. I don’t just sit around trashing believers because it makes me feel superior. I want people to think for themselves. These guys just want clout. They want applause. They want to sit on Zoom calls pretending they’re Socrates while the world burns.
And the viewers? The ones who still subscribe to MythVision, to History Valley, to Gnostic Informant? You’re idiots. I said it. If you still watch those channels after all the hypocrisy, the betrayal, the moral cowardice, then you are a fool. You are the very sheep you think you’ve escaped from. You left the church and joined a cult of fake scholars with nice microphones. That is not liberation. That is delusion.
If you want the truth, come to Wise as a Serpent. You will not get lukewarm nonsense. You will not get performative skepticism. You will get raw, real, researched material that challenges your brain and confronts your soul. You will hear from someone who has lived it, studied it, and refuses to lie for clicks. I do not answer to YouTube algorithms or fake atheist mobs. I answer to truth.
So to Jacob Berman, to Nicholas Lee, to Dr. Bob Price and the rest of that sad parade, I say this. You are frauds. You are cowards. And your time is over. Your hypocrisy has been exposed. Your show is boring. Your ideas are stale. And your integrity is dead. And to the viewers: unsubscribe from the noise. Follow Wise as a Serpent if you want truth with teeth.
Veritas Lux Mea.
