Re: Snake salvation....WTF
That show is ridiculous. Saw a guy get bit by a Cottenmouth. Since their beliefs they refuse to use antivenom, so he layed in bed in agony..really..that show just kills me.

Those types of churches have been around way too long.

Re: Snake salvation....WTF
You shouldn't have posted this haha. Now I am tempted to ridicule a certain group of people we aren't supposed to talk about in this forum.

Re: Snake salvation....WTF
There was an article on them that I read. They basically starve them to death and keep them cold so that they don't have any fight in them, and it lessens their chance of getting bit. They live their whole lives in these small boxes just big enough for them to fit in, and one church's snakes they quoted the average time that they last at 6 months before they died. I honestly don't support them, and I don't think they should not be allowed to continue. They are just a group of glorified animal abusers.
Here's that article I read.
Serpent Experts Try To Demystify Pentecostal Snake Handling : NPR
EDIT: re-read it's 3-4 months and they keep multiple snakes in small boxes.

Re: Snake salvation....WTF
Wow. this needs to be publicized That's just horrible. But I'm kinda glad they get bitten on occasion anyways; abusing and torturing animals for "religion" makes me glad that there are going to be a few less of them out there. Nasty people
