Absolutely not!
That SOB Darwin believed in ::gasp:: evolution.
Welp, that’s the last time he’ll handle snakes on this Plane.
And just last week, he got a new set of vipers for his car.
Yeah, he was kind of an asp-hole, wasn’t he?
From the OP’s link:
I wonder what the poor snake did to piss off God.
This is what happens when men with insufficient training are allowed to handle fedoras.
“The snake-handling pastor’s son, Cody Coots, told the TV station his dad had been bit eight times before, but never had had such a severe reaction. The son said he had thought the bite would be just like all the others.”

Thus the preacher considered the snake bites to be painful, but not deadly. This is why he refused the ambulance trip to the hospital.
Is the snake okay?
This was just covered on the local Noon News with a clip of the guy regarding his snake handling. Paraphrasing: “When I get bit, either I go home or I don’t.” So he was expecting God to intervene and ran afoul of Matt 4:5-7.
It was Allah’s will.
And the snake’s.
“I sent you a raft, a boat, and a helicopter, what more did you want?” - God
It’s sad. Simple medical treatment could have saved him.
Goes oddly with your tag-line.
Anyway, guy believed in something I don’t (and consider rather silly), got snakebit and died of it, so I GUESS THAT’LL LEARN HIM! HAW HAW HAW!!!
Simply not playing with snakes would have saved him.
Or just played with (L)adders.
Quoted just so you won’t think this went unnoticed.
Ya think? :eek:
