This was certainly an improvement to the gene pool. Now if we can only get the demorats and the eco-nuts to start handling snakes we will make great strides in improving the gene pool.
PREACHER DIES AFTER RATTLESNAKE BITE (from news services)
Jonesville- A preacher bitten by rattlesnake as he handled it during an Easter service at a rural church died after refusing medical treatment, authorities said.
The Rev. Dwayne Long died a day after being bitten on a finger during a service at his church, where members believe ritual serpent handling is a form of obedience to God, said Sheriff Gary Parsons.
"We don't anticipate any charges, " he said. "That's their belief."
No one attending the service at the Pentecostal church sought medical help, Parsons said. Members believe when people die from a snakebite during a service, it is a sign that it was their time to go.
