It's pretty amazing that this stuff still goes on. Anyone see the videos of these religious nutcases?

May the pastor rest in peace~however Its hard to understand why they take such a huge risk!

He proved a nutcase even without the snakes by refusing medical attention. Idiot.

Pastor Andrew Hamblin is about an hour away from me, I thought about driving up and catching a service.

Their faith. I assume we can't discuss religion, but the fact that Mr Science just debated Evolution vs Creationism.

And they're smart enough to handle rattlers so they aren't bitten, too.

My first wife's grandparents were some of those very serious Southern Baptists.


No drinking, no dancing, talk in tongues (gibberish) and snake handling (kissing rattlesnakes).


Her grandfather came very close to dying after a bite. Luckily his son in law, who had power of attorney, signed for the docs to medicate the old lunatic...



It IS one weird ass bunch of religious fruitcakes for sure....

Southern Baptists don't handle snakes. However, there are many unorganized groups of baptist churches. Anyone can start a church and call it something baptist, as long as not southern baptist. It's pretty much the only one that does have some governing body. Most snake handling churches are Pentecostal. There is an unorganized sect of baptists called Primitive Baptist that is very close to Pentecostal. My grandmother was raised Pentecostal and they were into speaking in tongues, holy rolling, the gift of translation (the ones that can translate someone speaking in tongues) but they didn't do the snakes or drinking poison. And today when talking to my cousin and this snake handling preacher came up, I found out that apparently my grandmother also doesn't believe we ever went to the moon.

We just use the old AR-15 or the .40 cal on the rattlers and copperheads here in Texas. Nothing like a good snake for target practice.

Speaking of target practice..... I have a client that had his 65" Fujitsu plasma bite the dust. That thing was 20K when I sold it to him originally.

So......

we are going to set up some high speed cameras and shoot it!

I will post the video..........

Damn left coast liberals just can't get it right.

The earth is flat, 5000 years old, Jesus was white (with long flowing hair) and there ain't no damn monkey in my family tree.

And black holes are a myth, or are they..... Maybe they were swallowed up by a worm hole...... I can't keep it straight, but I'm sure we will figure it out some day, until it changes again......
