Kentucky Snake Pastor killed by Snake

Just goes to show what a snaky sonofabitch that Jesus is to cause that snake to kill him that way.

Seems like every Christian group swears their strange rites are the real ones.  How you supposed to know?

I guess its the same with the Muslims ...

Stay safe ...

1 Corinthians 14:19

19Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.

20Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. 21In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord. 22Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. 23If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad? 24But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: 25And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.

sometimes the subtle allegorical use of language in the bible is confusing, but the taking up of serpents can mean many things other than teasing a rattlesnake.

The genius of our ruling class is that it has kept a majority of the people from ever questioning the inequity of a system where most people drudge along, paying heavy taxes for which they get nothing in return.

You seldom, if ever see someone dedicate an entire thread to denigrating something in which they do not believe.  Why?

I don't feel threatened by Wordslinger and the other Heathens here, why do they feel so threatened simply because I, and others, have a strong faith in God?

The way I see it, I'm perfectly comfortable, and don't feel a need to attack Heathens.  Why do they feel the opposite about me?  The only explaination is that they have such a deep, inexplicable FEAR of those of faith.

May God bless you one and all.

Why you ask? Because the guy is dead. Very simple.

100% of US congress is religious.  I suspect 100% of any level of government personnel within 100 miles of Pensacola is religious.  These people legislate the morality of their fairy tales.  As a result, I have to wait to buy beer on certain days, I can't gamble, and I can't see a fully nude stripper.

That's just BS.

And even if these religious people don't procreate, they're constantly trying to infiltrate the education system in the US with their fairy tales, so they will still have means of indoctrinating children - essentially the only way they're going to get anyone to by into their ish.

Hopefully before they procreate.

You're absolutely right Herr Markle. We heathens truly fear you religious freakos. Whether you pray to snakes, the so-called virgin Mary, dead Jews, Allah or whatever, you're all bad news to most of us! And we fear you justifiably for your track record of bigoted, hate mongered, self righteous cruelty to anyone who's different. Reality!!
