    Re: Selling You Snake Short

    I believe everything has a soul, including plants. Now, I don't treat my plants like I do my cats and snakes, but you get it.

    I do believe that more animals have souls than humans do in some cases.

    Re: Selling You Snake Short

    And the angel of the Lord came unto me,
    Snatching me up from my place of slumber,
    And took me on high, and higher still until we
    Moved in the spaces betwixt the air itself.
    And he bore me unto a vast farmland of our own midwest,
    And as we descended cries of impending doom rose from the soil.
    One thousand, nay, a million voices full of fear.
    And terror possessed me then.
    And I begged,

    "Angel of the Lord, what are these tortured screams?"
    And the angel said unto me,
    "These are the cries of the carrots,
    The cries of the carrots.
    You see, reverend Maynard, tomorrow is harvest day
    And to them it is the holocaust."
    And I sprang from my slumber drenched in sweat
    Like the tears of one millions terrified brothers
    And roared,
    "Hear me now,
    I have seen the light,
    They have a consciousness,
    They have a life,
    They have a soul.
    Damn you!
    Let the rabbits wear glasses,
    Save our brothers...can I get an amen?
    Can I get a hallelujah? thank you, Jesus.


    Rep point for the first person who knows what this is from.

    I'm a fan of that band (unless they borrowed it), but had to google it so it doesn't count

    Didn't google it so I'm not sure I'm right, but my guess would be Tool (mostly going off of the Maynard reference...)

    Re: Selling You Snake Short

    I believe snakes can and do have emotions. They may not be nearly as close to emotional beings as humans, but to say they have no emotion seems sort of... ludicrous to me.

    Disgustipated! Had to pull up my albums on iTunes to get it though. I'll rep the person that tells me who was the first "person" to coin the expression.
