funny i just commented on another one of these, but honestly have any of you had a conversation with a snake, not to be rude but don't burst someones bubble just because u think they can or can have emotions, seriously, how do you know dogs have emotions, just because they like to be petted doesn't necessarily mean they feel emotion, or does it, it would seem they do because they keep letting you do it, maybe snakes do like to be held maybe they don't, maybe it just takes domesticating them for them to tolerate it, just like dogs, when they were wild, they wouldn't have thought twice at attacking you, until one day someone fed it, gave it water, kept feeding it, up until today when they are a socially acceptable animal. Don't reem me for this, but it is just how i feel on the subject, people are gonna think what they want no matter what I say you say or anyone else. It is my own experience that people don't like change especially the way they think, but it is possible with time.
