My mom is fairly religious, and as per christian beliefs - she believes that all snakes are the mouthpiece of the devil. So she warns me not to listen to them if they start speaking.
Other than that, she calls my house the Zooarium, and just requires that the snakes stay IN their tubs/tanks whenever she's there. Except usually my little 14 year old sister is with her, and LOVES to hold them. So she normally wants to hold the biggest ones
I have always found it interesting that the creation story seems to override the multiple other stories in the bible that have more positive view on snakes... but that would require people to actually read more than just the first chapter lol
