I'm a Christian, too...and it saddens me that just because there are idiots out there that say they are Christians that people think all Christians are idiots. Being one myself, it's natural that I also know LOTS of Bible-believing Christians...and I don't know a single one who believes snakes are "evil." They may have the same kinds of dislikes and misconceptions of snakes as anyone else, but the "evilness" of them never enters the conversation.

I'm quite sure there are "Bible-thumpers" out there that use the Creation story to justify their prejudices against snakes...just as they use it to justify every other judgemental attitude they have against the world. But please don't think we're all like that.

Off my now....sorry!

The best (worst??? LOL) question I ever had was when I was talking to a very hoity-toity lady about what I want for my future and I mentioned a dream of breeding snakes. She gets a look of horror on her face and says "How in the world do you breed snakes???"
