well I got to respond here was my responce

I've always wondered what the motivation is behind keeping a snake for a"pet".
Typically the person has had a long time fascination with reptiles in general. Many herpetoculturist like myself will keep more than one species of reptile like geckos, snakes, small monitors ect.

Usually the snake chosen is a poisonous or otherwise dangerous variety such as a python.
Not so much in the pet trade. There is a lot of legislation in most states regarding the keeping of "hots" or venomous species as well as the giants. Because of this many of the people that maintain these animals are people with years of experience and lot of knowledge about the animals. There are a few irresponsible keepers that do cast a bad light on those that are legit. But normally the snake chosen is a colubrid like a king snake or corn snake or milk snake. Some of the most popular Pythons are Ball/Royal pythons, Carpet, and the arboreal tree pythons. Large bodied boas are next on the list but again these are typically not a first time snake are are kept by people with the understanding and reptile knowledge to properly keep the animal. There are some smaller boidae species like the Rosy, Rubber, and Sand boa that will never get any bigger than most colubrids. With all the different species and different colors and patterns that most species in the pet trade offer it can be much like picking out a living work of art.

Is it to feel powerful over family, neighbors, enemies. Unless some one is acting like a kenite, or one live in a dangerous ' hood, I see no reason to need that much feeling of power over others.
There is no feeling of power. Rather there is a feeling of awe at being able to share time with and experience one of Gods most amazing creatures. I can not say there are not a rare few that see large snakes as a power trip but of the thousands of keepers out there you'd be hard to find more than a few.

People that own a python or some other dangerous snake, do act irresponsible when the snake becomes too expensive or too much to take care of. They just let it go; either flushing it down the toilet or dumping it out in the yard or woods.
Very true there are a few people that do act inappropriately and this is a sad reality to our hobby. Which is why the reptile community is working so hard to educate new keepers and the general public about what is required to keep these animals to help better fit the right type of pet to the person. The even sadder truth is that every popular animal in the pet trade has an issue with this. Stray dogs and cats out number released reptiles by millions to one every year

Then it does become dangerous for everyone else and it is very evil.
Evil is not the right word to use you were right in that if by chance you happen to find yourself wading in the everglades and happen to find yourself facing a 15'+ hungry reticulated python or Burmese python it is dangerous...but not evil. And this is not a threat to the the people next door or even in more that one or two counties in Florida.

Too many people have dumped pythons and other dangerous snakes in Florida after they've grown bored with them and now they're a threat to everyone that comes in contact with them including our wild life.
Yes they do and this is irresponsible and fool hearted and 100% shunned by all reptile keepers that truly value our animals and love this hobby. Yes they are impacting our environment which is why we in the reptile community are working with local law makers to find a happy median that allows us to continue with the hobby we so enjoy. While weeding out those people that would use the availability of the pet trade to become repeat offenders.

Yeah, it's evil to dump a snake out into the environment that can hurt others.
Again evil is a way to extreme... irresponsible? Yes 100%, harmful to the environment? Yes it can be, in some rare instances could it pose a threat to people sure. But evil no....

I also believe that this is a gang type activity; keeping a dangerous snake.Why should a Christian be a part of a gang?
I can not speak as to whether it is a gang activity or not. I would hope that it wasn't.
How would you feel if the neighbor next door had a snake?
If the owner is responsible in the snakes care. I would feel wonderful that they are providing for an animal that they decided to take responsibility for its health and well being. If they were poorly educated as to the animals needs or irresponsible with its care I would feel as bad as if it were a dog or cat or any other pet being neglected.

There is a great fear of reptiles but snakes in general. Most of this fear is driven by people with less than little real world experience with these animals and compounded by hollywood's reality that they can turn a profit on promoting and animal as dangerous. I don't think this post will sway your fear or dislike for snakes. I know that fear is a real thing regardless of where it is based. I do however ask that people be allowed to make their decision as to whether they like snakes based on a real world experience not for what they are told by Hollywood and others with less understanding of the animals than someone who could offer proper understanding about them
