Sounds like Mr Darwin sir will be able to have another crack at the snake preacher as he has vowed to keep using them in his sermons....  noooo:

Quote
The church’s unique practice is inspired by biblical verse Mark 16:18 where Jesus says true believers will be able to ‘pick up snakes with their hands and when they drink deadly poison it will not hurt them at all’.

I'm going to hazard a guess that Mark was Mr Darwin sir's pen name back in the day...  rubschin:

Quote
Cody’s mother, Linda Coots, added: ‘We are a normal family, we love each other like normal families love each other. If a snake could bite you and never hurt you, it wouldn’t be a sign to the unbelievers.’

Is this the American version of normal for Norfolk?

Just goes to show that my faith in idiocy is well placed...
