Answer 3

yes there are snake handlers in Kentucky, its sort of a crazy Christian Religious Cult. To prove their devotion to God they play with poisonous snakes and when they don't bite they say say that God keeps their mouths closed. Apparently the first few times you do it you do get bitten but there are medical personal to handle it so they aren't stupid. You would be amazed how many religions there are! A character in the play "Talking With" is a snake handler, its a very fascinating monologue!

Answer 4

I think the cobra handlers in Calcutta or Thailand do a better job,,
the venom is much more deadly than the eastern timber rattler
and they do it for entertainment, not some bible simulator trick
Oh and don't forget your canning jar of strychnine

Answer 5

The Bible also says "Judas hung himself" "Go and do likewise" and "whatsoever thou do, doest quickly."

I'm not recommending you do that. Just take things in context.

"Do not tempt God" means just that. He doesn't contradict Himself by saying handle deadly snakes and drink poison. But, if the believer is bitten by a deadly snake as one of the apostles was (Paul? Peter?) that we can have faith that God will heal us. Same with the drinking poison.
