I find it amazing that God chose a snake to send satan into..............? Don't you?

Question

I mean think about the nature of a snake. They are cold, calculating, no feelings, no emotions, heck they will even try to eat their owners without a moment of regret. They don't "taste" their food or enjoy it they swallow it whole. I know the bible is the inspired word of God but for those who don't.........do you realize the people who wrote the bible had no real knowledge about snakes as they had done no "scientific testing" at that time. Isn't it amazing that for a few hundred years science seemed to prove God's reality to people, until they deliberately tried to start "denying the truth" and having willfull ignorance?

Searching for snakes may not be for everyone. Most snakes are secretive and finding them is a difficult task. Here are some tips about snake habits, so your next encounter will be more than just a chance meeting.

Laurence M. Klauber, the Museum's first herpetologist, was the first to report on the successes of road driving for snakes. Now referred to as "night-driving" or "road-cruising," snake enthusiasts will spend hours driving up and down paved roads at night in search of snakes

Snakes are most active in warm weather (75-90°F) and tend to avoid both cold and extremely hot temperatures. Search for snakes when the temperature is right. In the spring, snakes will be more active in the daytime. In the summer, when days are sweltering, snakes will be active at night.

Snakes on the move often stop and pause on surfaces that are warm in order to thermoregulate. Warm surfaces include paved streets, dirt roads, and hiking trails. Keep an eye out for snakes stretched perpendicular to the direction of travel. While good sources of heat, roads and trails are dangerous places with lots of predators. Exposed snakes often take the shortest path to get to cover on the other side.

They will bask on rocks or sun themselves before dark. When hiking in wilderness areas, southwestern facing slopes have a greater abundance of snakes. These slopes receive the last rays of the day. Rock climbers on southwestern facing slopes beware!

Snakes will wait for their prey. Look for snakes in areas with rodent activity. These include woodpiles and rocky terrain. Rodents like to run along the margins of barriers such as large boulders. Snakes will coil and wait along rodent trails.

They are secretive, so look under logs and rocks. Make sure you return the log or rock to its original position.

The most abundant snake species are Gartersnakes. Many Gartersnakes can be found in a single outing. Look in streams, ponds, and lakes. Gartersnakes may be seen along the margins, swimming underwater, or basking on rocks and floating vegetation.

Answer 1

I thought the devil himself who is the original rebellious creature was the one who chose to use the snake?

God warned and cited the consequences for the humans not to eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

You gave some fascinating facts about snakes! Way to go.

Answer 2

Today Snake is an important element both in the war industry and in biochemistry. Snake is vital for the function of reptilian cells as well as for the construction of nuclear armed walking battle tanks.

Name: Snake

Symbol: Sn

Group: Metal, Carbon group

Atomic number: 50

Atomic weight: 118.69

Density @ 293 K: 7.30 g/cm3

Atomic volume: 16.3 cm3/mol

Height: 0m

with Wings: 5 m
with Waterwings: 1.5cm ± 3cm

Apart from other elements Snake can be found in seven different forms. These are; Solid Snake, Liquid Snake, Severus Snake, Solidus Snake, Naked Snake, Snakes on a Plane, ************* Snake, Gas Snake, and Plasma Snake.

In nature Snake is rarely found in its pure form. Snake ore (SnO), and Snakes on a Plane (aka soap) are however very common.

Answer 3

Thanks for the natural history lesson.

However, the Bible is not "inspired" by any mythical deity, it is a hodge podge of contradictory origin myths written by a diverse group of iron age nomads, over several 100 years.

Science has never "proved God's reality"....in fact, it is the opposite. Also, the supposed "science" of the Bible has the serpent walking on legs and eating dirt.

What is really interesting is that there is absolutely no indication that the "serpent" mentioned in the creation myth of Genesis has anything to do with Lucifer or Satan. (FYI, it says "serpent", not "snake") That was a later re-interpretation as the character of Satan wasn't invented until a couple 100 years after the Genesis story was around.

Answer 4

you know nothing about snakes.
they are not cold they hunt the way the evolved to hunt.
of course they have to be calculating, there survival depends on it.
actually snakes (like most vertabrates) have emotions, why do you think they strike when cornered. their frightened.
never has there been a recorded case of a snake eating its owner. seriously your ignorrence just floors me.

and huh snakes do have taste glands in both their tongues and in their mouths as well.

i mean comeon do you get all of your info from an outdated book of fairytales.

Answer 5

Snakes are God's creature and deserve our respect. How do you know they have no feelings? They do. And as for eating their owners, I have never heard of anyone who owned a snake being eaten by their pet. I believe we are much too big. Snakes are sweet creatures who have been slammed by the bible. Shame on you for disrespecting one of God's beautiful creatures.

Answer 6

And how exactly has science ever "proven" the existence of god? I mean, you say "for a few hundred years science seemed to prove God's reality to people..."

How, specifically, has science ever *proven* god's existence?

For the record, and before you make a complete doof out of yourself (as if your question hadn't done it already), science isn't out to prove or disprove god--science only seeks answers to questions through trial and error, through experimentation that can be verified and replicated...

God is a moot point in scientific realms....

Answer 7

What I find amazing is that it could speak, and even more amazing is that it talked a woman into eating a piece of knowledgeable fruit.

Answer 8

Also snakes do have emotions, they fear humans and other animals. To say they are the devil is to spit on the name of the spirits of nature.

Answer 9

No where does it say snake.

By the way, did the 'snake' WALK up to Eve?

Answer 10
