I mean yeah but have you ever been to those Christian Snake Cults before?



I went to visit once down here in Florida.



Some weird ass shit.



Like the people just dance like they are in a trance with snakes and stare at the ceiling and it is just the most insane fucking thing ever.

Well honestly they aren't a unified religion so most of them are different and I only went to one so it doesn't apply to the majority.



Basically a lot of usual preaching and then they bring out a snake to pray near and then they start dancing. Some people get picked to dance with the snake and they dance like they're high on Meth. One of the goers said they used to drink snake venom but then stopped cuz cops said they needed to stop or something to that effect.



This snake btw is NOT trained or anything. Like they just grab this large ass python looking fucker from nowhere and dance with them. So many people just get randomly bitten and shit. Though when I went there nobody got bitten thank God. But a lot of the church goers had numerous bite scars from the snake and it was somewhat frightening.



Billy Ray Cyrus did a documentary on Hillbilly culture and the doc touches heavily on the Snake Cults and it is fascinating.



EDIT: Forgot to mention some of the flock can kiss the snake if they want and most of them chose to do it.

Yes they are! I think he's an underappreciated band member. Especially Nepenthe 💖
