Fanatical fundy idiot snake-handler gets bitten, dies.
You know, if someone jumped off a skyscraper after yelling "God will save me," we consider them to be idiots. At best.
So why are these ditwits allowed to pull this?
Another Snake-Handling Christian Dies After Snakebite (and Refusing Medical Help)
July 29, 2015 by Hemant Mehta 77 Comments
In February of 2014, Pastor Jamie Coots of the snake-handling Full Gospel Tabernacle in Jesus Name church in Middlesboro, Kentucky (and one of the stars of the show Snake Salvation) died from a snakebite. Its possible he was merely injured from the snakebite and what tipped him over the edge was a million people saying I told you so.
And now its happened again with another Kentucky-based snake-handling church-goer:
A man died after being bitten by a snake he had been handling during a church service in Bell County on Sunday.
John David Brock, 60, of Stoney Fork, was bitten on the left arm while handling the snake at Mossy Simpson Pentecostal Church in Jenson, according to the state police.
Brock refused medical treatment and went to his brothers home, where he died.
