>>What is good for the nation? Just ask some of those folks who worship snakes and you will find out! :)

>If we as a congregation buy all our snaking needs from the Snakes R Us Corporation, then that would mean good economic development. Better yet, if we form various buying blocks, we could negotiate for better pricing. So you better get in one of those buying blocks or the costs of things like SnakeKits and SnakeOil will become beyond your reach. How would you worship then? I suppose the entire congregation could decide to be one universal buying block. Oops, wait... that's creeping socialism and just wrong. We'd be no better than the heathens. Will you forgive me?

You are forgiven – this time! I have often wondered what the snakes think about all of this? Sometimes being a heathen looks good! Next thing you know they will be telling us we have to worship snakes and which ones! :)
