from the Associated press:
The pastor of a Kentucky church that handles snakes in religious rites was among 10 people arrested by wildlife officers in a crackdown on the venomous snake trade.
More than 100 snakes, many of them deadly, were confiscated in the undercover sting after Thursday's arrests, said Col. Bob Milligan, director of law enforcement for Kentucky Fish and Wildlife.
Most were taken from the Middlesboro home of Gregory James Coots, including 42 copperheads, 11 timber rattlesnakes, three cottonmouth water moccasins, a western diamondback rattlesnake, two cobras and a puff adder. See http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25651899/>1=43001

No....as far as I know... Cokesbury doesn't carry any snakes in its religious supply catalogue...and if it did ..would snake handling supplies be in Worship, Christian Education, or Church Management Resources?
How about if you post comments about which category you would put it in, and why!

In an effort to shop locally, we purchased some garter snakes from a local biological supply company. They weren't really threatening, even when we attached some rattles to their tails. In short, our experimental snake handling service didn't really take off.
