Snake handling

They busted some KY pastor for having about 100 rattlesnakes in his home, which were typically used in Sunday worshipservices, on some kind of wildlife charges (possessing illegal reptiles??).

Isn't it funny how absurd the logic is: true believers handle snakes. If you are a true believer and take up snakes, they won't hurt you. When people who've done this for a while die or get hurt, this doesn't disprove our contention. Instead, this proves those people weren't true believers!

Lovely!

It reminds me of the claim that Christians won't sin, or believers can't fall away, or etc.: unfalsifiable circular logic.
