It’s interesting how the Biblical account of the supernaturally intelligent Serpent’s interactions with early humans differs from other ancient accounts. Serpents have been credited with wisdom, youthfulness, health, and even immortality. The way they shed their skin periodically has something to do with this. And their coldblooded, calm nature gives these animals the appearance of wisdom. Unlike sheep, pigeons, or rabbits.
Just tried to subscribe. Don't know if the subscription went thru or not. Will know after I check my email. This is Mary Allen who followed your link from Leo Hoffman's web site. Nice site by the way. It's pretty much a full-time job keeping one up. Don't have one currently but had one once. Will come back here and do more reading and commenting. Thanks for the invite.
Very insightful now that we are in Lent. Not everything good comes from God and when we follow it, we can be pulled down.
