Well, AGBM, it's funny that you should mention that!
That very thing happened to my JW neighbor!
I saw a well dressed man walking down the sidewalk. Just before he got to Sister Putout's he turned to walk down her driveway beside the house instead of going directly to her front door.
He had a briefcase and looked very official. I saw him between the bushes and her window. I knew Sister Putout had a gentleman caller because I had seen him arrive about 10 minutes before this guy showed up.
All of a sudden I heard him holler.
Sister Putout came running out her house.
"Why Bro. Bone Pointer, what are you doing here?"
Before he could explain or give her any lame excuse....she saw the snake and screamed, too.
Her gentleman caller looked out the window and asked what was happening.
Well, I don't know what was more frightening to Bro. Bone Pointer....the rattlesnake that bit him or to see the PO at Sister Putout's window.
You know, of course, that I came running out to see what was the matter, too.
About that time Bro. Bonepointer's getaway car with his elder companion came slowly riding down the street and he stopped in front of the house.
He pulled the car into my driveway (I guess he was nervous). They were all discussing who was going to suck the poison out of Bro. BonePointer's leg because they were not very trustful of havng a doctor do it. Sister Putout said she was simply not in a sucking mood, but she had heard that herbs work for snakebite and she ran in to get some garlic salt and basil.
The PO said he thought ice might work. I called the ambulance cos I didn't think any of them were using good sense.The snake had run off by the time the ambulance came, but we had all seen it was a rattler.
They said they had to radio ahead and see who had the anti-venom. The PO inquired about the use of anti-venom and was told that blood indeed was used in the making of the serum.
He advised Bro Bone Pointer that he could be disfellowshipped if he accepted the anti-venom, but it would depend on excatly how much blood and what kind of fractions were in it. He couldn't commit to having the JC go lightly on the matter.
Bone Pointer's co-hort quickly left the scene. He didn't want to get involved. He knew the PO was already going to have it in for him for spying on Sister Putout. Noone had expected the PO to be there, dropping off some paperwork he needed typed.
The PO excused himself saying that he had a meeting to conduct. Sister Putout went back in the house. Everyone was gone but the ambulance people. My other neighbor who is a priest, came over and performed last rites. I heard Bro. Bone pointer died because he refused the anti-venom because of its blood content.
Sister Putout said they are not sure if he will qualify for the resurrection because he was misbehaving when it happened. And also because they heard that a priest prayed over him, too. So that would probably cancel out anything good he had done during his 40 years on the earth.
Anyway, that's all I know.

He wouldn't shout because of Mark 16:18. It's cool. He can continue his spying unharmed.

Hopefully, the hounders will get bit by fierce snakes while waiting to recapture me. And I won't lift a finger--that is the deadliest snake in the world.

Are there no real issues instead of making up things? I was just posted by a Christian that was trying to prove the bible is correct by this post;
Since you started this with a passive agressive manor, I figure you should at least be able to grasp that if you push a button you get a responce just as you planned. When debating such one can never make head way. Thus you got Mr. SE to get angry with you. So you see you got the responces you asked for, yet I still say "GOD Still loves you."
Now a tid bit that may aid you at some point in time, as you claim to be in the rational thinking man of logic then you can grasp that NASA has to use such a standard in what they do to figure out complex calculation. So without any futher adieu;
Mr. Harold Hill who owns a Areo Space company, Curtis Engiene Co, had a project to work with NASA to send up a Satellite's that will be in orbit for the next 100 years, thus as he and his crew of Scientest found they could not get a proper calcuation on the timing for the next 100 years, as in they found a full day missing, as in 24 hours.
This puzzeled them for months and they could not figure it out no matter what they tried. As the orbits that the satellite travels they needed to be 100% sure that the sun would not create dead zones etc. I am not a scientist so I am not totaly sure of all the reasons, but one of the scientist working on this project noted the following, from the book of Joshua 10,12,13, when GOD made the sun stand still for a day, thus a calculation was done and strangley enough they found 23, hours and 20 minutes of missing time.
Though still missing 40 minutes the scientist all agreed that perhaps the bible may be based on truth, yet why the missing 40 minutes, so the same fellow that brought up the passage from Joshua, thought about it and said there is yet one other passage, from Kings 20,9.11 when GOD made the sun go backwards by 10* after the scientist did the culcuation the mising 40 minutes was found.
Strange how a book you noted as being the same value as a comic book solved a complex problem. How what you state as Child Like belief was able to fix a problem that "LOGIC" could not.
Again, "GOD LOVES YOU."
{ Man has never fought any war for GOD, = Man fights wars for one man who wins, and for one man who looses.} Thats fact.
The bottom line, I once was like yourself and felt the way you do, that I could use logic for everything, I applaud you for your standing and trying to hold your ground. When you hit your fifties you may not change, even when you hit your seventies you may not change, but just as many I have known in the past, when they were at the end the one thing they all have done is ask that "GOD FORGIVE them!"
