Ye Shall Take Up Serpents

Produced by:

David Isay

Producer David Isay travels to rural Appalachia where an intriguing sect of Christian fundamentalists use deadly rattlers and other poisonous snakes as part of their religious practices. Their absolutely literal interpretation of a single Bible verse calls for the handling of snakes and the consumption of strychtninne as a test of their faith. But what happens to that faith when loved ones die from snake bites or poison?
