I'd say the Snakehandlers would get my vote. Their entire religion is based on one entirely metaphorical verse from the Bible. They basically hold and toy with poisonous snakes, because the Bible says they will not be harmed if they are righteous. Thus, they believe that the more snakes you hold, the more righteous you are. So, the people holding like 20 snakes in their hands are the most revered. They get bitten all the time, but refuse to seek medical attention, because they "know" they'll be okay. I'd like to see them hold a bunch of king cobras... unscathed my ass. |
