Bible Challenge - "CURSES AND CONDEMNATIONS"

Good Evening to All!

I know I said I wasn't going to post today, but decided since today is "Bible Challenge" day and it doesn't take a great deal of research, I would go ahead and post.

I realize the picture to the right is not of the usually caliber of the photos I try and post, but I have a phobia of snakes and I will be having nightmares tonight about them as it is. This portrays that originally snakes did walk upright before God cursed them. Believe it or not some of the pictures I saw did show some snakes with legs. I've gotten the chills just thinking about them.
