ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — A little baby was thrown 15 feet out of a crashed car and survived. The 16-month-old was in the hospital on Wednesday, recovering from the hit and run crash.  

A driver ran into the infant’s mother’s car in St. Petersburg, sending the baby flying out of the rear window. Moments later, a neighbor spotted the baby boy underneath a house.  

“I was going to actually cut a hole in my floor with a saw to pull him straight out, because I was very concerned for the child,” said homeowner Joshua Pegues.  

The boy was given CPR and taken to the hospital. He is expected to be okay.

LONDON, Ky. – A woman who was bitten by a snake at a church that neighbors say practices serpent handling died of her wounds hours later, a newspaper reported.

Linda Long, 48, was bitten Sunday at East London Holiness Church, where neighbors said the reptiles are handled as part of religious services, The Lexington Herald-Leader reported Tuesday.

But here is the part I found interesting . . .

Handling reptiles as part of religious services is illegal in Kentucky. Snake handling is a misdemeanor and punishable by a $50 to $100 fine.

Why have snakes as part of a religious service?

Snake handling is based on a passage in the Bible that says a sign of a true believer is the power to “take up serpents” without being harmed.
