At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Is snake worship in the bible, or is this just one of things they made up as they went along?

It's all to do with signs of True Believers™ from (I believe) Mark 16, "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover."
We can see how well that works out...

So why don't they drink poison
While I wouldn't necessarily condone such things, in the sense of "don't try this at home", it is the sort of thing that would qualify as a testable claim.
