Handling vipers only means how we handle the so called poison ones who are sinners, if we are one with God, nothing can harm us, if the body is killed then it doesn't matter, because the body isn't our true self.

It can be very hard to tell what is meant literally, and what is meant metaphorically. You would think some things just shouldn't be taken literally, lest you die an early painful death. Unfortunately these kinds of people really don't care about this life. they're told not to care about this life, so why should they care if they die early?
