Isn’t all this snake stuff based on one single verse?

One of my roommates at Harvard used to go with his father to tent revivals when he was a boy. He said that they sometimes did snakes.

As weird as the snake-handling thing is, TN's own Constitution would seem to prevent this:
Art I, Section 3.
That all men have a natural and indefeasible right to worship Almighty God according to the dictates of their own conscience; that no man can of right be compelled to attend, erect, or support any place of worship, or to maintain any minister against his consent; that no human authority can, in any case whatever, control or interfere with the rights of conscience; and that no preference shall ever be given, by law, to any religious establishment or mode of worship.
