Clearly, nowhere is any Christian group told to make snake statues for healing.

You are no doubt familiar with this symbol:

It is relatively common, especially in the United States, to find the caduceus, with its two snakes and wings, used as a symbol of medicine. The modern use of the caduceus as a symbol of medicine became established in the United States in the late 19th and early 20th century.

Very interesting logo and yes, I am aware of it.

My statement remains true. Nowhere in Scripture is anyone taught to look to snake statues for healing. It was a one-time event in the Hebrew Scriptures that didn’t end well.

The caduceus is an evil pagan symbol.
