Devotees of Fla. man drank snail mucus in ritual

(AP) – 1 day ago

MIAMI — Devotees of a Miami man who claims to practice a traditional African religion say they were sickened when they drank the mucus of a giant African snail.

Federal authorities in January raided Charles L. Stewart's home after receiving complaints. Stewart has not been criminally charged, but prosecutors and state and federal wildlife agencies are investigating. The giant African snail is prohibited in the U.S. without special approval.

Experts say it devastates new ecosystems. The snail grows up to 10 inches long, can reproduce on its own and even can even eat plaster.

Stewart tells The Miami Herald he means no harm, and his religion uses the snails in healing ceremonies.

Followers said they got violently ill, losing weight and developing strange lumps in their stomachs.

WTF man!
They drank the shit that comes out of a massive asexual snail and have some kind of ulcer or something?
That's my kind of religion.

the best thing about Florida is the Kennedy Space Center, NASA FTW.  it's a damn shame that there are only a few more planned launches and that we're going to have to hitch a ride into space with the Russians in the near future.  nothing against Russia, or Russians, it's just some things should be done by our own means.
the second best thing about Florida is the people that seem surprised when a hurricane hits there, LOL.

Giant African Land Snail



--------------------
It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus.
All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter, while the
octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV.
But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns.
Also he got a race car.
Is any of this getting through to you?
