If she were a true beliver, she would have survived the bite. I guess
Yahweh will be sending her to Hell for a gazillion years or so to think
things over.

I thought true believers were supposed to be immune to viper venom.  She
must not have been pure enough.

If theists truly believe that this person went to Heaven, then why is
it a tragedy?  Rather than mourn, they should celebrate the death of
all believers.

*snap*

There goes another irony meter.

It's refreshing to see so much doublethink packed into a single statement.

Sadly, most readers won't notice the obvious contradiction, and will instead
nod piously...

Au contraire Pierre! It is not punishment to go to heaven, but a reward,
so god is rewarding all those people he calls up early.

Using the same book of Judeochristian teachings, it is also
possible to declare that God drove a Plymouth, viz. Genesis "God drove
them out in His Fury".  

Apparently there was strong preference for Chrysler products in Biblical
times; much later (Revelations 1:9-10) Paul talks about being stuck in a
traffic jam on the sabbath while driving an early-'90s Dodge sedan:

"I, John...was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a
loud voice like a trumpet..."
