Here's where it get slightly complicated - some snakes use venom from front or rear fangs as part of prey capture and defense. This venom is not always produced or administered  by the snake in ways dangerous to human health, so many species are venomous in that they produce and use venom, but considered harmless to humans in most cases because the venom is of low potency, and/or otherwise administered through grooved rear teeth or simply oozed from ducts at the rear of the mouth. Species like Ringneck Snakes *Diadophis* are a good example of mildly venomous rear fanged dipsadine snakes that are traditionally considered harmless or not medically significant. Many rear-fanged snake species are harmless as long as they do not have a chance to secrete a medically significant amount of venom into a bite; [severe envenomation can occur](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23800999) if some species are [allowed to chew on a human](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S004101011831016X) for as little as 30-60 seconds. It is best not to fear snakes, but use common sense and do not let any animals chew on exposed parts of your body. Similarly, but without specialized rear fangs, gartersnakes *Thamnophis* ooze low pressure venom from the rear of their mouth that helps in prey handling, and are also [considered harmless](https://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/06/05/theres-no-need-to-fear-that-garter-snake/).

It is best not to fear snakes, but use common sense and do not let any animals chew on exposed parts of your body. Similarly, but without specialized rear fangs, gartersnakes *Thamnophis* ooze low pressure venom from the rear of their mouth that helps in prey handling, and are also [considered harmless](https://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/06/05/theres-no-need-to-fear-that-garter-snake/).

There is no dual \u201cHumanity.\u201d There is only one \u201cHumanity.\u201d Christians define \u201cHuman\u201d as Adam, Eve, and their descendants rather than as a species. So, the pre-Adamite Homo Sapiens were a species, not \u201cHuman.\u201d Only \u201cHumans\u201d have \u201cHuman\u201d souls. Since Adam was created with the first \u201cHuman\u201d soul in Genesis 2:7, the pre-Adamites of Genesis 1:27-28 would pre-date the concept of the \u201cHuman\u201d soul. Thus, that leaves the pre-Abrahamic faiths (i.e. Hinduism) and their concepts for describing for pre-Adamites.\n\n2. No, God created more than one type of sentient and intelligent form.\u00a0God created three sentient forms that included the Angels (immortal beings created without the need for a rational soul) for \u201cThe Heavens\u201d in Genesis 1:1, the pre-Adamites (created through God\u2019s evolutionary process) for the life cycle and stewardship of the Earth in Genesis 1:27, and Adam & Eve (Beings created in the immediate with Human souls) for both a mortal Earthly and afterlife Heavenly existence per Genesis 2:7 & 22. The Angels and the pre-Adamites were never included in the salvation of Jesus Christ because they do not descend from Adam. The salvation of Jesus Christ is only associated with The Adamites (\u201cHumans\u201d).\u00a0\n\nAgain, the pre-Adamites were not \u201dHuman.\u201d So, they do not fall in the same category as the descendants of Adam anymore than Angels do.\n\n3. The manner in which species are currently categorized is very recent and modern. This is no specific ancient Hebrew word for cynobacteria. As cynobacteria obtains\u00a0its\u00a0food through light, it would have been classified as a \u201cplant\u201d in the time and language used. The order in which species were created in Genesis follows the scientific timeline from simplest to most complex. Darwinists (that were originally Christian) knew this and simply removed God to sell the already existing concept as a \u201cnew\u201d theory. If The Bible included all of details regarding the process of creation through evolution, then the scripture would be so vast that one would not be able to carry it around with oneself. Besides, God gave us science to determine \u201chow\u201d God created species.\n\n4. Again, you are trying to place the pre-Adamites and their non-Adamite descendants in the same category as the Adamites (\u201cHumans\u201d). There is only one \u201cHuman\u201d story, and it begins with the creation of Adam in Genesis 2:7. The pre-Adamites are simply part of the prologue for the story of the Adamites.\n\nThe events (i.e. The Black Sea deluge) mentioned in works such as The Epic of Gilgamesh and The Torah pre-date written language, and were passed from generation to generation through oral tradition before each culture invented writing and wrote them down. So, the Sumerians in Mesopotamia may have \u201cpublished\u201d their corrupt version first, but it doesn\u2019t mean that their version pre-dates the version later written down in Hebrew and placed correctly together (using the J, E, P, etc. sources)\u00a0through God\u2019s providence.\n\nAgain, I am not seeing a literary inconsistency. The Torah literally states that \u201cPeople\u201d were created in Genesis 1:27, and that they were instructed to be fruitful and multiply in Genesis 1:28. Since Adam was not created until Genesis 2:7, the \u201cPeople\u201d automatically provide the most logical origin story for Cain\u2019s wife.\n\nPerhaps you are not aware that some form or another of the pre-Adamite hypothesis has existed for hundreds (if not thousands) of years. For example: Prae-Adamitae was published in Latin by La Peyrere in 1655. That was long before On the Origin of Species was published in English by Darwin in 1859. You may want to do more research on the matter before stating that the concept of \u201cPeople\u201d before Adam didn\u2019t exist until the 19th century.","body_html":"<div class=\"md\"><ol>\n<li><p>There is no dual \u201cHumanity.\u201d There is only one \u201cHumanity.\u201d Christians define \u201cHuman\u201d as Adam, Eve, and their descendants rather than as a species.

Bites from these snakes benefit from being washed and kept clean like any other skin damage, but aren't often cause for anything other than basic first aid treatment. Here's where it get slightly complicated - some snakes use venom from front or rear fangs as part of prey capture and defense. This venom is not always produced or administered  by the snake in ways dangerous to human health, so many species are venomous in that they produce and use venom, but considered harmless to humans in most cases because the venom is of low potency, and/or otherwise administered through grooved rear teeth or simply oozed from ducts at the rear of the mouth. Species like Ringneck Snakes *Diadophis* are a good example of mildly venomous rear fanged dipsadine snakes that are traditionally considered harmless or not medically significant. Many rear-fanged snake species are harmless as long as they do not have a chance to secrete a medically significant amount of venom into a bite; [severe envenomation can occur](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23800999) if some species are [allowed to chew on a human](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S004101011831016X) for as little as 30-60 seconds. It is best not to fear snakes, but use common sense and do not let any animals chew on exposed parts of your body. Similarly, but without specialized rear fangs, gartersnakes *Thamnophis* ooze low pressure venom from the rear of their mouth that helps in prey handling, and are also [considered harmless](https://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/06/05/theres-no-need-to-fear-that-garter-snake/). [Check out this book on the subject](https://shop.elsevier.com/books/venomous-bites-from-non-venomous-snakes/weinstein/978-0-12-822786-2). Even large species like Reticulated Pythons *Malayopython reticulatus* [rarely obtain a size large enough to endanger humans](https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/108/52/E1470.full.pdf) so are usually categorized as harmless.\n\n***\n\n*I am a bot created for /r/whatsthissnake, /r/snakes and /r/herpetology to help with snake identification and natural history education.

Similarly, but without specialized rear fangs, gartersnakes <em>Thamnophis</em> ooze low pressure venom from the rear of their mouth that helps in prey handling, and are also <a href=\"https://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/06/05/theres-no-need-to-fear-that-garter-snake/\">considered harmless</a>. <a href=\"https://shop.elsevier.com/books/venomous-bites-from-non-venomous-snakes/weinstein/978-0-12-822786-2\">Check out this book on the subject</a>. Even large species like Reticulated Pythons <em>Malayopython reticulatus</em> <a href=\"https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/108/52/E1470.full.pdf\">rarely obtain a size large enough to endanger humans</a> so are usually categorized as harmless.</p>\n\n<hr/>\n\n<p><em>I am a bot created for <a href=\"/r/whatsthissnake\">/r/whatsthissnake</a>, <a href=\"/r/snakes\">/r/snakes</a> and <a href=\"/r/herpetology\">/r/herpetology</a> to help with snake identification and natural history education.

Does that same study apply to Africa where 15 year olds are working 8 hour shifts and even fighting skirmishes? Would it be okay if those men, wouldn't call them kids, want to get married?</p>\n\n<p>If two individuals willingly want to get married, who is anyone to tell them what they can and can't do if their family and civilization has no issues? And I'm not referring to extreme cases of manipulation and coercion where a young girl is given away for wealth. Those instances are almost never in line with Islamic teachings to begin with. </p>\n\n<p>This all becomes very ironic and somewhat funny when the same girls that people are calling justice for turn around and say that they're happy and content. You can literally go to different countries and talk to dozens of women who got married early on. Why not listen to their side, straight from the horses mouth?</p>\n</div>","can_gild":false,"can_mod_post":false,"collapsed":false,"collapsed_because_crowd_control":null,"collapsed_reason":null,"collapsed_reason_code":null,"comment_type":null,"controversiality":0,"created":1747665826.0,"created_utc":1747665826.0,"distinguished":null,"downs":0,"edited":false,"gilded":0,"gildings":{},"id":"mt4nzbw","is_submitter":false,"likes":null,"link_id":"t3_1kpsa18","locked":false,"mod_note":null,"mod_reason_by":null,"mod_reason_title":null,"mod_reports":[],"name":"t1_mt4nzbw","no_follow":true,"num_reports":null,"parent_id":"t1_mt3p51o","permalink":"/r/PAK/comments/1kpsa18/this_is_precisely_why_we_made_rkarachiwallay/mt4nzbw/","removal_reason":null,"replies":"","report_reasons":null,"saved":false,"score":1,"score_hidden":true,"send_replies":true,"stickied":false,"subreddit":"PAK","subreddit_id":"t5_2qzp4","subreddit_name_prefixed":"r/PAK","subreddit_type":"public","top_awarded_type":null,"total_awards_received":0,"treatment_tags":[],"unrepliable_reason":null,"ups":1,"user_reports":[]},{"all_awardings":[],"approved_at_utc":null,"approved_by":null,"archived":false,"associated_award":null,"author":"Some_Arm_1531","author_flair_background_color":null,"author_flair_css_class":null,"author_flair_richtext":[],"author_flair_template_id":null,"author_flair_text":null,"author_flair_text_color":null,"author_flair_type":"text","author_fullname":"t2_gkzfgpfs1","author_is_blocked":false,"author_patreon_flair":false,"author_premium":false,"awarders":[],"banned_at_utc":null,"banned_by":null,"body":"All you need to do to counter it Is literally touch the sword or have enough power to remanipulate your. 5 senses it\u2019s not rocket science lol","body_html":"<div class=\"md\"><p>All you need to do to counter it Is literally touch the sword or have enough power to remanipulate your. 5 senses it\u2019s not rocket science lol</p>\n</div>","can_gild":false,"can_mod_post":false,"collapsed":false,"collapsed_because_crowd_control":null,"collapsed_reason":null,"collapsed_reason_code":null,"comment_type":null,"controversiality":0,"created":1747665746.0,"created_utc":1747665746.0,"distinguished":null,"downs":0,"edited":false,"gilded":0,"gildings":{},"id":"mt4npv0","is_submitter":false,"likes":null,"link_id":"t3_1kqbexw","locked":false,"mod_note":null,"mod_reason_by":null,"mod_reason_title":null,"mod_reports":[],"name":"t1_mt4npv0","no_follow":true,"num_reports":null,"parent_id":"t1_mt4nbr1","permalink":"/r/BleachPowerScaling/comments/1kqbexw/adult_naruto_and_sasuke_at_their_strongest_vs/mt4npv0/","removal_reason":null,"replies":"","report_reasons":null,"saved":false,"score":1,"score_hidden":false,"send_replies":true,"stickied":false,"subreddit":"BleachPowerScaling","subreddit_id":"t5_7c1qev","subreddit_name_prefixed":"r/BleachPowerScaling","subreddit_type":"public","top_awarded_type":null,"total_awards_received":0,"treatment_tags":[],"unrepliable_reason":null,"ups":1,"user_reports":[]},{"all_awardings":[],"approved_at_utc":null,"approved_by":null,"archived":false,"associated_award":null,"author":"QueasyRequirement742","author_flair_background_color":"","author_flair_css_class":"asker","author_flair_richtext":[],"author_flair_template_id":null,"author_flair_text":null,"author_flair_text_color":"dark","author_flair_type":"text","author_fullname":"t2_syqrcm75","author_is_blocked":false,"author_patreon_flair":false,"author_premium":false,"awarders":[],"banned_at_utc":null,"banned_by":null,"body":"Hey guys, I'm currently in my 5th year taking environmental science (SUPER SENIOR.
