D'oh!
I was hoping it was going to be another case of celebrity autoeroticism/asphyxiation story. Oh, well.

Priest: "Lord, I was doing your work, I was reaching many people with the good news of your word. Why did you take me so early?"
The god: "I took you? I took you? YOU WERE JUGGLING SNAKES! WHAT DID YOU THINK WOULD HAPPEN?!?!"

I highly recommend the book "Salvation on Sand Mountain." by Dennis Covington.

Wouldn't that be alternately extremely holy/extremely damning to die while handling a holy talisman of your religion? Kind of like choking on the bread and wine for Catholics, or sitting in Peter's chair and having it collapse on you at Passover for Hebrews.
Or is the chair for Abraham? I am not totally hip to that one. I think Jerry Seinfeld did a skit on that tradition on SNL. Rather funny if I recall.
