I love the idea of a snake being the hero of Christmas. Yes, there is a sort of in-your-face Bible quality to it, but that isn’t the charm for me. Snakes are so feared and hated in most of society that I love the concept of them being the most integral part to the most beloved holiday. There’s a certain poetic beauty to it.
Lizards, on the other hand, are best relegated to very brief mentions in “Holiday” specials.
