Religion means, to believe in the unproven, its not about Hubbs(the kingsnake god) or any god. Simply believing is what is not cannot be proved. I have a religious belief in Toyota trucks.

To that point, you two have a religious belief in a set pattern and are not considering, one, they are kings and kings across their range express polymorphism. Two, natural selection, three any value in genotype. and lastly habitat alone.
Because western getula express a million color and pattern variations, say every fifty miles. We all know a brea king from a long beach king and a San Diego king etc etc. Color and pattern changes quickly due to localized selection. The question is, what about the snake? The snake is everything else about the snake. Scalation, structure, the biology etc. In this case, these animals here are exactly the same. Across the entire range, there are small minor differences. Yet, easily identifiable as getula. So give me something solid guys, something other then color. End part 2
