Enjoying my venture into the "Debates"!
Venomous reptiles are just reptiles with a specific method of attack/defense that is very dangerous/fatal.
I believe that it is OK for people to keep them just the same as any other reptiles, as long as the keepers are mature and responsible, and certain things are understood and in place to accommodate this potentially fatal situation.
I personally would really hesitate to keep one, unless of course it was one in dire need of being rescued - then I have to admit I probably would take it, at least until I found it a good home, a good release somewhere appropriate, or I fell in love.
