Stuff like that is a bit tricky. I'm not sure myself how they (the designers) consider stuff like Queen Ant poison that causes insanity. Best bet in any fight where you aren't certain is to get up a soul shield and an element shield pronto.

Note that these spells do stack with each other (probably because soul and element are short term, in-combat only), and also with items that provide individual protections, like the Cloak of Many Colors, various amulets, etc.

The only thing to watch out for is that too much protection can be a bad thing. I believe the magic numbr is 255. If a resistance goes higher than that, the numbers wrap around and can become negative. Nasty, very.
