Most people assume WWJD is for "What would Jesus do?". But the initials really have been changed to stand for "What would Jesus drive?"

One theory is that Jesus would tool around in an old Plymouth because the Bible says, "God drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden in a Fury."

But in Psalm 83, the Almighty clearly owns a Pontiac and a Geo. The passage urges the Jesus to "pursue your enemies with your Tempest and terrify them with your Storm."

Perhaps God favors Dodge pickup trucks, because Moses' followers are warned not to go up a mountain "until the Ram's horn sounds a long blast."

Some scholars insist that Jesus drove a Honda but didn't like to talk about it. As proof, they cite a verse in St. John's gospel where Christ tells the crowd, "For I did not speak of my own Accord..."

Meanwhile, Moses rode an old British motorcycle, as evidenced by a Bible passage declaring that "the roar of Moses' Triumph is heard in the hills."

Joshua drove a Triumph sports car with a hole in its muffler: "Joshua's Triumph was heard throughout the land." And, following Jesus' lead, the Apostles car pooled in a Honda..." The Apostles were in one Accord."

Nothing is as effective as homeopathy.

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.

Those are great. Unfortunately, there's also a segment of folks out there who ask that question seriously, as a means to convince you that unless you ride a bicycle to work, you're not being an adequate steward of the earth and you're going to hell.

That is why Jesus would drive a Hummer although the specific passage in scripture escapes me.

There is a line we cross when we go from "I will believe it when I see it" to "I will see it when I believe it".

No, I think it was Saul of Tarses that liked a Hummer. That is, until his conversion.

Jesus wouldn't drive, he would fly. He was already well acquainted with an experienced Pilate.
What do you mean "we", have you got a mouse in your pocket?

More appropriate to hand sanitation than flying I should think.
