Quote:

Dan Smith, associate minister of Hancock United Church of Christ in Lexington, Mass., created a joking but provocative sign reading, "What would Jesus drive?"

"I hope it will at least encourage folks to think twice, and possibly pray about this decision, as they would about many other hard choices they make," Rev. Smith says.

Too easy!

An old Dodge Colt!

Please, Jesus wouldn't be driving an old beat up car. He'd be driving a big ass white big rig trimmed in gold with a sleeper in the back for the more favored apostles, and the trailer would open up wide so he could give sermons across the country in it (The Sermon on the Semi?).
The rig would also have giant reinforced bumpers in front to sweep aside all non believers and believers in other faiths.
There would also be several other rigs that would follow him across the nation but they would be less spectacular than the Big Guy's ride. On the sides of these lesser rigs, there would be giant airbrushed portraits of Jebus and murals of his miraculous biblical doin's.
In addition to the Convoy For Glory, there would be accompanying SUV's and limos for side excursions to tv appearances.

That, or he'd just tool around on a moped in in Haight Ashbury looking for some couch weed.

I think there's something in the Gospels that says when Jesus and his disciples were going about the Holy Land, they were in "one Accord."

LOL!!!

Somehow I always pictured Jebus in a pimped out lowrider with chrome wheels, chrome trim, and really big speakers. Ah yes, with hydraulics. Afterall, Jebus was somewhat of an outcast in society, and he hung around the sinners. There ya go!

Ah the old Honda joke revives...Let me provide the scripture.

Quote:

Acts 2
1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

Of course that only refers to the disciples....

This is hilarious! I actually was thinking of posting in the humor section a poll asking what people thought Jesus would drive (WWJD = What Would Jesus Drive?). Someone beat me to it. Anyway, I always pictured Jebus driving a beat-up, faded green early '70's model Chevy Nova with some rust spots and torn upholstry. And of course, a big ashtray full of butts. And a plastic Jebus on the dash. Of course, Jesus wouldn't care about it breaking down on him as he can fix any problem using his magic mind rays.

I think it would either be a Dodge Demon (70's car) or what the heck ever that car was that could also serve as a boat. Jesus could go as good on water as on land.

CNN just did a bit on this. They had one of the nuts from the group on with... you got it... Jerry Falwell. Even Falwell thinks they're nuts - but then he and his wife drive Suburbans! LOL!

The link seems to be down at the moment, but here's the nut site:

And this guy nabbed the .com domain to make fun of them...

What would Jesus drive? I'll tell you

[musical number/]

I'm a Ford truck man
That's all I'll drive
Ain't got no boundaries
Won't compromise

Ain't no doubt I'm King of the Mountain
King Ford Truck
[/musical number]

You've seen the commerical right?
