I guess the athiest-left gave Gore a pass on this:
In 1999, Al Gore, fighting the presidential election, told a newspaper reporter that there was one question that guided him. You guessed it - "What Would Jesus Do?"

Time for the Party Pooper!Would he want me to use public transportation?"
I was glad that an idiot like the "Rev" Jim Ball asked this question because it shows the fallacy of the whole WWJD program.
"It was huge with the under 25s, the kind of people who would go to ordinary rock festivals as well as Christian rock festivals."
Anyone under 25 without proper teaching are not fully capable of knowing what Christ did let alone what He would do. Hence you have these WWJD braclet wearers blaspheming Jesus by not only convincing themselves, but teaching others that Jesus would go to a rock concert. What happens is that they strap on WWJD jewlery and then go about with legalism du jour, morality based on what they want, and all along they tell everyone that Jesus would engage in sin.
The Boardgame. ("Challenge yourself as you put yourself in Jesus's shoes and explore 600 thought-provoking questions.")
Situation Ethics redressed.
But then again, the American Religion has very little to do with traditional Christianity. The only thing in common is that believers have with your garden variety WWJD devotee is a character named "Jesus" in the religion.

I think more important to me would have been a
WWMD
What would Mary do?
Mary, Mother of Jesus. I know there is no way I can measure up to God/Jesus. But once that phrase came out, I often thought, what would Mary have done in this situation?
I think I would have been a MUCH BETTER mother if I had looked at motherhood that way. I think I would have been more patient, yet more strict with my three kids, if I had looked at it like WHAT WOULD MARY DO? as mother of God/Jesus....

I wonder how many of those wearing the wristbands have any idea of where the phrase comes from and the story behind it?
