This is yet another documented tentacle of the Green-whackos assault on America. Diana White Horse Capp touches on this in her book "Brother against Brother". The enviral whack jobs are trying to work their way into every facet of society, including trying to make it "Christian" to be a green socialist.

This POS "preacher" is nothing but a blasphemous, manipulative liar when he talks about what Jesus wants.

What Would Jesus Drive? -- Well, in the book of Acts, it does say that the disciples were gathered together in one Accord. So, that's an endorsement for Honda from the Almighty.

Jesus would probably drive a Tahoe or Expedition knowing that it would keep he & his flock safe in the event of an accident and also because he knows that the hole in the ozone is just a bunch of crap.

"When you need a new car, you should buy the most fuel- efficient one that truly meets your needs."

The last line is really just common sense, but it doesn't imply you will not buy a SUV. What does "meet your needs" imply:

SUV haters aren't just left wing wackos. There are plenty here who call themselves "conservatives" who hate SUVs and would love for the government to "ban" them.

There are people on both the left and right who love to wield the "government" stick "to work their way into every facet of society". Freedom and liberty be dammed.

"There really isn't a decision in your life that isn't a moral choice," said the Rev. Jim Ball, executive director of the group behind the "What Would Jesus Drive?"

Moral decisions:
What's my favorite color?
What will I have for lunch?
Should I reply to that silly FR post?
Was the pastor's sermon nonsense?
Do I wear the blue suit, or the brown?
Is Dan Rather really that obtuse?

In order to keep "un-Christian" discussions to a minimum, the following should be posted on the passenger side dashboard. Heck, this might even have made the Reformation unnecessary.

The rules listed below apply to the calling of Shotgun (the passenger seat) in an automobile. These rules are definitive and binding.

Section I - The Basic Rules

In order to call Shotgun, the caller must pronounce the word "Shotgun" in a clear voice. This call must be heard and acknowledged by the driver. The other occupants of the vehicle need not hear the call as long as the driver verifies the call.

Shotgun may only be called if all occupants of the vehicle are outside and on the way to said vehicle.

Early calls are strictly prohibited. Shotgun may only be called while walking toward the vehicle and only applies to the drive immediantly forthcoming. Shotgun can never be called while inside a vehicle or still technically on the way to the first location. For example, one can not get out of a vehicle and call Shotgun for the return journey.

The driver has final say in all ties and disputes. The driver has the right to suspend or remove all shotgun priviledges from one or more persons.

Section II Special Cases

These special exceptions to the rules above should be considered in the order presented; the case listed first will take precendence over any of the cases beneath it, when applicable.

In the instance that the normal driver of a vehicle is drunk or otherwise unable to perform their duties as driver, then he/she is automatically given Shotgun.

If the instance that the person who actually owns the vehicle is not driving, then he/she is automatically given Shotgun, unless they decline.

In the instance the the driver's spouse, lover, partner, or hired prostitute for the evening is going to accompany the group, he/she is automatically given Shotgun, unless they decline.

In the instance that one of the passengers may become so ill during the course of the journey that the other occupants feel he/she will toss their cookies, then the ill person should be given Shotgun to make appropriate use of the window.

In the instance that only one person knows how to get to a given location and this person is not the driver, then as the designated navigator for the group they automatically get Shotgun, unless they decline.

In the instance that one of the occupants is too wide or tall to fit comfortably in the back seat, then the driver may show mercy and award Shotgun to the genetic misfit. Alternatively, the driver and other passengers may continually taunt the poor fellow as they make a three hour trip with him crammed in the back.

Section III *The Survival of the Fitess Rules *

If the driver so wishes, he/she may institute the Survival of the Fitess Rules on the process of calling Shotgun. In this case all rules, excepting I-4, are suspended and the passenger seat is occupied by whoever can take it by force.

The driver must announce the institution of the Survival of the Fitess Rules with reasonable warning to all passengers. This clause reduces the amount of blood lost by passengers and the damage done to the vehicle.

Please follow the above rules to the best of your ability. If there are any arguments or execptions not covered in these rules, please refer to rule I-4.

The problem with asking "What would Jesus Do" is that we simply don't know. The culture that He lived in was so very different from our own. What would He do if living in our own time and culture? We can only speculate. And that's the problem: who is to say whether your speculation or my speculation is closer to the truth.

A much better question for Christians to ask is: "What would Jesus HAVE ME do?" That is a biblically valid question, and one to which we can turn to the Bible for some real answers.

What kind of car would Jesus have me drive? Well, certainly one that was affordable, becasue the bible does have some things to say about living prudently within one's means. Certainly also a car in good working order, as we certainly are not to recklessly endanger others. If you are transporting kids or others, you also have a responsibility for their safety, so maybe that's a plus on the SUV side. It could also be argued that we should drive to live and not live to drive, so our choice of car should be limited to utilitarian concerns and not an indulgence of our covetousness and vanity. Provided these criteria are met, I'd say that the kind of car that Jesus would have us drive is the car that gets the job done.

No, this guy doesn't look gay at all.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Jesus would have had 2 SUVs for those times when he and the apostles had to go out in the country to preach. Especially to those places where 4WD was necessary.

That, or a school bus.

...buy the .... one that truly meets your needs

If I could afford it, that would be a fully-loaded Lincoln Navigator. Meanwhile, I'll have to stay with my big, red, F-350, Diesel, crewcab, dually, long-bed pickup truck (242K and counting), especially with all the scriptural documentation pushing "Ford" products - BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Forgive my ignorance--I'm Jewish--but Jesus apparently did not need to drive any car, being divine and having the power of bilocation...right?

Just ignore these people. They are preaching from The Gospel according to Peter, Paul and Mary.

God gave us the brains to figure out how to take care of our energy needs, but when we try to remedy those needs the greens get in the way.
