WWJDMost people assume WWJD is for "What would Jesus do?" But

the initialsalso stand for "What would Jesus drive?" One theory is

that Jesus wouldtool around in an old Plymouth because "the Bible

says God drove Adamand Eve out of the Garden of Eden in a Fury." But

in Psalm 83, theAlmighty clearly owns a Pontiac and a Geo. The

passage urges theLord to "pursue your enemies with your Tempest and

terrify themwith your Storm." Perhaps God favors Dodge pickup

trucks,becauseMoses' followers are warned not to go up a mountain

"until theRam's horn sounds a long blast." Some scholars insist that

Jesusdrove a Honda but didn't like to talk about it. As proof, they

cite averse in St. John's gospel where Christ tells the crowd, "For I

did notspeak of my own Accord..."

Meanwhile, Moses rode an old British motorcycle, as evidenced by a

Biblepassage 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 theMaster's lead, the Apostles car-pooled in a Honda

......"The Apostles werein one Accord."
