"Most people assume W.W.J.D. stands for "What Would Jesus
Do?"
But the initials really 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 Lord to "pursue your enemies with your Tempest and terrify them
with your Storm."
Perhaps God favors Dodge pickups. 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 bike, as evidenced by a 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 the Master's lead, it is evident the Apostles carpooled in a Honda
...
"The Apostles were in one Accord."
