3.1.09

Jesus would or wouldn't have driven a Lexus?

I'm so confused by this bumper sticker I saw today. 
I still didn't get it... so I looked up Psalm 18:30 [NIV]

As for God, his way is perfect;
the word of the Lord is flawless.
He is a shield for all who take refuge in him.

At first I thought is this bumper sticker suggesting Jesus would have driven a Lexus? But the symbol is obviously reversed... perhaps denoting Jesus would have driven a more humble vehicle? Like a Pinto or AMC Pacer? Aside from the borrowing of Lexus Adspeak maybe Jesus does think the Lexus is a perfect car because of the higher safety rating..? But isn't a Lexy really reserved for spoiled people? Oh I'm so confused! Let there be light!

And then it hit me... no not the car... but the idea... just what kind of car would Jesus drive in 2009?

I mean if you had to choose one and name three reasons why... what would they be?
(excluding the -- he would have just walked answer, or you only saw one set of tire tracks in the sand. My neighbor already tried those)

If you HAD to pick a car... is the question.


And three reasons why?


What is Jesus driving?

He would have used his feet, he would not have used technology so damaging to the world.

First of all, I believe Jesus would walk, bike and use public transportation whenever possible.

But if I have to pick a car, I believe Jesus would borrow a friend's Prius or Civic because 1. He would want to use his resources to help out his neighbor, 2. He was not ostentatious, and 3. He would want to have as little to do with defiling creation as possible, since his Father made it and all.
