I'll try to post a new question or someone else will post a new question after the last one. Each of the questions will start with "What would Jesus do if...?"
Let's begin!
What would Jesus do if he was the president of the United States at this moment, and knew all about the war?
Here's one possible solution: He would try to make peace with the Iraqi's by merely speech and logic.
Isn't he already in the White House?
He would make ambiguous comments then go fishing.
That is very funny, Craven. However, I think he had given up fishing by the time the ambiguous comments became a major feature - or, at least, he had become a "fisher of men."
I'm told that Peter has gotten him to give up on carpentry and since recruiting has gone well he has taken up fishing. I'm pretty sure about all of this.
No - he recruited FISHERS - he didn't actually fish...
No no, I'm talking post-crucifixion.
I'm up for a fishing trip :-)
look - listen up.
what are the only recorded transactions jesus had with water?
1. baptism.
2. walking on it.
3. turning it to wine.
at 1. He was only an apprentice messiah. Doesn't count.
2. If it is impervious to your FEET how do you suppose you get nets to sink in it? not a good fishing omen.
3. like - alchohol is GOOD for fish? Who is gonna eat poisoned fish?
The man couldn't fish to save his life.
I rest my case.
Logic, Craven - you gotta use LOGIC.
No no Deb. If logic were involved we'd have to say he is a worm feeder.
Anywho, I'm pretty sure that he would walk out onto the water and throw his line (it sinks as does hs nets) and fish away.
BTW the water into wine trick was his first miracle, which he was never able to duplicate to his great frustration.
why would his lines and nets sink if he does not?
wasn't he a witch?
they do not sink!
I am speaking of entering the posited situation and using the logic we find therein.
Wonderland has its own logic - but if you try to use that of the ordinary world you are, unlike jesus, sunk.
Dear bunny,
Jesus and the net are separate entities.
Why does the net sink when the boat floats?
G'night, the blimey daylight savings is stealing an hour from me.
capillarity and the boat is hollow.
G'night.
Ok, now let's move on. Take yourself back to 6th grade, and remember those good old days. Here's the next question:
What would Jesus do if he was in 6th grade and saw two 8th graders bullying his best friend. Would he go talk to them, or try to show off his strong fists, or....?
Well, your sig line seems to indicate your take on that one, TGR...
In 6th grade, I'd have gone to find a teacher to discuss what I'd seen and try to get help from some adults.
That's exactly what I had in mind!
Stumble It!
