"Top blog/Renato Obeid's World/Today's pick: This rambling weblog is worth reading not so much for its satirical posts but more for its insight into the minutiae of life in Lebanon, including the etiquette of road accidents and how to hire a taxi.”

DRIVING ME CRAZY!
- it's Yahweh or the highway for Christian group
In the United States the Evangelical Environmental Network (a wonderful combination of the fascism of religous fundamentalism and the fascism of environmental fundamentalism) thinks, like most of these groups, that they and they only know exactly what God wants, requires and mandates - right down to Jesus Christs motoring choice!
They ran TV ads asking "what would Jesus drive?".
If your'e not too sure what the answer is I suggest you phone a moron who'l tell you that the answer is "not an SUV".
But even a moron could warn of the dangers of mixing Church and Statesman (the Statesman is a popular General Motors Holden model in Australia) and the importance of seperating the two and the dangers of groups with indulgent vested interests and personal agendas disguising these with and dressing them up as Godly requirements!
I certainly know what the Evangelical Environmental Network "drive" - a trojan horse!
I also know what Budha would drive - a Hummer.
As for what Jesus would really "drive" - historical records show that Jesus would drive the money changers, the charlatans and other people who usurp and coopt His name for their own vested interests and personal agendas out of the temple!
The Evangelical Environmental Network and all!
