"She Wasn't Driving Like a Christian," Says Driver Who Rammed Car
A driver who rammed another car at high speed outside San Antonio last week told police that Jesus had told him to do so because the other motorist was not "driving like a Christian."

In my experience, He is usually satisfied if you just give a lousy driver the finger, but in this case I guess that wouldn't have gotten the message across.

According to a news release from the county sheriff's office, the driver told first responders that the driver of the other vehicle "was not driving like a Christian and it was Jesus' will for him to punish the car." He similarly told a policeman that "God said she wasn't driving right, and she needed to be taken off the road." The Lord does work in mysterious ways.

The man claimed he had reached 100 mph before hitting the other car with his pickup, although it doesn't seem that police were able to confirm that. The two cars did end up in the median and were heavily damaged, but the fact that neither driver was seriously injured suggests that the man might have been exaggerating. On the other hand, it was a rear-end collision, so the effective closing speed might have been much less.

A police lieutenant had a different explanation for why there were no injuries. "God must have been with them," he said, "because any other time, the severity of this crash, it would have been a fatal [crash]." Well, we know God was with at least one of them, but maybe He really was trying to help rather than holding down the gas pedal.

The man did not say what the other driver had allegedly been doing that caused him to smite her.

I'm going to have to remember that one. Currently the phrase "Obama told me to do it" is going pretty well.

Only if you get the A-OK from Jesus.

Jesus told me to rob the bank because the teller was not dispensing the money in a christian fashion.

No. The Christian thing to do is to turn the other fender when someone rams you.

Mine is because "blacky is keeping me down...."

I wonder if the road raging hand of God's name was Gabriel?

Both the driver and police lieutenant have no idea what they are talking about.

FIXED. Religion has nothing to do with this person being an idiot. They were being anything but Christian if that was how the events transpired. I'm not sure which is worse...that accident or the logic of your post.... :confused:

:music: I've got a mind that can steer me to your house
and a heart that can bring you red flowers
My intentions are good and honest and true
but under my hood, is internal combustion power

and Satan is my motor:music: :evil:

You're agnostic, we are not the same bucko.
