‘Did Jesus ride dinosaurs?’ : Bobby Jindal’s Twitter Q&A hilariously backfires

http://www.rawstory.com/2015/06/did-jesus-ride-dinosaurs-bobby-jindals-twitter-qa-hilariously-backfires/

Detractors of Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal on Twitter have pounced on the hashtag #AskBobby. Designed by the Jindal social media team as a way for citizens to engage with the presidential candidate, #AskBobby was hilariously misappropriated almost immediately by thousands of people.

Jindal will appear at a town hall-style event in Iowa on Tuesday at 6:00 PM. His presidential campaign’s Super PAC invites potential voters to ask questions Jindal on Twitter, leading up to this evening’s event:


Some of these are pure gold.

#AskBobby - are you still opposed to volcano monitoring? Because we need that to live out west. Kinda like NOLA needs hurricane monitoring

I have no idea what Jesus drives, but I know that God drives a Plymouth.

It says right in the Bible that God drove Adam and Eve out of the garden of Eden in a Fury.

That's a very interesting question.

All I can say is that the Lord works in mysterious ways.

And so does Satan.

appearances, and perhaps even a FOX contract. In fact, that is what mist of the Republican candidates are running for.

11. What would Jesus Drive?
Tue Jun 30, 2015, 07:18 PM

Most people assume WWJD is 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 pickup trucks, because 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 motorcycle, as evidenced by a Bible 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, the Apostles car pooled in a Honda... "The Apostles were in one Accord."
