Jehovas Witnesses are not allowed sports cars. Cars should be suitable for transporting other JWs to events and to areas for knocking on doors.

Yeah that's not actually true.

My local Vicar owns a number of Austin Sevens and is a complete Austin Seven nut (he was a mechanical engineer in his previous life).

I dabble a bit with Christianity. I am not "committed" but enjoy the company of many of my Christian friends. Some of whom I have lots in common with (interest in science, technology etc) and some who are just nice people.

They only ever travel in pairs so I can't see the problem with a small two seater. What's their view on Smart cars?

Jehovah's witnesses are encouraged to live within there means, and not to pursue a lifestyle that would be a distraction from being one. So they can choose to own whatever they can afford weather a smart car or a Porsche.

Not to mention tandems - which would give new meaning to "Christ on a Bike"..

It does, but you could say the same about Thomas the Tank Engine

True, but in the spirit of the thread I wasn't offering a facile response.

A Holy Trinity Bike - good idea. I wonder would it sell?

We all know God drives a Triumph Herald as in "Hark the HERALD angels sing" and "Join the TRIUMPH in the skies".

This is Slightly obscure and I know some people may wish hate on me, but oh well.
I was wondering out of all the population of PH are there any Christians who are both follows of Christ and lovers of cars?? I work for a church in London but Christians who are seriously into cars are a rare find. If you are the above please post, maybe we could arrange a meet

Why can't you meet people who are Muslim or atheists and chat about cars?

I am not an atheist but what you say makes perfectly good sense to me.

Thanks for those who have posted, good to know of other Christians, to those who wish simply to insult Christians please don't, we have done nothing to warrant this abuse. I also stated in the original post please don't post anything if you only wish to throw hate at this topic, which is unfair you would not do this to any other group of people. If you find you have any questions about The hope we have in Chirst ask, but please stop abusing this topic

I think that is all well and good and I hope the topic doesn't descend into bickering and abuse. Good luck with that.

When you say things like: "Must be something in it do you not think?"
You can expect people to say "no", and more.

They are not allowed to do oil changes though.
