Would a Waffle House have been a big seller in the days of Jesus.....?

Waffle House is awesome, but really, they didn't have anything close in Roman times (days of jesus).  The concept of a franchise hadn't been thought up yet.  They just had individual inns and taverns that served whatever food they wanted.  \n\nWould they have liked waffle house?  Of course they would have.  People like it now because it tastes good.  It's food that tastes great and has lots of calories.  They would have burned them off quicker then than we do now because they had to walk everywhere.\n\nI guess that a breakfast would probably cost about two or three Roman AS.

WWJD?  Just because it is modern America probably wouldn't change anything.\nLuke 4:16  And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up for to read.\n\nYou would still find him going to synagogue on Sabbath -- so he would probably never cross paths with the modern Christians.\n\nPlease, don't insult modern religious Jews who are all descendants of the Pharisees by misusing the title as you have done.

oh definately, you are so right! I feel I can add to this...I also believe that, if Jesus had nothing to say on the subject, and if his disciples too, had nothing to say on the subject...if nothing can be found in the collected mythology of the nomadic tribes that form Jesus's ancestry, and noone can be found to say anything that sounds like Jesus or his disciples or his nomadic ancestors could have said it, and if we cannot imagine ourselves what he might have done.........we should look to the Easter bunny for inspiration.

Yes. The Sunday Law will be enforced and a great tribulation will fall upon the Earth. In fact, did you know that it is illegal to sell cars on Sundays in Illinois!!!! Here's another fact: It's illegal to sell cornflakes in Columbus, Ohio. Pretty weird. But, the prophecies in Revelations (specifically Revelation 13) will happen. \n\nFeel free to contact me at any time if you have more questions. Yes, I am a Seventh-Day Adventist, too.

I think there are occasions when it would be okay. For example, in the Bible when people are selling things in the temple in John 2:12-16 it says:\n\nAfter this he went down to Capernaum with his mother and brothers and his disciples. There they stayed for a few days. \n\n 13 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.\n\n 14 In the temple courts he found men selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money.\n\n15 So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple area, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.\n\n16 To those who sold doves he said, "Get these out of here! How dare you turn my Father's house into a market!"\n\nHere, Jesus has a right to be angry and rude.

I wouldn't put it past him to do so. It's like a business. You do what you have to do to make your product sell........Salvation is what everyone wants...

I was in my mid 20's when Jesus delivered me from a life of drugs, booze, cigs, etc.\n\nA christian man asked if he could pray for me, and when he did, within minutes, I was a totally changed person because God answered that man's prayers.  The Lord totally delivered me from those drugs, booze, cigarettes, etc, along with the desire and their affects.  Of course, I DID have to say "Yes" to the Lord, but He did all the rest.

No. Apple wouldn't sell. \n\nAnd it would have been pretty pointless for them to launch their 'iPod killer' a few weeks before buying out Apple. That would be a bit of a waste of money, really.

Regardless of whether Jesus was a real guy, I think that the meme we see today was started by Peter and Paul.  It seems unlikely that Jesus could have come up with all of that stuff about eternal salvation on his own.

It sounds like your guest speaker was expressing his own opinion; or maybe he was referring to the growth of the pornography industry over the past couple of decades. It's a multi-billion-dollar-per-year industry and that means A LOT of people are buying the stuff. And it stands to reason that if a lot of people are buying it, then at least some of them must be churchgoers.  But think about it: These simple facts, recited in a sermon, might get your senior pastor into a lot of trouble with his congregation; could even cost him his job.  \n\nNow are you really surprised that he's never mentioned it?

The bible does mention unicorn's unless you got the version that changed them into donkeys..But yes they could all have been real..I think Unicorn's became those whales with the horns (narwhal) when they missed the boat..

Yes! I would also send out someone to pick up some food because there are so many disciples today! I love the word of God! The Good News! Jesus died not only for me but you and the rest of the world! Hosanna to the Highest! I would welcome anyone with open arms though!

I would have a few glasses of wine with Jesus Christ and ask him if he was a) the son of God or just a prophet b) if he was the son of God, did he realise all the crap that would unfold to do with religion over the next 2,000 years and c) if he did know, then was it really all worth it.

Well, Jesus turned a lot of heads in the Bible.  I'm sure he'd do the same if he were here today.  As for going to the strip clubs and seeing the da vinci code ... a whole other subject.\n\nNote that when Jesus spoke to the woman at the well he was very kind to her.  He spoke of her sin and told her to change her ways.  He didn't engage in the sin itself.\n\nYes. It would affect my faith.

I'll bet if Jesus was around today he would hitch-hike
