George,
I've always had trouble with WWJD. Jesus would heal the sick, raise the
dead, feed the hungry with whatever crumbs were available. I'm not quite
sure how the principle behind the cleansing of the Temple would be
translated into action relative to at least some of the televangelists.
But none of these things are being done by our contemporaries.
I note also that many of those who seem to subscribe to WWJD are adept at
truncated quotations. "Judge not" is one of their favorites.
