In light of ongoing debates on climate change and ‘go green’ campaigns, over 4000 church leaders and members by Congregational and General Insurance in the UK were asked a question: “Would Jesus drive if he embarked on his travels in 21st Century Britain?”

This question was asked In advance of next week’s National Christian Resources Exhibition, where ethically-based home insurance will be discussed. Britain’s church-goers have voted with the result of more than one in four - the highest minority - believing that Jesus would still walk everywhere. Those who reckon he would choose to drive, think his chosen vehicle would be a Campervan.

“I’m not surprised at the results,” said CRE founder Gospatric Home. “Jesus spent his life interacting with people - and you can’t do that from behind the wheel of a BMW. When John Wesley travelled round Britain he chose to ride on horseback, not in a carriage.”
