Is it my imagination or did Jesus kick a fig trees ass and then talk smack about a mountain? Kind throws a curve on what most of would expect as an answer to all those annoying WWJD stickers doesn't it?

Throughout the scriptures the fig tree was representative of Israel. His curse was upon Israel for their unbelief. I've always felt the WWJD movement to be a bit flawed since Jesus was one who's actions carried a bit more weight than your average church-goer. I doubt the WWJD argument would work in a court of law if you were to walk into a church raffle and started overturning tables, yet that is similar to what Jesus did when he walked into the temple and busted up the place for turning it into a marketplace.
