That man would be dead."

I have never been a religious person or a church-goer of any sort. I've studied a variety of religions on an academic level because A) I needed the elective credits and B) as an outsider, it's interesting to see how religions have influenced cultures and helped to shape our modern world.
Now, I understand, on a purely intellectual level, that people get pretty worked up about this Jesus guy. And, hey, why not, right? He had some very groovy ideas about how to live, though it sure would be nice if most of the people who were so worked up about him actually behaved how he advised.
But that's another topic.
Anyway, the sheer fervor he inspires in some people is something I've never fully grasped.
Until, one day while driving somewhere with Lydia, I was struck as if from a blackhole-powered cannon.
"What if Jesus is their Optimus Prime?"
And it made sense.

Worst leader? G1 Galvatron BY FAR, as he had destroyed nearly everything that Megatron had built (loyalty, confidence, drive and ambition) Only rule through fear and brute force carried through in the end.

you know when people ask me to descrbe primes character i alwayd describe him as a cross between jesus and alexander the great.
greatest military mind in the history of his people and a guy with the courage of his amazingly alutristic and noble convictions that'd inspire an entire world of followeres that they actually could defeat megatron
G1 optimus prime for the win. not only the best leader of TF but one of the best leader creations since captain america.
hell im a pacifist but id go to war with prime if he asked and if he was a real bloke id vote him to be lead my country for life. christ knows the usual shower would be scared wittless of a character like him. seriously the closed we got in reality is nelson mandella
