If Jesus is here... what would you do?
A. Tell him to go away.
B. Play chess with him.
C. Talk to him for hours about the Bible.
D. Go with him to help feed the homeless at the shelter.
I bet all of the Atheists will choose A. Am I right?

A little of C and D, I can multitask.
But first I'd make him prove Himself, there's been a few people claiming to be Jesus, not as many Jesuses

As an Atheist I cannot take this test, because Jesus is dead. I don't believe in ghosts. I don't know how to play chess. I would not invite a hippy into my home. The bible is not very interesting. And the shelter is there due to the imaginary god's inability to provide for his children. Good luck.

Yeah, well, Im a Christian... so if Jesus were here I would crawl up in His lap and let him hold me. I would ask Him to tell me some stories as He is the greatest Storyteller of all time. I believe He would laugh with me and cry with me, and I would rejoice in Him and be in complete and total awe that the Savior of the world loves me so much that He would just sit with me and love on me like I have never been loved before. I would thank Him for everything He has done in my life, and in the lives of those I love, and listen to Him tell me the things He has done for me that I didnt even know about. I would go with Him wherever He asked me to go, and praise Him every second that I just got to be in His presence. I honestly believe that all the questions I could ever think to ask Him... when I see His face, I wont even care about those questions anymore... but that He loves me so much, He'll answer them anyway. And I would PRAISE Him with singing and dancing and trembling. And He... He would join me in praise to the Father. And there I will be, with a full heart next to my Jesus, singing and dancing and praising my Abba...my Daddy. O this Lord of mine, how I love Him!
So E, That is the option I would choose. :)

Ask him what he thinks of this:
In Eastern religious thought and philosophy, belief in transmigration seems not to have been part of the most ancient religious beliefs of the Aryan conquerors of India; it appears first in doctrinal form in the Indian religious and philosophical collection of the Upanishads. Ever since, however, samsara (the Sanskrit term) has been one of the major tenets of three major Eastern religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. Thus, according to modern popular Hinduism, the state in which the soul is reborn is predetermined by the good or bad deeds (karma) done in former incarnations; the souls of those who do evil, for example, are reborn in lower states (such as animals, insects, and the spirits of trees). Ultimately, release from samsara and karma is attained after atonement for bad deeds and recognition that the individual soul (atman) and the universal soul (Brahman) are identical.

No, your wrong. It would be C. You seem to think we know God exist, and reject him anyway. That isn't so. If the historical Jesus ( who we think is just a human, not the son of a God) was here I would have plenty of questions to ask him about his life. He is a very important historical figure, whether you believe he is the son of a god or not.

B. I'd expect him to feed the homeless with a snap of his fingers, no homeless shelters required.

B. Just so I can say "Queen Me, Jesus!".
Imagine the funny looks at the homeless shelter.

The answer I was looking for isn't on your list.
If Jesus was here, I'd tell him to trim the hedge, mow the lawn and make sure it was edged nice and straight-like.

He meditates with me. Sometimes he makes funny faces when I'm trying to be holy.
