Jesus
From Transformers Wiki
This article is about the person sworn to by many humans. For the Mexican colorist, see Jesus Aburtov. |
Jesus is presumably a human, but no facts are directly known about him, only other people's claims. For example, Sam Witwicky and his teacher both agree that, if Jesus were in the teacher's shoes, he would give the boy a dishonestly inflated grade to trick Sam's father into buying Sam a car.

Sam Witwicky's dad had promised him that if he kept his grades up, he would give him a car at the end of the school year. But on the verge of summer, Sam's grades were perilously low, and his only chance lay in a final presentation. This went disastrously, and the teacher was prepared to grade him harshly, but Sam explained his situation and begged for leniency. The teacher appeared unconvinced until Sam's final plea: "What would Jesus do?"
Sam was soon seen jubilantly headed for a car dealership with his father. Transformers
Revenge of the Fallen novel
According to Leo Spitz, Jesus was alive during the time Rome held influence in the world. He was also a notable religious figure, comparable to Muhammad or Buddha. He gave a lecture called the Sermon on the Mount, and Leo speculates that if the Internet had existed at the time, history would have proceeded much differently if it had gone viral.

Notes
- In the Marvel UK comic issue "Stargazing", Starscream claims that Christmas is a celebration of the birth of someone called "Christ". Some suggest that Christ and Jesus are one and the same—a deity, in fact—but there is no canon evidence for this.
- Another persistent rumor is that Jesus once died and came back to life. Given this (and the fact that he has only been referred to in dialogue, never established in person), he may simply be a metaphor for Optimus Prime.
