My guess is that the kind of person who would know what "wtf" means would not be offended to see "wtfwjd".
I personally do not put anything on my car for fear of vandalism, because I live in a red state. |

What The F**k Would Jesus Do?
No, I don't like the curse word in there. |

The original phrase is, What Would Jesus Do?
This is combined with the net acronym WTF (What The F**k?)
To produce WTFWJD? (What The F**k Would Jesus Do?)
Tasteless, isn't it? |

I know what it means.
And it's offensive on more levels than I can count.
Including the appearance that you don't value your own life.
I'm not a christian, but I got the impression that he gave his
life for something he thought was a worthy cause. You are
taking a risk for the sake of a pointless joke, in his name.

Personally I wouldn't care if I saw that and I am not a Christian but I wouldn't do it because you never know how someone else may react. If someone becomes offended by that, someone could do some damage. Something to consider.

I'm not offended, but I also don't think it's funny.

You can blame that one on Paul. Mister "all things to all men." He went around telling the pagans that they could white-wash all their gods and practices, give them new names, and everyone can pretend they share a religion. They've been doing it ever since.
