Show me the Zombie
If Jesus gets up out of that tomb and starts doing miracles *without* any commercial endorsement (a miracle right there), then I'll believe they found it.

If Jesus gets up.
I will never cease to be amazed at how much modern thought is influenced by a few books on gods and demons written by people who thought the world flat. This is the 21st century, right? We have given up on the idea that the flat earth is the center of the Universe, right? We don't still believe in ghosts, do we? And most of us, please let it be so, most of us have given up on the notion of a "God in man's image" yes? It is all so s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g.

It would seem, therefore, that the three human impulses embodied in religion are fear, conceit, and hatred. The purpose of religion, one might say, is to give an air of respectibility to these passions. -- Bertrand Russell

Yes, it's death.
That, and people forgetting who you were.

Dude, I said "if".
I also thought the use of word "zombie" might have indicated the level of snark. Plus the ripoff of Jerry Maguire. A multilevel snark and you bemoan belief in noseeums.
I thought the reason no one had responded up till now was because it was a bad joke. Now I know it.

Dude, I thought my comment was in line w/yours.
My impression is that your views concerning medieval superstitious nonsense are not dissimilar from mine.

Probably similar.
Ghosts and goblins and other superstitions are entertaining at times in a well written story. Other than that, pretty much a big giant waste of time.
