Day 6: Zombie Jesus Day

Today is Zombie Jesus Day, or more commonly known as Easter Sunday. This day celebrates the resurrection of Christianity's savior, Jesus Christ. But I find this day to be pretty funny. If you read the quote just before this entry, you'll get some of what I'm saying. But, let us travel back in time for a moment to the day this event is believed to have occurred. We're outside a tomb in the Holy Land the day Jesus died. It's fairly common, even expected, for loved one's to mourn and cry at the tomb/grave. But not today......today you see a guy you saw die rise into the clouds never to be seen again. Let's take a moment, think about this, and let that sink in. The normal course of things would have that a person/animal/thing dies and that's the end of it. That's the normal cycle of life and we know not to expect anything else. So what must have been running through the minds of the people nearby? I can only think of what I might say: "Holy shit look at that dead guy!"or "What the f*ck!" Why? because that's not supposed to happen when you die. In fact, in the history of mankind, the scenario of Jesus rising from the dead has never repeated itself with anybody, and science can't replicate it either. So, do we believe spontaneous reanimation can truly occur once dead? NO! Unless you're a zombie, which appears to be the case. I wonder if this story would make a good movie--here's the plot: Boy is born in a ghetto to a single mother because the father wanted a paternity test after she claimed she was "still a virgin". The father subsequently leaves the picture never to be seen again. Boy grows up, lives through his awkward teenage years and starts a gang. His gang is very loyal to him but one of his most trusted followers betrays him to a rival gang. He later dies at the hands of this rival gang and some how comes back to life, after clearly being "capped" many times, and takes revenge on those who ended his life. The End. Sounds like the plot of a crappy movie right? Yeah, I thought so too.
