Dear NotAnAspie,
yeah... according to bible Jesus was walking around quite dead with his gaping wounds still hanging out. I guess that is why he told Mary to stay back.. because maybe he didn't smell too good.
And you chose to be on a thread and be off topic because? Oh, I get it, you don't know what the topic is. The OP never said that Jesus was a zombie, in fact he said the opposite. This is not a long thread, did you bother reading what came before your singularly new understanding?

This passage in Isaiah, Isaiah 26:19-20, has always worried me a little, for it speaks of the dead rising "in those days", meaning the end-times, and tells us to hide in the innermost chambers until the indignation has past. In these strange times in which we live, I feel compelled to shine a light on this Old Testament passage. Your thoughts, theories, explanations, condemnation and insults are welcome.

Young's Literal Translation
1 In that day sung is this song in the land of Judah: 'We have a strong city, Salvation He doth make walls and bulwark.
2 Open ye the gates, that enter may a righteous nation, Preserving stedfastness.
3 An imagination supported Thou fortifiest peace -- peace! For in Thee it is confident.
4 Trust ye in Jehovah for ever, For in Jah Jehovah is a rock of ages,
5 For He bowed down the dwellers on high, A city set on high He maketh low, He maketh it low unto the earth, He causeth it to come unto the dust,
6 Tread it down doth a foot, Feet of the poor -- steps of the weak.
7 The path for the righteous is uprightness, O upright One, The path of the righteous Thou dost ponder.
8 Also, in the path of Thy judgments, O Jehovah, we have waited for Thee, To Thy name and to Thy remembrance Is the desire of the soul.
9 With my soul I desired Thee in the night, Also, with my spirit within me I seek Thee earnestly, For when Thy judgments are on the earth, The inhabitants of the world have learned righteousness.
10 The wicked findeth favour, He hath not learned righteousness, In a land of straightforwardness he dealeth perversely, And seeth not the excellency of Jehovah.
11 O Jehovah, high is Thy hand -- they see not, They see the zeal of the people, and are ashamed, Also, the fire -- Thine adversaries, consumeth them.
12 O Jehovah, Thou appointest peace to us, For, all our works also Thou hast wrought for us.
13 O Jehovah our God, lords have ruled us besides Thee, Only, by Thee we make mention of Thy name.
14 Dead -- they live not, Rephaim, they rise not, Therefore Thou hast inspected and dost destroy them, Yea, thou destroyest all their memory.
15 Thou hast added to the nation, O Jehovah, Thou hast added to the nation, Thou hast been honoured, Thou hast put far off all the ends of earth.
16 O Jehovah, in distress they missed Thee, They have poured out a whisper, Thy chastisement is on them.
17 When a pregnant woman cometh near to the birth, She is pained -- she crieth in her pangs, So we have been from Thy face, O Jehovah.
18 We have conceived, we have been pained. We have brought forth as it were wind, Salvation we do not work in the earth, Nor do the inhabitants of the world fall.
19 Thy dead live -- My dead body they rise. Awake and sing, ye dwellers in the dust, For the dew of herbs is thy dew, And the land of Rephaim thou causest to fall.
20 Come, My people, enter into thy inner chambers, And shut thy doors behind thee, Hide thyself shortly a moment till the indignation pass over.
21 For, lo, Jehovah is coming out of His place, To charge the iniquity of the inhabitant of the earth upon him, And revealed hath the earth her blood, Nor doth she cover any more her slain!'

Dear NotAnAspie,
Clearly you are not an aspie. You didn't even bother reading the whole thread. What you are saying has already been addressed and you have added nothing to the conversation regarding the OP. Did you miss the part where the OP said he wasn't referring to Jesus?

Dear NotAnAspie,
LOL, the topic is apparently meaningless to you. You say whatever foolishness you feel in your hear, truth and honesty are also meaningless to you. I do hope you are younger than 20, because if you are older than that, I will feel really bad for you. Have a great night, you have nothing to add to this conversation. Peace.
ok, I'll pretend like you aren't getting it yet and say this... i was replying to YOU about YOUR reply saying that zombies aren't mentioned in the bible when it CLEARLY STATES that Jesus was walking around after being dead. How much more clear can I make this and how in the wide world of sports do you consider this off topic. Talking about the BIBLE?... CHECK. Talking about ZOMBIES?... CHECK. If you are still not getting this and want to make this some technical off topic issue... knock yourself out... i made my point. I'll also leave Lazarus out of it since this is sticking in your craw.

Your mother and father need to put you to bed. Really, this is the best you have? You don't understand what the word "zombie" means and you don't know that there are people who have come back to life because of CPR? You still haven't read the whole thread. Okay, what do yo want to talk about? Clearly it is not this thread, start a new one on what is bothering you.
You are so mad. None of that made you sound witty in case you were hoping for that. You wanna call my post childish when you post some kind of pretentious pseudo-intellectual reply like this. Give me a break.

Dear SGTSECRET,
I'm guessing you continue to claim there are no zombies in the bible because it doesn't mention any kind of voodoo, which is the only thing that creates a zombie according to you. What it does mention, is miracles, talking snakes, crazy plagues...just because the bible doesn't say 'voodoo' doesn't mean your 'voodoo' zombies may have not existed.
It is very simple, words have meaning and the word "zombie" actually has a meaning. The toxin used to create zombies comes from a blowfish and that fish is not mentioned in the bible either. If you wish to debate the bible you are not respecting the OP and would be off topic. As for what the bible does mention, it mentions all kinds of things; but, it doesn't mention zombies.

Dear SGTSECRET,
Actually, we have absolutely no idea what zombies are and are not supposed to do. All we know is what the movies tell us. Do we know if they really will eat people? Nope. Do we know if they will come in huge groups 'sniffing' out living people who are attempting to hide? Nope. We don't know. Maybe they will talk, maybe they won't eat anything at all, maybe, maybe, maybe.
Actually, we do know what a zombie is and it had nothing to do with the movies. You might want to look at Wikipedia. The word refers to people who have been the victim of VooDoo and they really existed. By using a toxin from a specific fish, the Haitians were able to cause people to become them.

If you go with pop-cultures loose definition of a zombie, sure. That is to say, anyone who is resurrected is a zombie.
If you go with what a zombie actually was, which is as aquestion mentioned, someone being tricked into thinking they had died and came back(usually for the purpose of enslavement), then no not a zombie.
So it depends on how you define zombie.

Dear stonebutterfly,
You are mixing up verses and making mistakes. The quote you give from Revelations is in regard to the two witnesses and has nothing to do with haarp or any other technology. There are no zombies in the bible.
