Zombie Jesus Day or Easter?

There is a piece in the Religion Bulletin on "Zombie Jesus Day" by Philip Tite, who plays with the importance of labels, shifting perceptions, and multiple "ownership" of holidays.  Quite appropriate for my recent discussion of the tombs opening in the Gospel of Matthew a few days ago, which has further links between the Gospel narratives and Zombies.

Thanks for tackling this subject. You might be interested in my related post on Zombie Jesus (http://www.theofantastique.com/2010/12/27/catholic-theologian-rejects-zombie-jesus/), and my chapter on this in connection with zombie walks in my chapter in The Undead and Theology (https://wipfandstock.com/store/The_Undead_and_Theology/).
