Zombie Christ!?



Here is a sketch I did during Easter of 2006. I even wrote something about it around the same time. So, here ya go!
Sunday, April 16, 2006:
Am I going to hell? That is if hell exists. I was driving home from work today, yes on Easter Sunday, and I began thinking about reasons for this holiday, more specifically the option that is celebrated most. No, not throwing an embryo that is surrounded by a nutrient material that serves as a protective covering for many animals into boiling water and then defacing them with various dyes and adonrments, silly! No, I'm not speaking of rotting away our enamel and forming a pitted area in our teeth by ingesting water-soluble crystalline carbohydrates that have a characteristically sweet taste, goofball! I'm talking about the resurrection of that Jesus fella!
After considering the meanings for this holiday, for some reason or another, I began thinking about zombies. Next, I deduced that if Jesus hadn't "ascended into heaven and was seated at the right hand of the Father" he would have become one of the undead!
I repeated this discovery to my own father, who is Catholic and whom I have been in arguments with over less ridiculous religious repartee, and to my surprise he chuckled! We then had a full-scale discussion, as opposed to a partially-scaled discussion, over whether zombies should be allowed to become citizens of the United States and whether or not they should have the right-to-work and reap benefits from federal and state governments.
Now my questions to the thoughtful public.
1. In your opinion, am I going to hell?
2. What are the rights of the undead?
3. Moreover, would these rights be different had Jesus been a zombie as well?
