The Walking Jesus


Everyone is talking about it:  The phenomenon of rising after death and viciously trying to find others to spread your uncontrollable thirst for fle...Christianity.  Of course I am writing about the unmistakable coincidence of the resurrection of Jesus and the season finale of The Walking Dead.  Easter has never brought me as much joy as it did this year.  No other day has combined a few of the things I love most:  eating chocolate bunnies, small chickens filled with marshmallow cream, and watching Darryl pump arrows into the heads of zombies.  

The resurrection of Jesus Christ and The Walking Dead have one thing in common:  They both leave us with a lot of questions.

Will baby Judith share Jesus' fate and also get shanked by those trying to jew the gang out of the prison?  Will ghost Laurie make an appearance (Jesus was also affiliated with a whore for awhile, wasn't he?)?  Will more than one black person be able to stay at alive at a time after this season?   

Regardless of the answers it is crucial today to take the time to commemorate the coincidence of Easter and the season finale of The Walking Dead.
