if you believe that Jesus rose from the dead. Am I right? I know this may sound disrespectful but it is a simple question. I mean zombies supposedly rise from the dead, and Jesus supposedly rose from the dead. You can't disbelieve one without disbelieving the other.

Not true. Jesus was a video gamer, he just respawned. So every Easter is a Gamer's holliday, you play games all day to celebrate respawn day.

Maybe, if someone dosed Jesus with tetrodotoxin.
"Zombi" is also another name of the voodoo snake god Damballah Wedo, of Niger-Congo origin; it is akin to the Kongo word nzambi, which means "god".
Jesus wasn't the only zombie around that weekend according to the Bible:
Matt 28
51 At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split.
52 The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life.
53 They came out of the tombs, and after Jesus' resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many people.
Strange, you would have thought that all the graves opening and the dead people walking around would have been recorded by some Roman historian. Maybe even a couple of them...
The Bible doesn't say what happen to all walking dead. I suppose eventually zombie hunters finished them off...

I remember when "Passion of the Christ" and "Dawn of the Dead" were #1 at the box office from one week to the next. The newpaper titles were really amusing. "Jesus vs. Zombies at the Box office", etc. Of course some people pointed out "Hey, they're both kinda zombie movies when you think about it."
Illwillpress.com had a great clip where the two characters were trying to decide which movie to see, "Passion of the Jesus" or "Dawn of the Zombies".

Hmmm... let's try this:
Penguins are birds.
Anseriformes are birds.
Therefore, penguins are anseriformes.
(I'll let you figure out how the logic goes wrong and how it's applicable to your "argument".)
Also, zombies don't rise from the dead. They are animated corpses that are still dead. Jesus was very much alive (as witnessed by his eating of fish, for example).

Zombies are people who were given an herb that made them sleep so deeply that people couldn't tell if they were alive or dead, then they were buried in shallow graves, and later dug up, by the person trying to convince them they were zombies. I'd believe that, before I believed the other...

Lies! All lies! If you believe Jesus rose from the dead you must believe in -VAMPIRES-, Night of the Living Dead came out, zombies were simply a subset of vampires (as seen in "I Am Legend").

Not exactly the same thing - in Zombie Lore, the person comes back from the dead as a spiritless, brain-dead body that has no ability for self control or choice.
That's very different from the concept of a resurrection where someones spirit reunites with they're body, and they come back as themselves with a perfected body.

Maybe, but wasnt Jesus the son of GOD. I think that he should be able to break a couple of rules.
