    Default would you find this offensive walking down your street on halloween?

    okay, so i was at the Nationstates forum, and foudn this awesome topic for funny costume ideas. one guy said zombie jesus.

    You read right. Zombie. *******. Jesus.

    so would you be offended if you saw a guy walking down the street as zombie jesus? I'm considering it for next year.

    It's an old pagan festival, just a bit of fun really. I mean, I don't think we're supposed to believe our dead relatives are going to rise up after midnight, are we?

    How do you make it look like a zombie jesus and not just a hippy zombie? Are you going to carry around a cross all night?

    Perhaps try a zombie Mohammed, and send photos to a Danish newspaper? Or could that cause trouble?

    probably some robes, maybe a halo or something

    carrying around a cross though would be a little far. besides, if he was a zombie he was already taken down from the cross, duh.

    This is a more Backroomish topic.

    I think you already knew the answer to your question before you asked. Since it doesn't offend you, your only question is do you want to offend anyone or maybe, do you care if you offend anyone? You might not get any treats at some houses if they realize what you are supposed to be.

    A Jewish person dressed as zombie Jesus parades around the suburbs of the mid-west US... you just know it's going to end well.
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    I'd dress as zombie Michael Jackson. Then find a balcony and dangle baby Jesus over it.

    Many holidays we mark on our calenders have roots in pagan or other religious purposes. Their meanings have changed over the centuries so that the modern day reasons for celebrating have nearly nothing to do with the original purposes behind them. Christmas is a wonderful example. I don't worry about getting caught up in the specifics. Candy is on sale this time of year, that's all I care about.

    As for the topic of whether Zombie Jesus would offend me: No*. But it would be in extremely poor taste, and whoever would do it would most likely be doing so for the sole purpose of offending someone. If there's any problem i'd have with it, it would be that the person in question is making a deliberate attempt at being an .




    Zombie Sean Connery on the other hand would freak me right the heck out.

    I agree with Monk. Why deliberately look for trouble?
    Hammer, anvil, forge and fire, chase away The Hoofed Liar. Roof and doorway, block and beam, chase The Trickster from our dreams.
    Vigilance is our shield, that protects us from our squalid past. Knowledge is our weapon, with which we carve a path to an enlightened future.

    Well think about it, little kids are encouraged to dress up like vampires, essentially mass murderers. Zombie Jesus is the pinnacle of all that is holy, good, and dead. Where in the bible does it condemn zombies? If halloween cannot be tied to paganism, then zombies cannot be to heretical voodooism.

    If you aren't actually breaking the law with nudity then who cares if your costume is in poor taste. 90% of all Halloween costumes are in poor taste, it's a holiday about cheap thrills and dumb fun. Relax and wear what makes you laugh.

    Personally I find zombie Jesus absolutely hilarious, but I also laughed at an abortion doctor costume I saw that was really over the top gross (Turns out it wasn't supposed to be funny, it was a nut job 'protesting').
