I've read World War Z and Pride, Prejudice & Zombies, so an invasion of the living dead is on my "manageable" list. Sarah Palin for 2012 however...

I love Max Brooks in the straightest, manliest way possible. In other words, I'd have his babies. ((400 BABIES!)) The Zombie Survival Guide has become a secondary Bible to me. I need to pick up a copy of Pride, Prejudice & Zombies. Sounds like a good read, but I haven't read the original yet. Will this affect my interest/understanding of the book in any way?

I see no way that this is bad, unless they're immediate family or people you don't hate.

I believe in ghosts way too much for my own good. I'm aware I would think half the shit that scares me is not scary at all, and is more of an annoyance, if I thought ghosts weren't real. (Such as when the bathroom door of my old home would close of its own accord, and when you knocked on it, you'd hear something knock back.)

I could excuse those things as the wind causing the door to close, maybe bad hinges, and just echo in the case of the knock, but ooooooh jesus, did I freak the fuck out when those things happened. "OH EM GEE GOASTS!11"

I'm a believer in aliens, it seems silly that we're alone in the universe. Ghosts, not so much. Though, if Ghosts are out the, the so-called "Ghost Hunters" would be the last to find them I'll bet.

If there is no cure, it is surely a mercy kill. Which, I believe, has been brought up in here a time or two. Once the flesh and mind rot away, they are almost bodaciously walking corpses, incapable of ever returning to the way they were and only spreading the disease further. Sure, if you'd like to petition for Somnambulist Rights, by all means, I encourage you. Meanwhile, I'm going up in a second floor and then breaking the stairs behind me.

((Plus, it was a weak attempt at humor. I do not succeed well.))

I'm not saying that the zombies are still people. I'm saying that people fantasize about that sort of thing because they just want to kill billions of people.

Ah, well, in that case, its no different from video-games. We need outlets in our everyday lives to prevent said murdering of otherwise innocent civilians. Some people pick up a controller and beat a hooker half to death and then park their car on top of them until cheddar appears and blood pools around the soles of their tennis shoes, or one can pick up a pen and paper and write about over 4/5 of the population turning into ravenous monstrosities that solely wish to feed off the "living," and what the other 1/5 does to cope and retaliate with this.

As a guy who goes to a Catholic School (who isn't Catholic), religion class has showed me how truly flawed Catholicism is. In class, I see that the right hand really doesn't know what the left is doing, because they preach acceptance and tolerance, but you never really see any of that message practiced that much. They say that the reason why they won't let Joe Biden take communion is because he's pro-choice, and you can't take communion if you haven't confessed your sins (his sin is being pro-choice). Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Jesus dine with sinners? Didn't he preach to accept others, regardless of their choices or their lifestyles? Besides, that seems an awful lot like singling out to me. You don't see regular people barred from taking communion when they're pro-choice.

It seems to me that the Catholic Church changes out of necessity for its survival, not out of moral imperative.

Weak? In what way? Is it a cop-out to write something synonymous?

I'm just saying that it's no different, and people who fantasize about killing zombies are no different than average video-game players. Its just a difference in media, more often than not.
