Try taking a sneak peek at John Wyndham's "The Day of the Triffids". It's a very good (and quick) read and I think you'll find much of the inspiration for "28 Days Later" there. Of course, "Dawn of the Dead" (Romero's 1978 original, not the 2004 remake) - and also its prequel and sequels -, being a precursor to most modern zombie films, is definitely an influence on "28 Days Later".

Hello..\n\nRevelation 20:11-15\n\nThe Judgment at the Great White Throne \n\n11  ¶ And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.\n \n12  And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.  \n \n13  And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.\n \n14  And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.\n \n15  And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.\n\n====================================================\n\nRevelation 21:1-8\n\nThe New Heaven and the New Earth\n \n1  And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.\n \n2  And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. \n \n3  And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.\n \n4  And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.\n \n5  ¶ And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.\n \n6  And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Ome'ga, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.  \n \n7  He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. \n \n8  But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

well, no thought has to go into this, this is historical fact.  Many books were left out of the final book.  The old testament has books like The book of Enoch and there are also later books like the Maccabees I and 2 that are made about a century before christ.  These are called Apocrypha.  There are also many books left out of the new testament or edited in some way, there is the Gospel of Thomas and the Secret Gospel of Marc which is differently edited than the one we currently know.  The problem is, a lot of these books that were taken out of the new testament at least were written many many years after christs death so when the early church created the canon they decided what was most in use and what most applied in terms of creation date.

"For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten." Eccl. 9:5\n\nTHe dead know nothing because death is simply a deep sleep between the life you live after you are born, and the resurection when Jesus comes again and wakes everyone from their graves:\n\n"For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord." I Thes. 4:16, 17\n\nJesus, when talking to the disciples about Lazarus, spoke of death as a sleep.\n\nJohn 11:11 "...Lazarus sleepeth..."\nJohn 11:13 "Howbeit Jesus spake of his death:"\nJohn 11:14 "Lazarus is dead"\n\nCan you imagine Lazarus going straight to heaven when he died, only to be called back down to earth again???\n\nJesus said, Lazarus come 'out' not lazarus come 'down'.\n\nAlso, David we know from the Bible was a righteous man in the eyes of God, though in Acts, we are told he is not in heaven. Why? Because death is a sleep, otherwise he must have been forgotten (not likely):\n\nActs 2:29-34 (Not quoting the whole passage here)\n\n"Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day....For David is NOT ascended into the heavens..."\n\nWhat happens to you after you die? You sleep.\n\nWhat is a soul? Lets see what Bible Kindergarten 101 has to say:\n\n1+1=2\n\n"And the Lord God formed man of the DUST of the ground AND breathed into his nostrils the BREATH of life AND man become a living soul."\n\ndust+breath=soul\n\nsoul-dust=breath\nsoul-breath=dust\n\n2-1=1\n\nSimple enough?  When we die our bodies return to dust, our breath returns to God, and we are nothing (...the sould that sinneth it shall die <perish>...).\n\nWe as Christians trust God to put us back together at the resurection.\n\nWhat a blessed hope we have!\nGod Bless

All of the Gospels were written by people who had never met  Joshua and long after he was dead. Mark is the earliest . It was written  in Syria at least 30 years after JC cashed in his chips. John was written by several people at least 100 years after the Crucifixion.

I don't think there are actually writings original to the mithras sect anymore. I believe the information is mainly from secondary sources.\n\nI could be wrong, though--and would liek to know of a good translation if anyone out there is aware of one!

There is a book called Fallen Angels and the Origins of Evil by Elizabeth Clare Prophet. It offers a pretty good overview of the Book of Enoch and the church covering it up.

The bible(new testament) was written 30-60 years after Jesus died.  The authors never met Jesus, did not know him, and wrote down stories they had HEARD about him.\nJust like the game "telephone", stories become greatly exaggerated.

JESUS SAID THE DEAD WERE ASLEEP WAITING FOR THE RESURRECTION\n\nGenesis 3:19  In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.  KJ Bible\n\nEcclesiastes 9:10  Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.  KJ Bible\n\nNow think about it: What happened to Lazarus when he died? Did some part of him—a soul or a spirit—leave his body and go to live somewhere else? Did Lazarus’ soul go to heaven? Was he alive for four days up there with God and the holy angels?—\n\nNo, he wasn’t. Remember, Jesus said Lazarus was sleeping. What is it like when you are asleep? When you are in a very deep sleep, you do not know what is going on around you, do you?— And when you wake up, you do not know how long you have been sleeping until you look at a clock.\n\nIt is like that with dead people. They do not know anything. They do not feel anything. And they cannot do anything. That is the way it was with Lazarus when he was dead. Death is like a deep sleep where a person doesn’t remember anything. The Bible says: “As for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all.”—Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10.\n\nThink about this too: If Lazarus had been in heaven for those four days, would he not have said something about it?— And if he had been in heaven, would Jesus have made him come back to earth from that wonderful place?— Of course not!\n\n, many people say that we have a soul, and they say that the soul lives on after the body dies. They say that Lazarus’ soul was alive somewhere. But the Bible does not say that. It says that God made the first man Adam “a living soul.” Adam was a soul. The Bible also says that when Adam sinned, he died. He became a “dead soul,” and he returned to the dust from which he had been made. The Bible also says that all Adam’s offspring inherited sin and death too.—Genesis 2:7; 3:17-19; Numbers 6:6; Romans 5:12.\n\nClearly, then, we do not have a soul that is separate from our body. Each one of us is a soul. And since people have inherited sin from the first man, Adam, the Bible says: ‘The soul that sins will die.’—Ezekiel 18:4.\n\nNumbers 31:28  And levy a tribute unto the LORD of the men of war which went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the beeves, and of the asses, and of the sheep:  KJ Bible\nTHIS SCRIPTURE SHOWS THAT HUMANS & ANIMALS ARE "SOULS"\n\n32 What is this “death”? Death is the opposite of life. God had held before man the prospect of endless life on earth if he obeyed. However, he disobeyed, and the penalty was death, unconsciousness, nonexistence. God had said nothing about transferring man’s life to a spirit realm or to a fiery “hell” if he disobeyed and died. He had warned man: “You will positively die.” It was the man-slaying Devil who had lied in saying: “You positively will not die.” (Genesis 2:17; 3:4; John 8:44) What all men have inherited from Adam is dustlike death.—Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10; Psalm 115:17; 146:4.\n\nYOU JUST GO TO SLEEP, WHEN JESUS COMES THE SECOND TIME, IF YOU ARE WORTHY OF A RESURRECTION, HE WILL WAKE YOU UP.

Ah good question - as it's oft misquoted...\n\nFrom Revelation 20:\nThen I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what he had done. Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.\n\nBut Christians believe (and I think it's pretty obvious) that:\n\n"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"\n\nand:\n\n"For the wages of sin is death"\n\nSo everyone will be found guilty and deserves death.\n\nHowever, Christians believe that Jesus paid the price for us (ie he died in our place) and because we choose to trust in him, He will step in and say - the price has been paid and so they'll get into heaven, not because of anything they have done, but simply because of God's grace.\n\n"Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him."\n\nHence, as Christians we should not judge others - because we are no better - we all only get into heaven by grace.  Hence, Jesus saying:\n\n"Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven."
