What difference would this make to you, other than learning such a thing is possible?

To me it would make no difference.

Whoops typo in the poll question. How do I change it?
Paul said that if there is no resurrection of the dead then Christ is not risen.  1 Corinthians 15:12-18.  Therefore other people should be resurrected all of the time, like those zombies that popped out of their graves when Jesus was crucified and went to visit their buddies in Jerusalem.  Now, based on your experience and the testimony of your relatives, friends, neighbors, and enemies, how many of them or you have ever seen anyone who was legitimately resurrected from the dead?  

As for myself I may have loved people who have died but I don't want to see them as zombies.
