In the walking dead, they go into what I believe is a Southern Baptist church, which has a near life sized statue of a crucifix. Is that common amongst Southern Baptists?

Nope I have never seen one. I remember that episode and thought that was a very Catholic thing to see in a little back woods church.

Yes. Everything shown on the Walking Dead is true-to-life and zombies are a very real threat to our existence.

Excuse me for not elaborating further, but I have some bodies that need burnin' before they turn to walkers or I'll have a big problem on my hands.

What is the eschatology preferred by Southern Baptists?

Southern Baptists get together to do things like missions and educational endeavors, but there is a lot of difference between churches on various doctrinal positions. The Baptist Faith and Message 2000 is the doctrinal statement for those participating in the convention and it is intentionally silent many points of eschatology. It just states that Christ will return in His own way and His own time.
