Control group? Wouldn’t that be the long term average preceding boobquake day? A quick look showed no statistically significant increase beyond the expected variability.
Am I missing some innuendo here? I hate it when I miss innuendo.
I love this comic. Any plans to support either Draw Mohammad Day or Mohammad Profile Pic Day? Any chance you have a nice avatar sized image of Mo’s head that I could use, with attribution of course, on various profiles?
If I had suffered any damage from that earthquake, I would have sued Deepak. After all, he publicly admitted it was his fault. If anyone did suffer a loss, feel free to file suit in small claims court. (Because he either has to pay up or admit he’s a fraud.)

I think she did something with her hair. If you look on the 20th April edition, she wore it long, with her fringe brushed over. Much more businesslike now, don’t you agree?

THE BOOBQUAKE – 911!
hey, atheists don’t even BELIEVE IN BOOBIES!!!
they thought BOOBIES had no effect… WRONG!

@Stonyground:
For me, boobs are weapons of mass distraction. Just an average guy here, your milage may vary, especially if you’re in a Catlick church where Mass Distraction is redundant.
That comment by dmabus reminds me of my old Monty Python book, which had a piece about The Secret Welsh Martial Art Of Llapgoch. They’ll Never Kick Sand In Your Face Again.
Whenever I meet peeps like atheismwars and dmabus (who sound as if they are one and the same bloke), I cannot decide if I am appalled at how they can allow their passion to make them stupid (or is their stupidity somhow freeing their passion?), or if I envy them their fervor. I mean seriously, there is few things if any in my life that could move me to such high-pitched ullulations of faith and protest. I’d probably have a problem begging for my life with such a bubbly fecundity. I’d just be too ashamed to let myself go that much.
Wasn’t it Hemingway who said that happiness in an intelligent person was perhaps the rarest of things? Do you think flamming lunatics like those are happier, have an easier life? Who says that reality is preferable to fantasy? I wonder…
(PS: @Altair IV, thanks for the blog-link, it was hilarious to read… the comments even more so than the entry itself. A clear case where the real thing outshines satires like J&M in ways the comic could never replicate.)
@ Martin Stennert. Alternatively: “Life is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel” (Horace Walpole).
Those who do both are p’raps bi-polar?
The dmabus-atheismwars spambots’ operator and everyone else in a *free* society/forum are *free* to believe whatever they want in a *free* society.
What is it arguing for/against exactly? I went all TL;DR on the copy-and-paste-manifesto and skimmed until I hit non-AI with others’ comments.
It’s kind of hard to follow a collection of unrelated links and ungrammatical spew. A real person would at least have a) a thought; b) a point; c) an argument; d) support for such.
I wouldn’t give a toss if I were the only person out of 7 billion who didn’t believe in a god: no one can “prove atheism” (whatever the fuck that means) to me, and no one can take it away from me either.
Jesus & Mo (the characters) are absurd, blinkered, and oddly very sweet. J&M (the cartoon) is brilliant: sharp, delicious, irresistible. Salman Rushdie
Jesus and Mo cartoons are wonderfully funny and true. Richard Dawkins
Jesus and Mo make the world a better place, bless their little hearts. Ophelia Benson
In a world defined by outrage and offence and liberal spinelessness, Jesus and Mo is a treasure, whose value we should never fail to recognize. Read them. Laugh. And think. Kenan Malik
The brilliant, celebrated, freaking hilarious atheist comic strip ... Greta Christina
...rays of sanity in a befuddled world. Keri Hulme
The liveliest depictions of Muhammad currently available... Malise Ruthven
J & Mo is the funniest and most consistently thought-provoking cartoon strip on the Net. In a saner world, it would run in a major newspaper. Nelson Jones, Heresy Corner
Consistently amusing, frequently thought-provoking and often heart-warming. New Humanist
Jesus & Mo is one of the most wonderful things on the internet.. JT Eberhard
Wittily captures much of the absurdity of religious apologetics. Mano Singham
I love jesusandmo.net cartoons - witty and sharp! Katha Pollitt
Often hilarious, frequently wry, these cartoons do what all the best cartoons do: they tell the truth through humour. Terry Sanderson, NSS President
...a wonderfully acid British cartoonist... Nick Cohen
I love the scrappy mockery of Jesus and Mo. Freedom of speech
includes the freedom to mock any person, any thing, any activity, and
any belief -- and J&M stands up for this unflinchingly Richard Stallman
...empowering, important and deeply progressive, not to mention hilarious... Council of Ex-Muslims

It must be nice, having a webcomic where the material practically writes itself 😉
Jennifer McCreight’s blog, where boobquake began: http://www.blaghag.com/2010/04/in-name-of-science-i-offer-my-boobs.html
Her article in the Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/belief/2010/apr/29/boobquake-earthquake-immodest-dress-iran#
The Boobquake experiment wasn’t scientific anyway. Where was the control group?

does it count if Deepak is a big boob?
Who’s Deepak Chopak anyway?
“Even I’m not so gullible…” – has anyone actually quantified exactly how gullible Jesus is?

@Alverant:
DUH! A man – writes stupid books for gullible people. You don’t have Internet?
Or was that irony?
@gsw
I don’t pay much attention to celebrity news (including movie stars, rappers, “singers”, and so on).
Yet another good reason to rid the world of Deepak.
@Alverant
GOOGLE is your friend 😉
If I had suffered any damage from that earthquake, I would have sued Deepak. After all, he publicly admitted it was his fault. If anyone did suffer a loss, feel free to file suit in small claims court. (Because he either has to pay up or admit he’s a fraud.)
The best comments that I saw on this matter, sorry that I can’t remember where, went something like this:
“If there is a devastating earthquake somewhere on Earth on that day, we will never hear the end of it.”
Someone immediately came back with:
“Yes but then the women will be able to take over the world by threatening to unleash their boobs of mass destruction.”
Did the Barmaid get new glasses or something? She looks different.
“Did the Barmaid get new glasses or something? She looks different.”
I think she did something with her hair. If you look on the 20th April edition, she wore it long, with her fringe brushed over. Much more businesslike now, don’t you agree?
who is Deepaak Choopak?
heheh i have heard abaout chupa cobra, but i dont think its the same thing
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepak_Chopra
And it’s Chupacabra (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chupacabra), not “Chupa Cobra”. Sheesh… ^_~

Of course, it’s not like that’s a particularly hard feat to accomplish. (http://skippytheskeptic.blogspot.com/2008/05/who-hell-is-david-mabus.html)
