I think most of us on this side of the belief fence have a pretty good idea of “what it must be like” to be a person of faith. We are quite a bright bunch, on the whole.
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

Empathy is quite a tough nut to crack…is it not? My failure to buy into other persons delusions…is that failure? Not that I give a shit….
I think most of us on this side of the belief fence have a pretty good idea of “what it must be like” to be a person of faith. We are quite a bright bunch, on the whole.
Nailed it!
Oh, too soon?
The modern trend of lets-pretend Empathy leaves me cold…
He is Risen…or so the faithful proclaim. I reckon it’s all bullshit….

One more Hitch moment to enjoy – https://youtu.be/-j6rN33hqf4?t=2363
Hitch was a formidable intellect. He was always victorious in the war of wits…but he was fighting against unarmed religious types wasn’t he….
@SB: so, by inference: Bright people have a pretty good idea of what it must be like to not be bright? I’m not sure that scans …
