After reading Bruce’s comment, I had a very horrible thought. Jesus is the “butch” in the relationship between Jesus & Mo and Mo’s the bearded fat-lady rounding out their freak-show relationship.
Great comic, Author. I love all that has been “said” in this particular strip, too. LOL
[…] attitudes of others. The author might defend his attitudes as derived from God’s own, but as a recent Jesus and Mo comic noted, a person can’t say that their own ideas are the same as God’s without proclaiming that […]
People who say “God says” are simply taking themselves for God’s henchmen! God doesn’t need anyone’s help if he’s omniscient and omnipresent (like people say he says he is)!
In respones to carolita’s comment…why would God need henchmen if he’s able to bring down fire and brimstone on someone’s head without just the bat of his eye lashes? Again, this also goes for Alla/Allah in the religion of Islam or Mo, for that matter. If the man (or their God) is able to rip the moon in half (and put it back whole again) then why do they need suicide bombers to do Alla/Allah’s bidding for them to wipe a country (read Israel or any western civilization) off the face of the Earth?

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

Well said!
i think there is an extra “the” in tha last panel
Thanks, mat
Well I SAY… um… another round, please?

glad to have jesus and mo back regularly.
After you’ve created a god in your own image, what else is there to do except put words in its mouth?
And why exactly are you surprised that my god wants you to do what I want you to do?
Say what?
That’s what she said.
Author: you are a genius! 🙂

Like an old marriage; one knows what he wants to say and the other finishes the sentence (before he says it).

So what happens in panel 5?! Do they look at each other in horror and then crumble into dust, or what?

The True Goddess says “Meow”; or, when vexed, :”Pfft.”
All the rest of this is just words.
Ophelia, they spontaneously combust: “Pfft.”.

If you don’t believe this, try living without it.
Living without weather ? o_O
I say that you must not say that!
Why hasn’t this specific cartoon been pasted onto every billboard across the free world?
