Is the author by any chance reading Bad Science in the Guardian or on their website (see link)? They just had very good articles about Wi-Fi and magic pendants. If you haven’t read it, I strongly suggest you do. Fun and alarming (that sometimes serious people believe such things) at the same time.
Obviously what these electromagnetically sensitive people need is a Faraday cage to shield them.
The classic aluminum foil hat is really not adequate because it doesn’t give complete coverage. A metallic burkha would be much better. If they aren’t concerned by frequencies higher than a GigaHertz, they could even have 1 cm holes for ventilation.
Better still might be a real cage with a lock on the door.
Funny you should say that, JohnnieCanuck; the organisation which goes around persuading people they’re electrosensitive will also (for loads of money) convert their homes into Faraday cages.
If it weren’t phlogiston resistant, there’s always antiphlogiston ointment. I have my mother’s old medicine chest. Here’s a picture I just took of one of the items. http://tinyurl.com/ytwk6q
Jesus is a naive, pacifist New Age hippy. Mo is more practical, dominant and aggressive. And also wittier.
I think the author should reread the Gospels. In them Jesus is certainly a pacifist, but he is also totally authoritative, bitingly witty, and much smarter than everyone around him.
In contrast, the Qur’an appears to be a joke-free zone.
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

A metallic burkha hm? Thank you for not provoking my invisible radiation?
Would the metallic burkha or Faraday cage also be phlogiston resistant?
Phlogiston? Now there’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time… a long time..
What? Jesus can’t cure his own headache?
You have to truly believe in the resurrection before you get the ability to heal by a touch. Mark 16:18.
To Jonathan:
Hahaha! Nice.

The characterisation is interesting. And strange.

Well, if it is phlogiston proof, do you think the aether wind would be kept out?
