See, now this is exactly the kind of thing that scares me about “the faithful.” As long as you believe in something? As long as you live your delusions as willfully as me? As long as we all go down together?
They both pretend to know things that they cannot possibly know – I love the way the barmaid puts things. And the way J and Mo just float right over them.
In Judaism the matriarch figure is very important; if your mother is Jewish you technically are, but not if your father is. Although, if you don’t go to an orthodox synagogue only men can be rabbis…
Barmaid reminds me so much of Ms. Sara Bellum from The Powerpuff Girls. She is the faceless voice of reason and logic and secretary to the Mayor and advises him and the Girls in their adventures.
LOVE this site, thanks so much for the smiles and thinks, Author!
Correction to Ottebrain, sorry but that is not strictly true any more if it ever was. You can be Jewish with a Jewish father only, or even with not a Jewish relative in sight so long as you convert properly.
The State of Israel has loads of inclusive rules about this.
It’s nice to see a government being inclusive.
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

Awwww, isn’t that sweet? If only real people could think of things this way.
I rather think quite a lot of people *do* think that way and that it is hardly a good thing.
Oh boy! Some alliance this is…
Hey, she said “goodbye” in Icelandic. (Yeah, that’s “bless.” Bummer for us unbelievers.)
See, now this is exactly the kind of thing that scares me about “the faithful.” As long as you believe in something? As long as you live your delusions as willfully as me? As long as we all go down together?
I’m shuddering right now. Shudder, shudder.
Coulda Woulda Shudder..
They both pretend to know things that they cannot possibly know – I love the way the barmaid puts things. And the way J and Mo just float right over them.
What a wonderful summary of ecumenism. It’s the act of pretending that we share.
Aaawww!! Jesus and Mo having a hug!
This is adorable. Their people should do the same.
More than four years on, and this is still topical. Take a bow, Baroness Warsi!
Why can’t real religions concentrate on what they share: hatred of women and gay people?
“They both pretend to know things that they cannot possibly know – I love the way the barmaid puts things. ”
Wait, is the barmaid secretly Sam Harris?
