I think we all need to watch our fucking language.

Ha ha ha!! That’s brilliant!! I can’t believe, though, after reading through these comments, how many people are so offended by a commonly used cuss word which has obviously lost its full strength over the decades.

We laugh at Jesus and Mo when THEY take offence when others criticize their religions. Now many of us can laugh at all of YOU for taking offence to a simple cuss word. It is equally ridiculous, and equally funny, and by the way… my irony meter exploded.

That’s right, it didn’t go “sprung!” It EXPLODED!

“Its former power”, Nina- *its*. Have you forgotten the lessons of the last strip so quickly?!

I also don’t see what’s wrong with a cheap laugh – humour mainstays are generally cheap laughs – the pies in the face, a kick to the balls or a man in a dress.

I also think that Jesus saying fuck actually elevates it out of the cheap laugh label that would apply to any other non-religious character – but it’s because of who is saying it that the word regains some of it’s former power – the dramatic tension of the word being uttered by a person it’s unexpected from

I like a cheap laugh. I also like expensive laughs but they cost more. I’d have to work 28 hours a day to be able to afford an expensive laugh. It’s alright for you rich buggers…………….

Jesus used the f-word? When?

Unfortunately I need to agree with Oliver – This strip, as a lot of them lately, has become predictive. I mean, I am deeply fond of J&M and have been laughing about them for years, yet the wit and creativity of former strips too often appears to be reduced to new versions of one old punchline.

Keep it up, Author, you can do better than that!

Let me get this straight. Someone is complaining about the f-word being used in a comic largely composed of mocking and demeaning religion. Don’t get me wrong, I love J&M and I think religion really needs some mocking in our society. I am not being critical of the comic in the slightest. My point is that if the author really cared about offending fragile sensibilities, he/she/it would not have made this comic in the first place. I think someone having such a thin skin about language while having no problem when the comic poking fun at people who have a thin skin about religion seems pretty hypocritical to me.

I find it funny when people try to use “freedom of speech” in a manner that implies only the first speech gets it – they don’t seem to realize that just because you’re free and able to say a thing not only doesn’t mean you should say it, but more, it doesn’t mean that others do not get to react negatively to it or you for saying it.
