What they're saying...
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
...a philosophical confrère.
Jerry Coyne
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
...wonderfully brilliant and witty.
Miranda Celeste Hale
Too good for words.
Maryam Namazie
The Eric and Ernie of monotheism.
Tom Holland
The most impious double act since Sodom and Gomorrah.
Andrew Copson, Chief Executive, BHA
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
Jesus & Mo is my go to example of how to do tasteful, beautiful religious satire.
Eiynah, Polite Conversations
...humor is humor and this cartoonist doesn't have it. Karl Giberson

Where’s my irony meter when I need it…
SPOING!?!?! There it goes
Hmmmm, Mo’s looking very sexy today
This is my favourite of all time: http://www.jesusandmo.net/2009/09/30/hoist/
So did they get rid of irony meters once and for all? Good, life should be quieter for them now.
Here is a few favorites of mine:
jesusandmo.net/2008/12/17/edge/

jesusandmo.net/2008/01/07/hills/
“Irish” is one of my favorites.
http://www.jesusandmo.net/2009/07/24/irish/
The 1st & most entertaining J&M I ever read:
http://www.jesusandmo.net/2006/01/26/ball/
The perfect J&M mix: Mo’s image controversy, the perfect prophet fallacy, profanity, & the shriveled nut (must have been in the pool).
As always, keep up the excellent work Author.
I believe new readers should know the truth about Easter: http://www.jesusandmo.net/2009/03/27/eggs/
Of course, they should also learn to use the irony meter: http://www.jesusandmo.net/2008/12/02/irony/
And let’s not forget poor Mo:
http://www.jesusandmo.net/2010/02/12/roses/
My vote: Poor
http://www.jesusandmo.net/2009/10/13/poor/
To be fair, there’s a lot of left wingers who spend their day protesting government this and government that – all while collecting either welfare or unemployment insurance.
Still, I hold a fantasy that my comment on an earlier J/M cartoon about wearing special clothes to indicate modesty is in fact bragging or being prideful about it, may have had a tiny impact in creating this cartoon.
It’s a fantasy, but I can dream
For what its worth….
http://www.jesusandmo.net/?s=stigmata&key=transcript
My vote is for http://www.jesusandmo.net/2009/01/30/equal/
I’m a long-time lurker, and I have to say that http://www.jesusandmo.net/2009/03/18/aids was by far the funniest thing I’ve read in years.
My all time favourite
http://www.jesusandmo.net/2006/03/29/faith/
I also love this one
http://www.jesusandmo.net/2007/09/25/clay/
even if it was nicked from Viz
It’s so hard to choose (I have spent hours just browsing through these strips and giggling)…this is one that encapsulates why I so love J&M: http://www.jesusandmo.net/2007/04/19/lack/
there just too many excellent ones to pick a favorite
Will barmaid serve Mo when she can not tell if he is of an age to drink in licenced premises?
I think this is one of my all time favourites…
http://www.jesusandmo.net/2008/02/15/plot/
@Author: “Flaunting your modesty”. That is genius. Is that an original line to you?- I want to quote it in a paper and want to get the attribution correct.
My favourite Jesus and Mo? Easy- Crowd:
http://www.jesusandmo.net/2009/12/08/crowd/
Fire and Hell!

http://www.jesusandmo.net/2006/08/23/hell/
Hey, Butterflies and Wheels has an article that touches on this point. I love the bit where the author (Edmund Standing) says that non-Muslim Blair believes Islam to be a religion of tolerance and peace, but that imams need hundreds of thousands of pounds from the taxpayer to reach the same conclusion.

“To be fair, there’s a lot of left wingers who spend their day protesting government this and government that – all while collecting either welfare or unemployment insurance.”
Teabaggers aren’t left-wing, sorry.
@Daoloth – Thanks. I didn’t consciously copy it, but I’d be surprised if nobody had said it before.
There are so many good ones that it’s very hard to pick a favourite, but http://www.jesusandmo.net/2009/07/30/yours/ is probably the one I come back to most often. Either that or any of the ones I mention here: http://www.boxturtlebulletin.com/2009/01/20/8232#comment-31223.
TRiG.
I was just reminded of this classic, when I saw the Niemöller-poem elsewhere:
http://www.jesusandmo.net/2007/04/26/bigot/
This one cracked me up. http://www.jesusandmo.net/2008/07/page/4/
Hmm, this is turning into a Jesus & Mo clip show…
Absolute favorites:

Easy!

@Nina – Nice generalization. Sorta like all right wingers are Nazis, Tea Baggers, and don’t have the “Christian Values” they claim to have 😛
@Nina & Izzy. Indulge an old lady here.
By “tea-bagging”, do you mean what I think you think you mean (e.g. something to do with Sarah Palin and Tax) or do you mean what I thought you meant but, presumably must be mistaken in (i.e. the application of testicles to mouths).
Old age brings many confusions.
@ Nibien – I am not sure how you read my post to think I was referring to teabaggers – I know the political protestor kind is right wing – although the people do do the sex version can be any political stripe.
@Izzy – thanks, I am a centralist myself, but I see the characterizations of both sides, and neither side can claim a moral high ground over the other
well, I guess they can if they skew that moral measure to what they think morals is.
the only difference I see between the left and the right is that the left wants to control your public behaviour and the right your private behaviour
hmmmm, I think that’s my next blog post.
October 21, 2008, best ever.
If atheists are so smart, how did they get surrounded by idiots?
Just change the link at the top that says “Archives” to “Best Of”, and you’re done.
@Nassar Ben Houdja
sheer numbers – they out bred us
@Daoloth
the original teabagging was the testical thing – see most any Sex in the City episode
but the right wing group is a tax revolt, so they think that they are referencing the boston tea party – they also have a lot of overlap with the “birthers” who refuse to accept that Obama was born American.
so, not the brightest bulbs in the bunch
@Nina. So, let me be clear- Sarah Palin with an, ahem, straight-face, is referring to herself as a “teabagger”? Oh boy- I need to get to more political rallies. They sound fun. Many thanks.
@Nina. I was right! They are fun.

Anyway, my favorites are (by name): mass, crowd, money, dummy, park, bus, pill, greek, ugh
Re-sending, hopefull still.
