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

I don’t know how you do it, Author, they just keep coming.
surely there is a spoing in the offing here?
Oh, I’m sure there’s a whole bunch of reasons “why we are superior to them”.
Also us atheists have no reason at all to behave like decent people, which is why every murderer ever has been an atheist, and every atheist ever is a murderer.
RavenBlack,
Stop…. You’re (spoing) killing me!
Smart!… ¿is Mo asking the barmaid… or us?… ¿Are we the barmaid?… Damm if im the barmaid i should look hotter!
ROTFLMAO!!
Plus, of course, the efforts to have Atheism classified as a form of mental illness…
[…] Link. […]
In their arrogance, they believe that everything in existence was created for their benefit.
They believe that a being with infinite capabilities loves them like a father and watches their every action while listening to their every thought.
Geocentrism; the Chosen People; prayer; there are so many ways in which their arrogance has been expressed.
It’s hard being humble when you have been granted dominion over all life, the planet and all of the universe.
I’d laugh, but if I started, I might not be able to stop.
Jesus in Momite…

Personally I can’t see him but I can just make out the Barmaid
This was my favorite “Face of Jesus”
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/social/humour/122369/1/Jesus-this-is-way-too-fun-can-you-see-him
Johnnie, I don’t think it’s all arrogance…I think they are afraid. They are cowards: They start to ask questions about the world, and when they find an answer they don’t like (or they don’t know), they just make up a nicer one.
for example: Im facing certain death…what can I do?
real answer: If its certain, there is nothing you can do
Their answer: Pray, pray and pray, if you have enough faith, God will save you
p.s: I can’t believe that stupid “image on marmite” made the BBC!!! I mean comeon, thousands of people starve to death in Africa and all over the world, and Jesus decides to bring confort by appearing in a frikin lid! suuure, thats a miracle!!!
You want me to believe??? Give me world peace, no hunger and a new tv!!!
no tv, no deal
Truly a recipe for mental illness: “I am humble, wretched, unworthy, base – a mere bug in the great panoply of existence, oh and by the way I’m on first-name terms with the creator of the universe and he constructed an entire universe for me”.
They’re mad, I tell you, mad.
*SPOING*
God’s a genius…he invented the spherical madhouse…
mateo – so what is a spherical madhouse? It sounds fun
One day I will find this pub and marry that barmaid.
Firefox,
May I suggest you approach the author to officiate? My first thought was J or Mo, but given that they don’t exist, that might prove impractical.
grouchy-one: Earth is the spherical madhouse…(I took the term from Quino, an argenitinian comic writer – very famous in spanish speaking regions – it was part of a bigger joke, but I can’t remember it… ). I was just expanding on the idea thar religion is for mentally unstable pepole.
Firefox: The barmaid has defined herself as a “disembodied voice”… Im not sure marrying her is such a good idea.
Why ya gotta burst my bubble?
😛
hehe, you can marry her if you want, Im just warning you: No body, no action
mateo-argentino,
I’ll thank you not to speak of my ex-wife.
Actually, either one of them.
Of course, Mateo it seems obvious now – It was right under my nose, I was sitting on it all the time.
Only question is why does it seem to be the epicentre here?
OK, author, tis time for a “SPOING” t-shirt to be made.
FireFox,
For 10% of your income for the rest of your life, I will arrange that after you die, you get to be with the barmaid for eternity. If you also bequeath your estate to me, I will intervene for you to ensure that you actually enjoy your eternity.

haha, good one johnnie!
First, hats off to Author. My Internet Explorer was blocking J&M. No link was working. Author advised I try Foxfire. Now I’m free again!
Also hats off to Author again for another keeper.
Arrogance and superiority? Humanists? I recently went to Beliefnet to seek the average Christian’s defense of Anselmian Theism. The only replies I received were arrogantly preachy, condescending and obfuscating. No one would even touch the question.
I’m going to beam out, as there seems to be no intelligent life there.
Mr. Canuck, as soon as my Nigerian money hits the bank, I’ll be sending a check.
Hobbes is not the only reader to have reported problems with IE, and I am baffled. This site was not viewable and a hard refresh did not seem to help – “Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage”.
Can anyone knowledgeable about these things shed any light?
Can’t say I’ve noticed much – I very rarely use IE any more. However a quick search brought up brought up this page…
http://www.techsupportforum.com/microsoft-support/internet-explorer-forum/145228-ie-errors-page-loading-problems.html
It has a few suggestions on ways to fix or work around the problem
I’ve had problems accessing J&M using IE for about a week. At work where I access via a large a network it loads but the pages automatically constantly refresh. (You can stop it using the ‘STOP’ page load button). I’m glad it’s not just my PC which is screwed up, but I don’t know what’s causing it. I’m in Firefox now and it seems fine.
(Not that I access J&M at work of course. Slip of the tongue).
I just tried it my IE and it works fine. I am running version 7 I believe. IE is not my normal browser of course, but it opened this page just fine on my end. Perhaps some windows updates on the user end?
May I also suggest a java update on the user end. You may even be surprised and find one awaiting your approval down in your taskbar.
The bloated virus magnet Internet Explorer (i.e. I.E) is from Microsoft,
no good shall ever come from this earthly Hell.
Aha – I see it. Cheers Firefox. I don’t remember why I went back to IE – I will try to stick with your namesake from now on.
When Mozilla released that browser, I thought hey, someone is finally recognizing my awesomeness….’bout damn time, too. 😛
Mine wasn’t loading at work but was ok at home. Both on IE7. I checked for IE updates on the microsoft site and updated them. It’s working fine now.
“One day I will find this pub and marry that barmaid…For 10% of your income for the rest of your life, I will arrange that after you die, you get to be with the barmaid for eternity.”
It’s actually up to the barmaid, and she has no interest in marrying any of you. She also wishes you would stop driveling about how hot she may or may not be. She has better things to do than to be your wet dream. You don’t even get that about her, yet you think you want to marry her. Oy gevalt.
You do realise this is a patriarchy I’m making fun of, don’t you Ophelia? Besides, the arrangement I was offering would be in Heaven, where there is no sex because everything is pure and bodiless. Soulmates only.
If you too would like to spend eternity in witty intellectual repartee with the lady, you know my terms. Should she not find you amusing, there’s always the money back guarantee, so what have you got to lose?
ps Firefox, the barmaid told me she much prefers browsing with you.
I am more liberated. I do not presume to announce an intention to marry the barmaid. I respect her individuality. I would so have sex with her, though.
Er, Ophelia, how can the barmaid be anyone’s wet dream when only J&M know what she looks like? FireFox is obviously in love with Barmaid’s beautiful mind.
Exactly.
heeeheeeheeheeehee!
“how can the barmaid be anyone’s wet dream when only J&M know what she looks like?”
I have no idea! Yet there’s a lot of stupid locker room chat here about how hot she is. It’s a tiny bit point-missing.
I hate to be the one to break it to you, Ophelia, but even though atheists don’t have God telling them how terribly, terribly naughty sex is, they still think about it a lot.
Hmmm… or is that just me?
Oh get an inflatable doll for fuck’s sake. Thinking about sex all the time doesn’t mean men having to think of all females in terms of how hot they are or in terms of possessions for men to pass back and forth.
It’s all the same crap. It’s either the burqa or ‘she’s so hot!’ No room for women to be just human.
The barmaid thinks you should all grow the hell up.
Well, obviously we were speaking of a character in a comic strip, Ophelia. I assure you that my crush on this character sight unseen must at least suggest a good measure of non-objectivity of women on my part, however mythical she may be. Would you not agree?
Would it not also be safe to assume that my affection for intelligent women would automatically eliminate my chances for winning her affections if I were to objectify her?
Is the chip on your shoulder beginning to chafe?
Is not a chip, is a two by four! Does not chafe; builds muscle.
I am with Ophelia on growing weary (now fussed) of the wet-dream projections onto poor Barmaid. I’m convinced she’s a younger iteration of the “freshen yer drink, guv’ner?” character on The Simpsons.
We’re likely all too used of our men chasing fantasies and ignoring the real-life women all about them.
