Perhaps the Orange whopper was correct when he said Europe was a little bit broke? We allow religious lunacy to proliferate far too easily in blighty these days…It will all end very nastily indeed if devisive lunacy is allowed to defend itself with de-facto blasphemy laws….
Someone was telling me this afternoon that,here in Portugal, instructors etc. will make fun of you when you make a mistake – not mean, but just making fun. Very different from back home. Because back home, frankly, too often we really are mean, and “just making fun” is a lie.
These religion discrimination rules are inevitable, when a liberal western society is trying to deal with racism that can be proxied with religion. When there are propagandists push youtube videos etc. about the horrors of middle eastern / north African cultures, that are overrunning fair Europe, and it’s hard to even nail down exactly what the racial quotient is there but Islam is a convenient ID.
And honestly at a casual glance I don’t see anything here that really prevents us from pointing out what a poisonous religion Islam is. It was a definition, not a law, and the definition seems reasonably careful to leave you room to say what you want about the religion.
Here in Blighty we are to have teachers trained to identify Mysogyny? I would prefer for teachers to engage with children and point out that violence against anybody regardless of sex, age , race, hair colour , body shape yadda yadda yadda. It will be interesting how they reconcile modern anti mysogyny zeitgeist with holy books full of mysogynistic nonsense?
Over the Xmas 2025 period please try and keep in mind that the persons who scribbled all the holy texts would regard the modern electric kettle as a miracle.
Well, here it is, Xmas eve, and I have in mind the Tucker Telephone, which would have been considered miraculous by the Inquisition. It was banned in the USA in the sixties, but yet another Tucker was to become a scourge on our country, even to this day.
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
Some things are indeed obvious.
All religions are equal but some religions are more equal than others.

those de-facto blasphemy laws
are the effect following the cause
for when you are blasphemous
unless it’s unanimous
it requires an arbitration clause

Electric Kettle? Primitive I have a hot tap, it is the 21st century now…🤣
