Years and years ago I promised never to ask God for anything like money, cars, success, love, and all the usual crap people pray for. I pray for God now. I pray that people will leave him alone, give him a break, stop blaming him for everything… They say God is dead, so I pray that he get well soon. I pray FOR God, not at him. I figure I can take care of all the other stuff on my own. Miracles really aren’t called for, for much of what I do.
Don’t you get it? Allah makes the miracle by giving the barmaid extra tickets. People nowadays expect miracles to happen, and 2 tickets to come from the sky together with divine light or something, so that’s why there are so many atheists…
“Years ago we answered them all, but years ago there was less people. And people prayed for something simple then: to light a fire, to catch a yak. Nowadays we get people praying for hockey teams, people praying for longer fingernails — we just can’t keep up with it.”
Beautiful comic – a great re-telling of the old joke:
“A priest is hanging off a cliff by his fingertips, and a walker approaches and says ‘let me help’ and the priest says ‘No God will save me!’…
(repeat for a boat and helicopter)
…”the priest falls to his death and says to god ‘why didn’t you save me?’ and god says ‘you ungrateful bastard! I sent a walker, a boat and a helicopter…’ “
“Please let me win in Eurojackpot, so that I could live the end of my life in peace.”
Comes next friday and he doesn’t win. So he prays again. Next friday, no dice. The same happens third time he speaks his mind to Jahveh:
“Why haven’t you granted my meager wish. Why have you granted the win to some yokels who only drink the money insted to me who would put it in your favor?”
Jahveh answers: “You could buy a ticket, you know.”
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

wahahahahaha!
now THAT’s divine intervention! I love how people pray when things don’t happen their way.

I worship this comic. It may be my favorite ever.
fantastic!
carolita: people blame god for everything? from where i stand, he gets credit for the good and excused for the bad b/c of his mysterious ways.
its all a trick we play on ourselves.

Nice comic:)
A hilariously, knee-slappingly true comic.

Thanks, I just sprayed beer out my nose..
This is great, I’ve been going through your archives for a couple of days now, it’s all good.
One of the best strips ever!
@Carolita: so you’re saying that even an omnipotent deity needs a little help now and then?
Old comic, but I must add it made me laugh out loud.
Old devout jew is praying to Jahveh:
“Please let me win in Eurojackpot, so that I could live the end of my life in peace.”
Comes next friday and he doesn’t win. So he prays again. Next friday, no dice. The same happens third time he speaks his mind to Jahveh:
