Good luck: today’s Jesus and Mo strip, called “wins”, has a caption with a link:
Maybe they need to try the Discovery Institute?
I can’t resist saying that religion has never revealed an empirical fact that science alone couldn’t find, despite God having many opportunities to do so. For example, Scripture could have said (assuming it was the word of God): “Thou shalt wash thy hands after a poo lest tiny animals you cannot see will make you sick.” For more such failures, read Carl Sagan’s The Varieties of Scientific Experience (chapter 6), a must-read.
Sad that the artist had to link to the DI, for it gives them the clicks they love. 
Come on, Pakistan, ban me again—I dare you!
I find it interesting that the part where Mo says “science always wins” is strongly reminiscent of this quote :
“In science, truth always wins.”
… which is an important quote given that, as best I can tell, Max Perutz said it.
If any quote-sleuths out there feel like nailing it down, have fun – but I found it on Goodreads and a book (perhaps Max Perutz and The Secret Of Life, or another one… can’t recall the name…) which I now do not have nearby.
“I can’t resist saying that religion has never revealed an empirical fact that science alone couldn’t find, despite God having many opportunities to do so. For example, ‘Thou shalt wash thy hands after a poo lest tiny animals you cannot see will make you sick.'”
In fact, Jesus actually belittles the Pharisees for washing their hands! Matthew 15:1-20.
Aha! I always suspected that Peter Hegseth, one of the doofi on the Fox & Friends morning couch is a Pharisee.
They’re all philistines.
Not only do many Republicans spurn science, 59% of Republicans now believe that college is bad for America – https://reason.com/2019/08/19/pew-survey-republicans-college-campus-safe-spaces/
Simple: More ignorant people=more religious people and more Trump supporters.
Amen!

On the other hand, imagine the look of disgust on the faces of their web master (deliberate use of gender-specific form) every time they read “Referrer : https://www.jesusandmo.net/*” in the logs.
It is more fun than pulling the wings off flies, and ethically more defensible.
Ignaz Semmelweiss empirically discovered the blessings of washing hands in preventing puerperal fever. He did not know about microbes, just empirical observation (and he was basically murdered for it). Only a decade or two later Pasteur vindicated him.
No, it was not religion that thought him that, just pure and sharp observation, and drawing correct conclusions.
‘religion has never revealed an empirical fact that science alone couldn’t find’ is very true, but then the empirical facts revealed by religion gives us a, how shall we say, lean harvest? I’d add.
Shouldn’t it be, lest tiny animals you cannot see will make sick the next person you shake or hold hands with? Is readmitting one’s own microfauna a health risk?
At least they admit they’ve always been defeated by science. That’s at least a start.
Ref to and thanks for comments 2 & 6 – for a long while contra the great utility of the Bible I’ve noted that it doesn’t even provide the recipe for soap.
Also a long while ago I saw a print ad, probably in Chemical & Engineering News, to the effect that the soapmakers art was lost during the Middle Ages, and even royalty could only afford a bath once a month. I can’t remember what the ad was touting, what company it was from, nor have I ever been able to track any further ref to that, just in case anyone has anything to add to that.
