The Jesus and Mo artist sent out a Friday Flashback cartoon from 14 years ago. The strip is called “judge”. And yes, I’ve read the Qur’an, but since it was in translation, I can be accused of not appreciating its beauty. All I can say is that it’s full of the usual scary religious palaver, including murder, damnation of apostates and nonbelievers, wife-beating, and the like. It goes down better with a Guinness, though!
As always, the sassy barmaid gets the better of Mo.
Thanks for that! One of the best. Pithy, precise, and universal. Would that all the “good books” had more editorial guidance outside the divine.
Great comeback by the barmaid. I wish I was as quick on my feet.
Of course, if the barmaid had read it all and still had a negative review, Mo would attribute it to Islamophobia.
My experience of the Qur’an was the same as the barmaid’s. I gave up about 3/4 of the way through, for precisely her reasons. If you managed to finish it I admire your perseverance, though I don’t think it would have changed my opinion of it if I had!
Excellent!
That’s definitely one of the best!
An almighty supreme being communicates in medevial arabic a repetitious, boring, violent, illogical message the beauty of which is part of its internal proof, but only in the original. I’m convinced.
