Jesus and Mo is a wickedly satiric comic strip, which regularly mocks the absurdity of claims to moral superiority fundamentalist religious leaders rely on to keep their followers...um...er...following.
The strip below carries an additional revelatory payload - religious and political leaders are cut from the same cloth.
By showing that both groups employ the same modus operandi, the strip explodes the oft-stated claim that religion and politics don't mix. That position denotes a failure to recognize a simple reality. Conflict is to be expected whenever two different tribes of politicians fight over the same turf - that is, the hearts, minds, and most importantly, the bank accounts of the general public.
