Eric: No wonder that two of the world's Mesopotamian sky
god religions are associated with guys named "Mo."

Thank you so much. I never thought of this. Great laugh. Sadly, none of these religions provide very much humor or joy.

Glad that's settled.

Also the formulation "[X] outrages Muslims" has long been laughable.

*  Soy protein shake outrages Muslims.

*  Paris Hilton outrages Muslims.

*  Rational inquiry outrages Muslims.

*  Late Beethoven string quartet outrages Muslims.

*  Radio telescope outrages Muslims.

*  "Every conservation law being a law of symmetry" outrages Muslims.

*  Hilary Putnam outrages Muslims.

*  Poorly defined group of non-outraged Muslims outrages Muslims.

No wonder that two of the world's Mesopotamian sky god religions are associated with guys named "Mo."
