Uncommon Commentary #141
The cover of the latest issue of Newsweek calls Emperor Nerobama
"God of All Things" and depicts him with extra arms, in imitation of
the Indian idol Shiva. The subtitle of
the illustration reads "Why the Modern Presidency May be [sic; "b" should be
capitalized] too [sic; see previous "sic"] Much for One Person to
Handle," but is there unintended significance in the fact that Shiva's rôle in
Hindu cycles of creation is that of destroyer
of the world?
