It just occurred to me that the author may view the Ring as the religious fanaticism of the Islamonazis but he is too P.C. to spell it out.

Nope. The ring symbolizes nothing. There is no allegory. That was the whole point of my article. Any secondary meanings derived from the story (like the whole power issue that has sparked a lot of the debate in this thread) are purely rhetorical exercises on our part.
As for political correctness, f--- it!
