Wasn’t Shiva [as Kali] the “Great Destroyer”?. They may be, unintentionally, onto something.

I’d feel better if this cover photo were a Photoshop. Alas, it looks authentic. Who was the photographer, Richard Avedon?

You don’t ask him to resign, Americans have to finally get a freaking clue and demand that this dangerous maniac be removed. If enough people demand it, he will be gone. Today’s Americans are like sheep.

“Shiva is the destroyer of the universe (as Hindus believe Brahma created the universe). Shiva is simply Satan by another name, although even many Hindus do not realize it.”

I wonder if the goofs at Newweek realize it?

Interesting. That's not only Shiva the Destroyer, that's Shiva depicted as Nataraja, in the act of destruction of the universe.

Well, kudos to Newsweek for a most apt depiction, although I rather doubt it's the one they intended.

"The job is just too tough and not even a God can handle it."

I don't have time to do the FReasearch, but didn't the MSM say the same thing about the Presidency when the Former Worst President was in office?

“Sorry, Shiva, but on November 2nd you got stomped by Ganesh.”

I’ll drink a Chutney Squishee to that!

Avedon is dead so Newsweak would say "YES!"

Obama is known to carry a figure of Shiva around in his pocket. The monkey god, Hanuman, shown earlier in this thread, is one representation of Shiva.

He must not read the 10 Comandments. In there he will find a prohibition on worshipping false idols. He will also find a prohibition on stealing AND on coveting thy neighbor’s property.

Redistribution is theft. Class envy is a sin.
