Weird News: Russian Citizen Requests Exorcism for Mayor
Thursday, July 22, 2010
A Russian's desire for her town's mayor to undergo exorcism is an especially bizarre intersection of politics and the supernatural. Dismiss her as eccentric, if you must. You wouldn't be wrong. But don't expect this to be an isolated incident. The economic hard times means a global rise in "off with their heads!" sentiment, which means a significant minority may start seeing their own rulers as demon employed miscreants.
