In India, they've organized an 11 Day Prayer Marathon to pray for the success of Obama in the upcoming elections. They're not doing that for McCain (at least not yet) and Obama is going to get a 15kg, 21 inch gold idol of Hindu deity of Hanuman.
This is awesome. Prayer is always good, but getting a Hanuman Idol? I'm kinda jealous. Not only is Hindu religious art quite striking to look at, but I like the basic Hindu notion (at least in my meager understanding) of there being multiple aspects of a single deity. It strikes me a sensible one- after all, everyone can see things from different points of view.
