Wrath Over a Hindu God

Folklore has it that elephants never forget, and Paul Courtright has
reason to believe it. A professor of religion at Emory University, he
immersed himself in the story of Ganesha, the beloved Hindu god with
the head of an elephant. Detecting provocative Oedipal overtones in
Ganesha's story -- and phallic symbolism in his trunk -- he wrote a
book setting out his theories in 1985.

I have no problem in someone writing junk abt. ganesha or any other
god, for that matter, if the people who scream "academic freedom" can
also digest same sort of trash about, say, Jesus or Muhammed.
