Hopefully that title jumped out at you a little bit. And hopefully it's because you are thinking about what you know about the tyrant mentioned in the title, and not because you are desperately trying to figure out how to pronounce his name. For those of you who already know a good...
What do you think of when you hear the word “idol”? Do
you think of a little statue in somebody’s house that they bow down and
