Bringing this discussion from the General thread. It's about the front page of The Economist, The World in 2017.
See pic.
My thoughts:
-
I would like to hear what you guys think of my observation that the man in the magician card looks like Moses with the clothes and the stick. Remember that Moses was the one who exposed the pharaos magicians and showed that their tricks were just that, tricks.

And also this about the tower card:
Communists (who are atheists) to the left, catholics (since they hold a crucifix and not just a cross) to the right. In the middle is the catholic church. Church because it has a cross on it and catholic because it has a paper on the door just like martin luther put on the door of the church, which was catholic at the time. The church is shattered by the lightning. So i see it as the destruction of the catholic church.
What do you think of this?
