The Scarlet and the Black – Metaphor Alert

January 20th, 2010, Promulgated by Gen

I have posted a new video on our YouTube channel. It is from a wonderful movie called “The Scarlet and the Black,” which stars Gregory Peck and Christopher Plummer. It is a story, a true story, about an Irish monsignor, i.e. Peck, hiding and shuttling allied P.O.W’s and Jews in and around the Vatican. It is an amazing film. I highly recommend it.

This is a scene which some among you have suggested is a perfect metaphor for our dealings here at Cleansing Fire. We straddle the border between safety and security for the sake of Truth.

I leave any further metaphor to you.

And, yes, I really do look like Gregory Peck. No, really. I do.
