Watching the last hour of On the Waterfront this morning I was struck by the thought that Marlon Brando’s character of Terry Malloy in fiction is Elia Kazan in real life.
A man who saw evil and was willing to talk and because of this was and still is hated by those who supported and still either support or venerate that same evil. The only question is when people will actually acknowledge it.
I think things like these are little clues to us in life.
Like the removal of Britiannia from circulating British coins it is a symbol of British ideals, liberty and identity. Now it will only be on Bullion. Something to be locked away as a memory. And what have seen happening in England? The rights of Englishman fading away. Sharia law growing.
Or remember this Danial Webster quote:
“Men hang out their signs indicative of their respective trades; shoemakers hang out a gigantic shoe; jewelers a monster watch, and the dentist hangs out a gold tooth; but in the mountains of New Hampshire, God Almighty has hung out a sign to show that there He makes men.”
On May 3rd 2003 the Old Man of the Mountain collapsed. God removed his shingle. And the very next month New Hampshire Episcopal elected Gene Robinson Bishop of the Diocese of New Hampshire.
The most graphic i can think of it Lady Diana’s death. The media fawned all over it, declared her a secular saint and turned it into an international day or morning. Then mother Theresa dies the same week as Mike Barnicle put it “A tap on the shoulder from God.” and the media was shamed into covering the Funeral live.
Gotta love indirect proofs.
