Everything we think we know about Mutiny on the Bounty is a lie! 3 Hollywood movies distorted the truth. The 1850 novel, The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a great work of art nourishing our higher selves with serious thoughts about good and evil, marriage and morality, hypocrisy and nobility, the inevitability of consequences and yes, adultery. The 1995 movie The Scarlet Letter starring Demi Moore has as much to do with the book as the movie Free Willy has to do with Moby Dick, another great American novel written by Herman Melville at the same time as The Scarlet Letter. And while we’re on the topic of books and animals, I tell you something you don’t know about The Life of Pi. Yes, it was the mass adoption of the birth control pill and it was a SCOTUS decision that for the first time in US history declared that saying a prayer in public schools was against the law. This was the dangerous prayer that Steve Engel and his fellow leftists got the court to declare illegal: “Almighty God, we acknowledge our dependence upon Thee, and we beg Thy blessings upon us, our parents, our teachers and our country.”
