Sheep Detectives
Totally my interpretation not sure if others agree. But I thought it was also a subtextual allegory that could be used to explain the dangerous path that the Christian church has followed in contemporary times.
Spoilers:
>!The symbolism of losing your shepherd and having to find the solution to the problem by thinking critically while avoiding the “wolves in sheeps clothing” like the Shepherd who raises their lambs for slaughter. And the plot device that the flock can force themselves to “forget” their issues and mistakes without properly understanding and changing course. Also, the use of the “winter lamb” or “black sheep”. The idea of excommunicating members of the church based on their falsely perceived “sins”. Reminds me of the issues in the white evangelical Southern church.!<
I cant help but view it through the lens of current pastors preaching hatred and division of communities, making political points from the pulpit.
What are your thoughts?
