Red is worn by Cardinals, while black with different colored sashes are worn by priests and bishops.

That said, I think this conference is going to be very important, and may ground the lunatic in the airplane.

How are they going to do that? He doesn’t have to listen to them.

Priests do not wear sashes. Maybe you are thinking of a stole? Bishops wear a purple sash, harkening back in European history to their status as princes. Priests, you’re right, they normally wear black, and in extremely hot climates pale colors are worn. Priests do not wear a pectorsl cross (big error in movies); all types of bishops do.
