I was born in a village at the granite coast of northern Bohuslän in Sweden. During the late 1930’s, the Third Reich had placed large orders of granite stone to be delivered to Germany to make large monuments as a tribute to the Fuehrer Adolf Hitler after he had won the war and established the thousand year Third Reich. Even 1950 the stones were not delivered, neither was the war won.
And so began the indoctrination into Hitlerjugend.
But Hitler was by no means alone. Many build monuments to themselves while still alive.
And many come from a more humble beginning. This is a picture of Plains, Georgia, the home town of President Jimmy Carter. It used to be called Plain of Dura, but after the railroad was built the name was shorted to Plains.
Back to the Bible. 
And all the people obeyed, except Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.
