Like Pink Floyd’s The Wall, the Berlin Wall and the Great Wall of China, large walls often become symbols of authoritarian oppression.

Trump is pushing through his campaign promise to build a wall on the U.S./Mexico border and guess who’s paying for it? You are!

   A little correction, Germany is not a Protestant Country

   Roman Catholic Church in Germany: 24,740,380 or 30.8% of the German population;
   Evangelical Church in Germany: 24,328,100 or 30.3% of the German population;
   Other, atheist or not specified: 31,151,210 or 38.8% of the German population.

     Sorry about that. I meant to say they those that lived south of the former Roman occupied territories were predominately Catholic.
