Remembrance

An interesting thought came across me tonight. I was reading into the idea of "anti-kingdom" and thoughts about some of the things we honor...well is it actually honorable?

Monuments such as the great pyramids...built by slaves that were tortured, beaten, maimed, and slaughtered if they didn't get their work done. If they didn't meet their quota set by the higher powers. Should we be honoring these monuments?

Clearly they are amazing feats by humans but what purpose did their spilled blood serve? The Pharaohs made these pyramids as a home for their "after-life" and to leave a power feat for others to remember by...but do we want to remember that?

I guess it's a way of remembrance for those who died...and not really a honor for the Pharaoh.
