if you don't care about the history and culture contained within and around the Notre Dame Cathedral, I can't imagine you caring much about some random European dying during the actual event.

I think, a part of all of us died yesterday gentlemen. Grieve how you may.

I'm kind of with OTPT on this one. They will come together and spend millions to restore it. It will be a national pride thing. Good for them. meanwhile FUCKING WALRUSES ARE FALLING OFF FUCKING CLIFFS GUYS.

I will say this. If any American feels like donating money for church restoration this week, how about the three in Arkansas that the nazi burnt to the ground.

Yeah, the Catholic church has mountains of money. They should be (and should have been) paying for the entire rebuild out of petty cash.

I am thankful nobody was killed.. I did hear (I believe) that one firefighter may have been injured pretty badly.

Please remember OTPT’s idea of arts and culture is the Lawn Tractor and Tobacoo Museum in Battle Creek. He has an annual pass.

Come on, even in your "I'm too cool to care" millenialness, you should be able to appreciate and understand the tremendous historical significance of this structure that stretches beyond religion. This is isn't some corner Baptist church that was built in 2008.

I mean, Stonehenge is a religious structure, too, but if someone went all Clark Griswold on it, that would be a horrible shame, too.

Listen, several Internet experts who have no experience fighting fires have said otherwise. They are right.
