Holy Week terrorism?

I visited that beautiful Cathedral in 1960, when I was stationed in Germany. There were actually still French Catholics that went to daily Mass back then.

Today, in France, like the US, Catholics are in a rapid state of decline. It's too hard to believe that some being is greater than my iphone {if I had one}.

No one will be shocked when the cause of the fire is stated.

“Likely due to renovation.”

What was the nationality/religion of the workmen?

Considering that scores of French churches have been damaged by islamic radicals in recent weeks, one has to be pardoned for wondering...

They’re pushing the “renovation” theory so hard it’s obviously terrorism.

Well, that's my first guess as well.

I told the wife about it and she turned on FOX, where its the big live story. Shep had to get in that "anyone who is leading with conspiracy theories is way off base at this point." Please.

President Emmanuel Macron canceled an address to the nation that he had been due to give later on Monday evening. A presidential official said Macron was to go to the scene of the blaze.

Unless he is going to participate in the bucket brigade what good will he do?!

When we toured Paris (and the Cathedral ) in August 2015, they were celebrating Mass there.

Fox pushes propaganda just as much as the other channels. They just do it differently. Because they are the go to channel for conservatives, they
can get away with lying to your face. And you believe them. I’m unable to watch them much anymore.

The escapee ISIS murderers are trying to incite a religious war in Europe, now that they have more than a hundred thousand jihad members there and growing.

“We already do. My large christian church is armed to the teeth.”

Do an active shooter drill with the volunteers.

Simple things like where people should sit and when to shoot should be thought out.

Get on one side — so no cross fire, preferably back toward a piano or so other cover, just to give my church’s decided strategy.

Read between the lines and understand what they DONT tell you. Contrast with how much they push an opinion (“it’s the renovations “).

Fact is, they don’t know. Or they do know, but they want you to believe something different. And you swallowed that one

WHO didn’t think this was going to happen?

The question was when.

I thought we had a couple of more years.

muslims want less christian and western tourists in countries they’re trying to overtkae to comply with the commands of their pedophile prophet.

Look at acid tosses in London, 1200 since 2011. Driving cars into crowds of tourists. In Franc if you burn churches some will re-open as mosques. Burn famous churches fewer tourists.

This is dhimmi France.

IF there actually is a Muslim angle to this story what are the odds we will hear of it from Macron?

Yes, but over 180 years under construction. Did they have unions back then?
