“Perhaps most controversial is a proposal in Domus, the architecture magazine, by Tom Wilkinson, for the fallen spire to be replaced with an Islamic minaret, to memorialise Algerians who protested the French government in the 1960s.
“These victims of the state could be memorialised by replacing [the spire] with – why not? – a graceful minaret,” Wilkinson insisted.
I say put up a mini rollercoaster on the roof. It would be less sacrilegious than other suggestions I’ve heard.
From my understanding the surrounding communities are 100% Muslim so a minaret would actually serve the community...
Notre Dame is owned by the French State / Ministry of Culture
Why does anything think “rebuilding” of Notre Dame will be immune from politics and parasitic Neo-marxism?
It would not surprise me if the cathedral is rebuilt as a Mosque and offered to the Mohammedans.
Now that it's out there, the French will face immense pressure to honor all religions (but really meaning Islam) with their reconstructions. I find it quite possible that they will surrender to the pressure with high sounding words and thus forever besmirch a treasure of human achievement. If there is ever a minaret placed on it, the Mulsims will 100% claim it as their own and start making demands that offensive relics (human remains) be removed, art covered up, etc. It's how they roll.
