How could it NOT be arson?

Now much stuff do you think was inside that church that could produce all those flames emanating from everywhere?

There has to be a lot of ancient wood decorations there. Old wood burns faster than new wood. Consider the altar itself. Then there's pews, wooden doors... bibles... cloth...incense... candles.... matches... clothing... paintings... maybe even rugs and flags.

A lot can burn inside a stone church.
