Notre Dame burns down

Recommended Posts

Less than a week after the Central World fire, an even more devastating blaze on the other side of the world. Truly heartbreaking.

Thousands of Parisians have watched in horror from behind police cordons as a ferocious blaze devastated the landmark Notre Dame Cathedral, destroying its spire and spreading to the historic bell towers.

Firefighters battled to contain the fire, which began at 5.50pm local time (16.50 GMT) on Monday, with police saying it began accidentally and may be linked to building work at the cathedral. The 850-year-old gothic masterpiece had been undergoing restoration work to help it better withstand the tests of time.

“Everything is burning,” André Finot, a spokesman for the cathedral, told French media. “Nothing will remain from the frame.”

Where was the Catholic God when they needed him?

It is evidently clear that the true God is favouring the companies tasked with rebuilding, renovating, and refurbishing the badly damaged structures before welcoming the resident gargoyles to their favourite perches.

Since neither of your posts represent wit or wisdom, I suggest you ask yourself if you really want to travel further down the road of posting yet more religiously intolerant remarks.

Although a predominantly Buddhist nation, Thailand welcomes those of all religious beliefs.

When you target one particular faith for your volatile remarks, you lower yourself--and the forum--below that standards of acceptance and inclusiveness, the very trademarks of a gay-oriented website like this
