I hope all the value signallers formed a queue outside their newsagents this morning and protested in the most po-faced tones, that the Sun had the headline 'Notre Doom' and that this was MOST inappropriate. well they have spent most of the morning protesting here. You can say to the hapless agent: " never mind the police lies over the Liverpool supporters of yesteryear - this pun is OUTRAGEOUS ! you should be banned!"
No they didnt - if you read this thread it is more about the posters and their dislikes and other little foibles and 50% about Notre Dame.
Hey does anyone do the Times? ( "Notre Dame Inferno", so it OK for even the most pious to buy and read it) . I am in the front page corner " Expert warns of dangers to Gothic Cathedral
and also I get a bit ( of copy that is - this is a family thread!) - inside ( inside the paper - shush you dirty boys! vets go and sit in your kennels!). "Firemen draw parallels with York". You read it all here last night - that is if anyone read the thread before giving me a good kick.
Does anyone here feel that kicking me is like clubbing a furry baby seal?

// anneasquith, //There it is........ a possible terrorist attack. This post should be removed . //
well I am on Nize side on this one - free speech for all. Others of course have made it clear that only pious themes on this thread should go unchallenged....
Oh Notre Dame - is it time to pick over the school-boy howlers ?
The steeple was nineteenth century and stuck on a-la-gothique. in 1850 by Lully zamaire or someone because it looked nice
the two old Rose windows have gone but not the one at the front ( er facade) which was .... nineteenth century
Ze couleurs of the windows have been lost, said one curator
That was family for "the gold in these old windows requires the urine from choirboys whose voices havent broken" - oo la la Madame!
any news on the choirstalls ? they were meant to be original and might have been fire wood....

the Catholic church is not poor, so it doesn't seem unreasonable for them to fund the rebuilding; individuals can help if they wish, and many have already done so.
I can't help wondering what would happen if it had been Britain. The Anglican church commissioners blew a lot of their money on bad property deals in the 1990s, though they recuperated some by selling off chunks of Mayfair a few years later. But I don't know if they could afford a complete rebuilding of Westminster Abbey.

Good job you are not a Mod, why should it be removed, there hasn't even been a full investigation carried out yet?
Even if it proved to be a retaliation terrorist attack, I doubt that the French authorities would broadcast it, because of the huge numbers of Muslims and the French people's attitude of taking to the streets in mass protests at the drop of a hat, there would be an almighty blood bath.

state funz cant....
dear dear - I was going for the three word sentence limit on AB or else posters start squawking
Macron ( the President that is!) cannot allocate state funds to the rebuilding of the now razed Notre Dame cathedral ( a Paris!) which burnt down last night. Some people might have heard. Macron is not allowed I judge because of the loi de 1904 ( laicite ). This law ( loi) enacts church state separation (in France and not elsewhere like England). It is difficult for the anglos to understand because it is so strict and the anglos have a state paid for religion ( Church of England if you hadnt noticed)
er that's it
I prefer the three word version -

damn - virtue signalling - thx

//Even if it proved to be a retaliation terrorist attack,//
Over Bataclan ( yeah yeah wot dat den?) - the French police ( gendarmerie ) were particular to distinguish terrorism and muslim fundamentalism
and then pointed out the English didnt do that
can anyone say why we dont have the biblical AB fundamentalists saying that the burning of Notre Dame was a parallel to the sacking of Jerusalem in AD 70 by the ROmans ? And not only that but was clearly predicted in Apocalypse.
Silent they are - and weird.... I wd have thought someone at least would have realised it was Holy Week
