Anyone on here who does not expect this to be arson?
It's amazing this actually got out as news. Most stuff in France doesn't these days.

Did they get Quasi out?

Quasi has been mentioned a couple of times but some people grieve more than others and found his name offensive.

They'll be in the back garden for the next half hour holding up a flame from their cigarette lighter.

What's the betting they can't identify a culprit.

Those frogs will be hopping mad if they ever found out it was a religiously motivated arson (terrorist) attack of a national and world icon of civilisation.

Surely a construction fire from the renovation work that was going on extensively at the Cathedral

You would think so, wouldn't you?
But oh no, m4rk has the inside track

I wonder if it was the same firm that was working on the Glasgow School of Art in 2014 and 2018.

I'm devastated by this.
It's symbolic in some way, but I don't know why yet. I don't believe it's an accident but this building is an emblem to our faith and St Denis. It was the iconic to the Resistance and I wonder if this is connected to that fact.

Why can't it just be a construction fire,happens all the time.

Just trying to open up an alternative train of thought given a plethora of possibilities.
Can't see any contractor given a job inside this place starting a fire myself. I might be wrong though. We'll just have to accept what we're told happened.

A truly wonderful structure. The place I usually go to first when I’m in Paris and it had such a majesty about it. A terrible day.

I'm not a religious type but Notre Dame was always a place I loved to visit in my favourite city. Mrs S, however, prefers Sacre Coeur.

Kancut, have you ever visited Saint Julien le Pauvre church in Paris? It's a lovely wee Greek Catholic church - I love it.

The most overrated tourist site on the planet! I'm not sure how it ever became the most famous cathedral when it's not even the oldest or biggest. Just a dark and dingy, grubby little place. Very tacky inside too with all the shops and begging nuns. The McDonalds of religious buildings.
