So the authorities declared it wasn’t arson before they had time to put the fire out? Hmmm . . .

Islam has wanted France since the 700s. Unlike Christianity, Islam doesn’t stop until it gets what it wants. It will take a huge army led by an El Cid to remove them now, or God’s Spirit inundating mosques and causing mass conversions.

Actually before the fire department squeezed through the narrow streets of Isle de la Cite, I believe.

[ The Notre Dame fire also occurred at a time when attacks against churches in France and Europe have been multiplying. More than 800 churches were attacked in France during the year 2018 alone. ]

Ah, now that's just a tinfoil nut-job conspiracy!

Celebrate diversity invasion!

Why does everyone assume that the fire having been caused by the activity of the construction workers and terrorism are mutually exclusive??

Given the significant number of foreigners and illegal aliens living in Paris, I can't believe that they were not a part of that construction crew - as they are of construction crews in many areas of the US.

What would have prevented terrorists from infiltrating the Notre Dame construction crew for the purpose of sabotage by fire?

Yes, and perhaps it was an accident. That no terrorist organization is taking credit for such massive destruction of Christendom is telling. But that the authorities declared "not arson!" before the flames were doused tells me that there will be no serious investigation as to the cause.

Imagine my business is burning and the fire chiefs arrive on scene and immediately declared "Not arson!" before they even hooked up their hoses? They would be ridiculed.

This is essentially what happened at Notre Dame.

he transept and the choir now lie in open air, vulnerable to bad weather. They cannot even be protected until the structure has been examined thoroughly, a task that will take weeks.

.................................

Yet an hour into the fire, they ruled out arson.

Makes one want to fall to their knees and weep over the remaining smoldering embers of European civilization, and, realize it happened not by accident but as a deliberate act of political suicide.

I don't think a huge army defending Europe from Islam is in the cards. The EU is using the Islamic hordes to kill European (i.e., Judeo/Christian) civilization so that it can replace it with communism administered by the EU.

How the EU plans to get rid of Islam when the time comes is a mystery. I guess they plan to maintain their grip on the treasury and just turn off the spigot at the appropriate time.

When the Muslims riot and burn their own communities, the EU will just watch them burn.

The enemy of Islam is the same as the enemy of the EU...the man in the street who loves freedom.

Pockets of guerillas can wreak havoc on the Muslim communities and the nation members of the EU.

That is the enemy of Islamic/EU Europe.

I think the Gilets Jaunes are emblematic of the army of the future (even if they don't know it yet). They are the beginning of what must spread and grow.

The kings ruled by the divine right (of Kings) as leadership conferred upon them via the Pope and his priests. After WWI and WWII, Christianity was finished as Socialism hid the power the kings and queens behind socialist governments. In cases where the royal families were killed or disappeared the nations became communist states (Russian and China as prime examples).

Yet the Kings and royals still wield power and are still supported by the stipends of millions of Euros a year by the socialist states. Why are royal families still in power if they if they are supposedly not in power.

Fast forward to John Kerry and Barrack Obama who act like royalty still running around doing their illegal Hatch Act prohibited diplomacy.

I wrote the president this morning about the issue of Americans election representatives and not “Elites” as in Europe. I asked the president to remind the democrats and the American people that those elected are not royalty nor are they elites, but rather our leaders come form the common people.

I would urge Americans to write the President Trump about the current misunderstanding being foisted upon the American people by the democrats and the so called elites. Use your own words.

American still has Christianity. Jews and Christians are two groups of people which I am most comfortable. Shinto, Buddhism, Taoism, Shamanism (Shamanism and not to commingled with Witchcraft), are all examples of other peaceful religions. India’s different worshiping is something to see and try to understand for as many planets and stars there are Gods so numerous to count and it speaks to worship of travelers perceived to be out-worldly. The God of the Jews and Gentile may well too be similar or from a realm entirely.

The people who worship Satan and witchcraft do so against God. Islam is too set against God’s people.

The evil in the world that Islam sets against all others is sickening. Why has Prince Charles converted to Islam? Did the lost art of following The Bible cause that Englishman to bear the sin of his fathers?

Those European Royal families no longer rule but hide their rule behind socialism and thus “cast off God” as a moral authority and guiding principle.

Rant over.

'in the destruction of Notre Dame an additional sign of an "irreversible decadence" of France, and of the final collapse of the Judeo-Christian roots of Europe

THE DECADENCE OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION
Note tagline.

"It is as if God Himself wanted to warn us in the most unmistakable way that Western Christianity is burning -- and with it, Western civilization."

"It is a sign of what we are losing, and what we will not recover, if we don't change course now."

"nothing indicates that France and Western Europe will change course."

President Trump and his supporters believe that America has not yet reached the point of no return, that the decadence of Western Civilization in America can be halted and reversed. This is what the Trump Revolution is all about. Pray that he is right.

GODLESS NATIONS FALL!

The death of Christianity linked to the ND fire? Nope. The death throes of Christianity goes further back than this fire. It goes back into the 15th century and possibly earlier. It goes back to the Inquisition and the Churches influence into government. It was not until the Church of England separated itself from the Vatican did separation of Church and State become a flicker of flame into revolutionaries everywhere. The Church or the Vatican was its own enemy of the people. It will be responsible for its own downfall. Islime and atheists will help it along.

As to the saying it wasn’t “arson before the fire was out” Think about it what better way to bring in donations or repair money than to never let an opportunity go to waste. Whatever the case, arson or not, the deed is done, people are donating huge sums and now the Church has its repair money.

A long, difficult and complex investigation will be conducted.

Sounds like James Comey is was on it.

Since it wasn't nearly as complex as the investigation of BJ's wife, he was able to complete it in an hour.
