They say renovations were under way.

well will be a bit more than that now.

this is sad to think how much history is lost today because of all this. not just the building, but everything inside they could not get out in time.

All the woodwork is pretty much gone - which is most of ceiling and interior.

someone said the firemen has switched to saving as much of the paintings/artifacts as they can at this point.

Oh my heart breaks seeing Notre Dame in flames. But all things will fade except the Lord eternal who makes all thing new.

christianity will prevail. Truth wins all the time.

Therefore, there is no need to freak out and wet your bed over muslims....

that remains to be seen

So all of that "Christianity will prevail" is just shit you said that you don't believe until you see it?

You are not very good at this "faith" thing are you....

FIrst responders are working desperately to save works of art as firefighters from the entire city try to put the fire out. Notre-Dame cathedral on fire in Paris

Yeah, good luck with that. Given that the walls have burned, I doubt much art can be saved.

they're trying to save what they can - hopefully they got a lot out. can you imagine being a first responder and running in to start getting things out?

I hope you're not a doctor because your bedside manner would be sorely lacking.

Too many chain smoking French workmen, most likely.

Oh my god...that is a huge loss for history, and the world....I'm crying

One spokesman said that there were reports that this was no accident. Shep Smith shut that down right away.

 

[Marion Morrison]

That's very sad. I have pictures of it somewhere.

Award to first loony liberal who blames disastrous Notre Dame fire on Trump.
