I think it was arson in the form of a religious attack. It's too much of a coincidence that this happened in the week of Easter.

……oh,… God ……

Honestly if you think about how many pedophiles that place has produced and harboured... should have burned down a long time ago. RealBlessing

Chris is busy lecturing us on his Roman Catholic knowledge and practices. But I have not seen him critique his Democrat brother’s abortion bill which would essentially allow infanticide. Selective faith?

I'm disgusted by the amount of people that think this is just a structure. It's an iconic church.

What ?

😥

The city of Paris’ fire chief and Mayor should go to jail over this one. Who paid who here? Such a shame, such incompetence! Such stupidity.

Depressing..
