Notre Dame


“All things are in place in that work of art – self-created, logical, and well proportioned. To measure the great toe of the foot is to measure the giant.” -- Victor Hugo.

The giant is broken. The roof collapsed; the great Rose Window is no more. She will be rebuilt, though I won't see that day. I wish I had not seen this day.

It feels like civilization is collapsing.

Not getting much mention was a fire inside the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. Fortunately, it wasn't as devastating.

So some children cause a minor fire not at Al Aqsa but at the Marwani prayer hall, which caused no injuries or damage and this is related to the massive fire at Notre Dame? https://israel-thrives.blogspot.com/ I assure you that there were larger fires which did caused greater damage and went unreported.

Reportedly the rose windows survived the fire.
