Why are they burning down the churches? If they don't respect them for being churches, can't they at least respect the historical significance of the buildings?

They would respect them if they were converted to mosques like the Hagia Sofia.

If radical Muslims are doing the burning, they see the churches as temples of idolatry. There's nothing worth preserving in their view

Islam will want to build a Mosque over this destroyed church.

It is what they do and are doing in Europe.

But Notre Dame happened to just accidentally burn down on Good Friday all by itself.

Christianity is Dead in Europe. Say hello to your Muslim masters.

All the French have to do is convert to Islam and all their problems will be gone.

Because the pos who are migrating to Western countries don't want to assimilate. They are Jihadis and don't respect Western culture. It's insane that the people in power allow this bs. It makes me sick.

I dont think there was any real discussion about Notre Dame besides rebuilding it

I thought I remember there being some talk about making it a mosque and then making it a multi-religion thing not looking anything like it did before it burned. Glad they settled on simply rebuilding it just like it was.

How is it coming along, I wonder.
