So Yea Forums Ive been a emotional wreck as of late duo to the whole notre dame burning. All that history , all those secrets hidden in the walls never to be seen. It's literally alexandria on a smaller scale
give me some good historical rts games to ease the pain.
I don't give a shit about some wood nailed together.
Ian Richardson
>all those secrets hidden in the walls What? AoE2
Jaxon Reyes
Given your blatant disregard for history, I say fuck you too then.
Dominic Rodriguez
you built the notre dame or what op? lmao how do you be an emotional wreck over it
John Myers
I was walking through it in Assassin's Creed Unity all night last night. Eerie, but comfy. Really sucks, man, but these things happen. It's also not the first time it's been damaged, although never this heavily.
Owen Perez
The history is still intact even if Notre Dame burns to tinders. One day, eventually, Notre Dame (and everywhere else) will be destroyed.
Adrian Rogers
well not really just this a combination of stuff. Most western civs are showing degeneracy levels, before rome fell and everyone's ok with it
Ethan Jones
true but more stuff will be built with the same info about the structures on them
Blake Evans
It was being remodeled, so a lot of artifacts and items were removed and secured, so if anything, it's the architecture that was affected
Lincoln Lewis
Sand niggers will never appreciate history because they love to destroy it.
>it was being remodeled They may have taken it too far. Did someone have the Demolish tool selected on accident?
Oliver Martin
Only the roof burnt.
Lmao i'm french and tired of all the foreigners pretending this is some devastating event in their life
Nathan Phillips
THANK YOU, I needed this news I was not really worried about the structure itself but the stuff inside.
Kayden Stewart
yeah fuck niggers Well sorry, i'm concerned about the history inside
Levi Nguyen
@458754261(OP) It's the fucking Muslims in Paris that did this there is no doubt in my mind that they started the fire. VIVE LA FRANCE FUCK THE MUSLIMS
>Notre-dame is burning down >autists/conspiracy and agenda pushing leeches are already making up wild claims about how this was jewish or muslim attack on christians and that the french government was involved somehow
>Rome in its prime >Not one of the most degenerate societies ever
Levi Murphy
we're they just letting the top part of it burn or what? I don't think I saw any firefighters on the Livestream either.
Carter Bell
So mostly only the roof and one "orgue" (big piano idk the english word) got burnt.
The highest point of Notre Dame , the flèche fell with the roof but it was not the original but a copy rebuilt in the 19th century.
All relics and pieces of art got saved. The biggest loss is the wooden roof which was like 800 years old.
Also it's a catholic building, so before being sad for a symbole of my religion, stop being a racist, because it's against catholic value and most French catholic would be really ashamed to talk to someone who use "nigger".
It's one think to wank on a building, but what matters most os respecting the value and teaching of catholicism. Which is something /pol/ will never understand.
Colton Martin
It's just kids larping. It happens literally everytime a thing happens. People are afraid of random tragedy. If it's some group's fault, it feels controllable. Let them be weak.
Adam Butler
That was my impression too, it's just some really nice woodwork being lost - nothing with too much gravity like the one ancient archaeological site in South America burning a few years ago. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_destroyed_heritage
Connor Ortiz

Daniel Evans
>all those secrets hidden in the walls Go to bed, Dan Brown
John Bailey
>one of the most well known churches in the world almost burns down completely >barely saved through the efforts of the Parisian firemen >Christcucks are now unironically posting this image as proof of god because the cross didn't burn
Pottery
Wyatt Parker
There were 300, just look at any video of the event. And yes the roof could not be salvaged in any case so they focused on the structure.
The roof area actually had no electricity to avoid a fire, because any fire would mean the complete destruction. No matter how fast the fire fighters arrived
Brayden James
>800 year old cathedral that has endured hardships for centuries in one of the most war-torn parts of the world >/pol/tards freak out and think a measly fire is somehow going to destroy a massive stone structure
Whatever got destroyed was probably 50~100 years old at most.
I am a atheist, but I will say that that place is a historic monument
Sebastian Wood
Actually the wooden part is 800 years old. There was so many wood used in the roof that it is called (was) : the forest.
The stone structure got damaged by the fire but survived
Logan Williams
This, none of the woodwork in Notre Dame is even close to original
James Hernandez
>Implying thisnisnthe first time Notre Dame has burned >Implying this is the first time any historic site has burned >Implying we won't just fix it again, and again, and again like we have since they were built Why is everyone losing their shit?
Ancient architecture is living structure, buildings burning down and being rebuilt is part of the progression of history. Just pray that modernist architecture doesn't come in and fuck it up. Also waiting to find out the construction crew contracted to do the work that caused the fire all originate from """ Asia """ and don't speak a lick of French.
Lincoln Powell
>m-m-m-m-muslims!!!
Christian Murphy
I was sorry to see it burn, I think it's a beautiful building, I just think it's hilarious how the literal burning of a church, the last thing you should want as a Christian, is twisted until it's actually proof of god. It just shows how far Christcucks will go in their delusion.
Justin Gutierrez
More than half of it was original,
Nolan Campbell
>shuuuurrrrrrrrr ve isnd 4 vibeo gamus hurrrr Kill,yourself, cancer. You're the reason Yea Forums is a fucking shithole.
Andrew Price
I'm murican so I can't put into context how big this is. What would be the American equivalent of Notre Dame burning
The existence of metal itself is proof of God's power.
John Thompson
Yeah because obviously this kind of rénovation would be handled by non-french speaking migrants. And not by specialists. Retard
Isaiah Thompson
Macdonald's HQ.
Noah Perry
Congress and/or WH with everyone and lobbysts inside? No, wait... that would actually be beneficial..
Jack Jones
Most (if not all) of the famous art there was able to be saved, and the statues on the steeple were taken down a week before because they were renovating shit
aside from the murals, nothing of value was lost
Jace Jackson

Cooper Flores
FUCKING CHINKS RUINING EVERYTHING
Alexander Morgan
There isn't one. The Notre Dame Cathedral is older than America itself and has historic and religious significance greater than anything existing in America (I say this as an atheist American). Honestly I'm surprised the disaster wasn't treated the way 9/11 was over here, though at this point I think the French population is so jaded and hopeless that even this couldn't stir them.
Gavin Miller
As a French it would be Empire State Building.
Most of the crying is from foreigners. Sure we parisians are a bit sad but it will be rebuilt
Kevin Evans
Do you really care about Notre Dame? It's a building.
Angel Bennett
And the earth will eventually be gone too. Doesn't make the fact that it was an 800 year old building any less important. We aren't comsic beings that live on a grand time scale.
Nathaniel Young
Ment for
Chase Jenkins
Nothing. The most important thing you losers have is a piece of paper that disenfranchised half the population and didn't stop slavery.
Jayden Parker
retarded
Sebastian Sullivan
Yea you're right. St Patrick's Cathedral is imaginary.
Sebastian Richardson
That's my entire point. Specialists are what any regular person would want for this job, but specialists don't burn down a world-renown monument. If/when it comes out that corners were cut on this it's going to be a big fucking deal.
Michael Johnson
I agree. It's importance is basically nothing. Better off enjoying life then worry about buildings.
Luke Reyes
Go back to pol yall cry about a building but when people get murder you find it funny.
Easton Cruz
>t's literally alexandria on a smaller scale No it's not you uneducated retard. alexandria was the equivalent of wikipedia going offline forever.
Brody Baker
There's video footage of Parisiens wailing in the street as the roof collapses. Stop trying to be cool and Tsundere Baguette-kun.
Jose Perez
Look into the history of notre dame and you get a appreciation for it brainlet.
Jayden Lee
Your life is basically nothing and might as well kill yourself if you're so nihilistic. Because you'll be dead soon anyway :^)
Cooper Jones
>caring about some bullshit christian symbol of oppression
LOL i wish everything was burnt down to the ground, but the fire only managed to destroy one of the spires and most of the roof.
Kevin Williams
Post your local churches, Yea Forums. No Varg, you don't.
The museon in Alexandria was overstated and didn't spectacularly burn down, things just got neglected over the centuries (Late Antique expert and papyrologist Roger Bagnall wrote a good article on it). Similar to more current myths about the cultural effect of the Mongol destruction of Baghdad in 1258, long after it had its cultural peak and largely deemed unimportant by Islamic contemporaries.
Evan Clark
800 years old building, but the wood that burned was 1200+ years old apparently.
Nathaniel Miller
SHUT UP BUILDINGS ARE MY LIFE
Mason Bell
for emotional value Mount Rushmore or statue of liberty
Sebastian Davis
No it wasn't. The burning of the library happened well after most of its existing work had been disseminated throughout the Hellenic world, and the actual damages of the fire are overstated in modern sources. The knowledge of the ancient world was lost over a long period of time as the Roman empire collapsed and literacy rates tanked due to decentralization.
Blake Scott
Murder is not funny to me, stop projecting.
Adrian Garcia
My guy, 3,000 people died on 9/11. A relatively minor fire at a church is not even close in terms of significance, no matter how old the church is and its history. They'll renovate it by the end of the year but those 3,000 people are gone forever and so are the twin towers.
Liam Bailey
? Can you at least wait for the first clues fucking racist
Gavin Cook
I don't think anything will make me appreciate a building user.
Josiah Torres
I appreciate nice architecture. I also don't like seeing people get murdered.
We're really good at archieving history. It's something we can excel at these days with technology. The history will always be there and the church can be rebuilt. What's most important is that your faith is unshakable. No accident, no terror attack can destroy your faith in God.
Also it's most a roof and one of the spires. It'll be rebuilt and most of the building is intact.
I'm not nihilistic in the slightest. Don't project.
Nolan Nelson
No Americans care about Rushmore or the Statue of Liberty (beyond using that faggy poem to justify their unexamined political beliefs). They're monuments to nothing in particular built away from the public eye and treated like bizarre oddities. Notre Dame has an actual social function and has existed in the center of Paris for hundreds of years.
Gabriel Gutierrez
I mean it,most people do not care that much. And also there are no parisians near Saint Michel at this hour of the day. It was mostly tourist until the night came
Juan Martinez
You dumb fuck, the roof may be gone but it was from the 19th century, not the original. All statutes and relics inside were removed before the renovations started. The building still stands, it's damaged but still there. The fire of Alexandria is overblown too, it wasn't a single huge fire that engulfed every single book inside. Stuff just got destroyed/lost over time or burned down in multiple, separate and smaller fires. Your post reeks of pretentiousness, sure it sucks but why the fuck would it ruin your day, did your ancestors build it? Do you have a personal link with it?
Most people's reactions to 9/11 had nothing to do with the number of casualties, it was the raw vicarious nature of the towers falling that fucked with most people. The vast, vast majority of the population had no real connection to anyone in the towers or on the ground. Now for native New Yorkers I'm sure it was a different story.
Tyler Gonzalez
Statue of Liberty or Mount Rushmore
Charles Foster

Mason Barnes
The three Rose windows survived

David Morales
Is there an actual good game I can play?
Aiden Roberts
Ya who gives a fuck about old things, the moment you hit retirement you should just be killed, ground up and fed to the next generation
Luis Sanders
>French population is so jaded and hopeless that even this couldn't stir them today people at the office barely talked about it, displaying that you are a christian is a fucking stigma, being atheist is cool. We have a fetish with life, as long a nobody dies everything is cool, when a mudlsim start shooting at people they can't stop talking about it.
Caleb Cook
3000 people is fucking nothing, just like how worthless one human being is nowadays
Cameron Hill
Nigga, the fire was an accident. Even a specialist isn’t accident-proof.
Asher Flores
My house DID burn down. I missed it, but that loss was a lot more personal. I can understand a personal connection to the building by parishioners, workers, and the diocese... but fail to see how I should care. I wouldn't expect them to care about my house.
Cooper Wright
I think live, in the moment as the roof was collapsing, people assumed the entire structure was going to collapse or be burned, hence the people absolutely losing their fucking minds in the streets. Now that the smoke's cleared and the extent of the damage known, people aren't as devastated.
