There Is No War On Christianity – REBUILD NOTRE DAME AS A ‘SECULAR’ SHRINE? from WND Faith
GNN Note – Corporate media continually tells us there is no war on Christianity, however, they never report any of the Christian slaughter happening in Nigeria which we have been documenting since we launched. Corporate media rarely reports any of the attacks against churches going on across France. Never mind the fact corporate media doesn’t report any attacks against conservative, Christian Americans which have become an almost daily event. However, they will be more than happy to report whenever a muslims feelings are hurt or defend a muslim when they, literally, speak against America or speak against the Jewish community – this is perfectly acceptable. Repeat After Me, There is No War On Christianity

Architects, historians argue France has changed
As pledges to rebuild the Notre Dame Cathedral mount to more than $1 billion, some architects and historians see an opportunity to re-imagine the 850-year-old church as a secular shrine, less “burdened” with Christian meaning.
Writing for the Rolling Stone, EJ Dickson observed that “for some people in France, Notre Dame has also served as a deep-seated symbol of resentment, a monument to a deeply flawed institution and an idealized Christian European France that arguably never existed in the first place.”
Dickson cited Patricio del Real, an architecture historian at Harvard University.
“The building was so overburdened with meaning that its burning feels like an act of liberation,” she said.
Michael Kimmelmann wrote for the New York Times that the cathedral has been viewed by some as a stodgy reminder of “the old city — the embodiment of the Paris of stone and faith — just as the Eiffel Tower exemplifies the Paris of modernity, joie de vivre and change.”
Dickson noted that while French President Emmanuel Macron and major donors have emphasized that the cathedral should be rebuilt as close to the original as possible, some architectural historians believe that would be complicated.
They point to the many stages of Notre Dame’s evolution.
