Notre Dame is on fire !

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. I can pick from dozens of your comments on Muslims that all imply you know all you need to already about them.

My logic is the same as yours. Personal behavior goes a long way. Prior to that all I have is assumptions.

If someone is wearing a NY Yankee hat is it unfair to think they like the team?

 

Yes. They're a tourist.
No ifs or buts about it.

 

Tourist or fan would prove my point

You don't know them yet from what they look like you assume something since they show it.

I'm a bit surprised people took my comments as racist. I wonder if I truly don't get how I word a statement or if it's just the defense mechanism of people who know I have a point and they are more like me than they care to admit to me.

 

Alex Jones will likely call it a false flag operation by the Catholic Church to cover up evidence of child molestation and kiddie porn

 

Lol, you saw one meme dude.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I know how Alex Jones thinks, everything is a conspiracy

 

The typical Jones listener will have a beef with the Catholic Church and anything they deem "left wing".

Since the media says this is not Muslims and it happened in Europe where of course Muslims run things there is a good chance he will claim fake news and Pizza gate and say Muslims did it.

 

Hmm well it was such an old building one must consider knowing Frances brutal past, what atrocities may have been committed in such a place?

 

I don't feel anything about this. Not to be edgy by not caring, or to try and piss people off. I can't help that I just don't feel anything about this.
And I don't see it as a lack of respect if someone says on Twitter that they think it looks aesthetically pleasing.
I'd hate to see a world where everybody lies if they don't feel the thing that everyone is supposed to feel.

 

It's been interesting to say the least, especially on FB where people I'd known a long time, that couldn't appreciate a good building they were standing in front of, or never looked or cared about art or culture, how they all seemed moved by this. This is a moment they paused their hectic immature lifestyles and reflected. Shit. This just happened. Like none of the other stuff that's reported in the news bares any significance on their world view, but a church they've spent their whole life arguing against just happens to be the headline of conscious awakening.

I feel a literal indifferent too. It's not shock, I just don't know how to feel or what I am meant to feel. I'm reading zero casualties, right? Isn't that all that matters? They'll rebuild it. Shit, even the pyramids and the ancient structures are built and rebuilt on top of each other. The new one will be even better, and have free wifi. Stuff usually hits me a long time after anyway. It's almost like I feel there's too much emotion around an event and I can't take emotion on a personal level it's too frantic, so I sort of back out into a shell and go back to it at a later date.

I suppose I have to put it in terms of what it would mean to me, for something I liked to be burned down. I see that many Cathedrals around Europe under years of scaffolding to fix them up and they come out looking authentic still. Like they'll make the new sections that burned down look pretty ace man and you won't know the difference and you got to live through that history and no body died. The great fire of Notre Dame, and your grand-kids and own children will read and hear about it, and they'll see the re-work, and it'll look fabulous and they'll appreciate that for hopefully centuries and millennia to come.

 

It's one thing not to care, one thing to haha at it. I really don't see the point. And I am usually a huge fan of snarky, aloof, and dark humour.

We get it, everyone and everything sucks, life is tough, people are stupid.
It gets tiring when it's always the same people putting everything down.

It's ok to care about things.

It is exhausting how over the top cynicism is a thing with some people these days, to the point where people actually do care about things it is ridiculed, and seen as superficial and fake.

Wow, people care about this beautiful, old piece of architecture. Haha.

 

Yeah, I can see that.

 

the same person that said mussy first, was the same person that said trump first..

clan here cant get the trump crumbs out of their panties .. but we already knew that.

 

Not being a dick, actually thought this was a cool photoshop

 

^^^...Can't See It.....Comes Up As "403 Forbidden"......?



Cheers Glen.

 

I understand.

I understand. I waited a while before I posted my thoughts on this and I guess I posted them out of sadness that I had also felt a bit indifferent as the post above me, which saddened me because I love this sort of stuff I've spent many adventure and vacations planned around Europe looking at these things. Maybe it is a bit of shock and denial. -shrug- and the news comes so hectic and frantic and it's kind of a headcase for me. Did you ever get to visit? That would at least be a good memory.

 

Sadly there have already been a number of pictures and memes which were done in bad taste.

 

says the guy who posted a child porn conspiracy meme. c'mon man lol.

 

You had to bring that up didn't you
