Fuck off. That literally leaves achievements of whites in ruins. Remember how people were talking about rebuilding the buddhas of bamiyan? That shit never happened and every fucking day, those muslim motherfuckers look up at the ruins and are happy. Remember the Twin Towers? Every day those muslim motherfuckers look up and are happy.
No, we rebuilt. Everything they destroy, we rebuild. Then we build more. Eventually, people will get so tired of it that someone will nuke Mecca and they won't ever rebuild that.

I get it. I get your point of view, I do. But no. This is not appropriate. Over time, apathy will creep in and people just won't care. To add to it, the vaulted ceilings of the cathedral are now directly exposed to the weather. The damage will become irreparable and all of the structure would be completely lost.
So... no.
They've already amassed more than six times the figure quoted as being needed for restoration work prior to the fire. Donations are still flooding in and there's still insurance money to come. You don't need to donate because it's an obvious scam. Where is that suplus money going to go huh? Ka-ching!

seriously... between the insurance and the Pope's bank roll, they can rebuild it themselves.
I strongly, strongly suspect that very few goats have the ability to donate in any meaningful fashion to a project this large.
But, I suspect that doesn't actually matter.
I also strongly suspect they'll have no major issue fundraising to repair the cathedral. Some dude has already pledged nearly half a billion and I'm positive many other people with means will donate significant sums.
I so strongly suspect this that I'd be mildly concerned if I saw them begging for donations from average people.

It doesn't matter if they rebuild it. If Macron doesn't lower taxes the yellow vests will just burn that bitch down again. Don't piss off millions of people with essentially nothing to lose.

rebuilding the church is going to take a while anyway. If a muslim would try to burn it down again during that time or even a bit after, I imagine it would send the same message except louder. Muslims thought it was cool, surely they will mimic this, or maybe I am wrong and do not know people at all.
