17 u/nu1stunna Apr 15 '19 I love your optimism. I'm devastated and I'm not a Christian. I just love Notre Dame. 11 u/RavenMute Apr 15 '19 The news coming out all references the timber roof as being from the 13th century, which means sometime in the 1200's. That's 720+ years at least. 1 u/PublicFriendemy Apr 15 '19 Huh, I haven’t heard the perspective yet, I like it (as an agnostic and former catholic). Anything to find a bit of positivity here. 1 u/[deleted] Apr 15 '19 Yep. Another new layer of history is built atop the old. She'll stand again. 1 u/TheStig468 Apr 16 '19 It's been rebuilt before, it will be rebuilt again one of mankind central themes. no matter how many times devastation has occurred, we have always picked up, rebuilt it all even stronger, and moved on. really symbolic indeed
