I grew up Catholic, and for many, many reasons I chose to leave the church over 20 years ago. That's a different conversation. But let me explain why I still find this to be a terrible loss to humanity as a whole.
If that doesn't matter to you, than humanity might as well just fuck itself into oblivion, because if you don't care that something beautiful was lost, what DO you care about?
Because goddamnit these things *matter* to the human condition. We have, since we learned to walk upright, known art.
Or did you forget that part of history?
But do not rejoice in pain, loss, and destruction. France is wounded right now. She doesn't need you to tell her to "get over it".
Je regret, mes amis. Je suis tres tristes.
