I remember this was proposed immediately in the days after the conflagration.

Personally, I still think, despite the French gubbermint's denial, that it was purposely set, either by one of the leftist beloved camel humpers, or by atheistic leftist deep staters to further the godless anti-Christian globalist agenda in France.

Destroy one of the greatest icons of Middle Ages Christianity, then rebuild it to reflect the soulless 21st century leftist ideology.
