1. They will do anything for tourism, very sad.

2. I’m afraid to see what will happen…

3. “Experts”

4. If they really want to attract the kids, they need a Fortnite corner overlooked by two huge busts of Keemstar and Pewdiepie

5. This is going to be an abomination to a spiritual edifice has stood for 1000 years.

   And I’m an atheist.

6. Why isn’t there a picture of it? Are they afraid?

7. This is not the same story that Telegraph has been telling.. Fascinating.. to note, i don’t trust Telegraph, at all.

8. A great opportunity put to good use – well done, France!

9. No reason why an actively used church couldn’t be modernized. It sure has been modernized several times along its lifetime according to need and zeitgeist.

10. To be fair there is a very slim chance it would ever be the same it was. Would be interesting to actually see some comparing images telling how different it will be.

11. what they forget to say is that the idea of trying to freeze it into a supposedly “eternal” state has even more critics

12. What they should modernize are the fire prevention and protection systems.
