Last week, in commemoration of World War I (the armistice was signed 99 years ago this month), Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris featured a beautiful 5-night light show ~

The show, “Dame de Coeur,” tells the story of the cathedral and its role in French history for the benefit of a fictitious injured American soldier in the First World War who tells a young French nurse that he fears dying before he ever sees the fabled French Gothic church.
 
The 20-minute video projection, using 3D mapping, includes 17 luminous images and is the creation of director Bruno Seillier. The message of the light show is a reminder that the 850-year-old cathedral has survived revolutions, rioting, vandals, and two world wars.

Ah, but will it survive the Muslim hijrah?
Last week was also the two year anniversary of a much more tragic event – the November 13th Islamist attacks in Paris. Since then, according to Giulio Meotti at Gatestone Institute, the good news is that French authorities have foiled several dozen terror plots, seized hundreds of weapons and placed 752 suspected jihadis under house arrest. Even so, the general impression is that of a country “frailing from within” ~

After two French girls were murdered by an Islamist in Marseille last month, the social commentator Mathieu Bock-Côté wrote that France is experiencing “a process of national and civilizational decomposition that the authorities have decided to accompany and moderate, without claiming to fight and overthrow it, as if it were unavoidable”. He seem to have got it right […]
 
In France’s parliament, “Islamo-Leftist” voices are becoming increasingly bold. The political class distracts itself with “inclusive writing” at school; in vitro fertilization for singles and gays and on-the-spot fines for “sexist” harassers. No French terrorist who went to cut off heads in Syria lost his citizenship. The magazine Charlie Hebdo is receiving new death threats; no major French publication expressed solidarity with its murdered colleagues by printing Islamic caricatures. The victims’ relatives published books entitled, You Will Not Have My Hate. Many of the French intelligentsia have been dragged into court for alleged “Islamophobia” […]
 
The martyrdom of Father Jacques Hamel at the hands of Islamists has been forgotten; the site of the massacre is still waiting for a visit from Pope Francis as a sign of condolence and respect. French judges are now busy removing Christian symbols from the landscape: last month in Ploërmel, the cross above a statue of Pope John Paul II was ordered dispatched for allegedly violating the separation of church and state.
 

Paris’s Mayor Anne Hidalgo recently banned the city’s main Christmas market for being insufficiently elegant. France’s authorities and elites are tearing up, piece by piece, the country’s historical, religious and cultural legacy so that nothing will remain. But a nation dispossessed of its identity will see its inner strength broken. Samuel Pruvot, a journalist for Famille Chrétienne (“Christian Family”), recently claimed that Christianity in France will be soon found in “museums”.

Next year will be WWI armistice’s centennial. Let’s hope Notre Dame de Paris will still be standing to commemorate the occasion – and hasn’t been turned into France’s largest mosque.
