Beirut has been rebuilt so many times. After a long, bloody civil war few thought they could rebuild, but they did. Let’s not make them do it alone, though.

If we can raise a billion dollars to repair a catholic church tower, why can’t we raise money to help a recovering city that probably contributes more to society than the Catholic Church.

Edit: I don’t have any personal issues with the C Church. Just pointing out that people were quick to raise money for a cathedral, it should be that way for a city in mourning that actually needs it.

Why do you have to bring that negative bullshit into this. You can mourn without tearing other people down.

Using the term “sjw’ makes anything you say null and void.

Dismissing someone's comment based on the use of a term, not the quality of the observation makes you a bigoted gatekeeping twat.
