  I remember when I first read that the French masses, in their fervor
to eradicate any traces of the Second Estate during the revolution,
utterly destroyed the abbey church at Cluny, then the largest church
in Christendom (including St. Peter's). Quel dommage! That time, it
was a morally justified secular passion, but similar to the religious
fatwas and iconoclasms, etc.
