CBC News has examined 33 Canadian churches that burned to the ground since May 2021. Just two were ruled accidental.
Investigators have determined that 24 were deliberately set while others are still under investigation. Some researchers and community leaders suggest Canada’s colonial history and recent discoveries of potential burial sites at former residential schools may have lit the fuse.

Yep! It’s good work! We should burn the rest. All of them. Religion is cancer.
Seems like a good way to radicalize religious folks; surely wanton cruelty to those you disagree with has no downsides
Like I get hating religion, there’s a lot there that’s understandable to hate, but its worth considering if being vindictive towards people who’s worldview you don’t like is actually a practical strategy to improving the world. You’re just gonna get new churches that are more dogmatic and convinced of their ‘righteousness in the face of unknown evil’
Taking your anger out on the world is actually kinda bad for the world, who could have guessed
