Yeah, it's a ridiculous comparison. I would say that, even more so then it's historical significance, Notre Dame is important because of it's cultural significance.

Did we imply somehow that the loss of a building is a worst atrocity than mass rape or crimes of war? You seem to be disingeniously looking for arguments to fit your narrative. Losing pieces of art and monuments is a sheer loss and it's not minimized because there are "bigger loses". That kind of thinking is, again, intellectually dishonest and low hanging.
If you must hate on catholics or french people just accept that you are filled with vile feelings and stop your fake rationality. It has nothing to do with a burning building.
Now, being more realistic it often depends on who choses what constitutes a "real problem" and a "real solution". Overpopulation is a problem. Mass extinction of animals because of human activities is a problem. These are not things that will be solved solely by throwing money at them.

This is one of those instances where you do a double-take: how can something that's been around for so long and had already been through so much ... now? that's it? it's going? Sayonara to 850 yrs?
Thankfully, no.

Things like how half a billion people live with chronic water scarcity year round and half the planet with it for at least 1 month per year.
The fact the current rate of species extinction is as high as 1000x the natural background extinction rate.
Or that the global sustainability institute is predicting a massive collapse in agricultural productivity within 20 years without massive investment in new technologies and implementation of genetic engineering.
Most if not all of those are already being worked on via government programs and in different communities through people donating their time and money.

I get it, he's upset that other people gave more of their money to something that they care about, rather than what he cares about.

There' also the real fact that one is a cause to restore a building, albeit a historic one and the other is a cause to fight homelessness, starvation and poverty.
