[QUOTE="Blown 89, post: 16178224, member: 45161"] If you read through the article they address that. Apparently they've known for some time that the attic was an extreme fire danger and aging has dried the wood to a point that it's extremely flammable. Due to the building's age it doesn't follow any fire codes so there weren't any fireblocks or anything up there hence the voracity in which the fire took over. The article also addresses the construction company and the precautions they have to follow as well as the history of fires. Apparently the church is very apprehensive of any electricity in the rafters. Also, these churches haven't been safe from fires for hundreds of years. Fire has been destroying man made buildings for centuries. Let's not pretend that is something new. [/QUOTE]
