It's a miracle that the fire that their god started also spared those cinderblocks.

I like also how this guy found a burned Bible page that read "O LORD, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees of the field" and thought it telling, even though he failed to find e.g. Exodus 35:3 "Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day"; Deuteronomy 4:24 "For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God"; Job 15:34 "For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tabernacles of bribery"; Psalms 83:14 "As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire"; Jeremiah 23:29 "Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?"; Ezekiel 22:31 "Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon them; I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath: their own way have I recompensed upon their heads, saith the Lord GOD"; Luke 12:49 "I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?" etc. etc.

There's a lot of mentions of the word "fire" in the Bible!

They're doing it wrong:

"The ClF3 dissolved the 30 cm (12 inch) thick concrete floor and another 90 cm (36 inches) of gravel underneath the spill. The fumes that were generated (chlorine trifluoride, hydrogen fluoride, chlorine, hydrogen chloride, etc.) severely corroded everything that was exposed.3 One eyewitness described the incident by stating, “The concrete was on fire!”"

Given sufficient oxidant, concrete burns well.
