It is well-known that the JDJ had vehemently opposed the scientific theories of Galileo and Copernicus, but did you know that they had also opposed Benjamin Franklin's lightning rod?5 ]. R8 w* X9 o. @! {1 A; ~; M) e

不解的是, 雷竟然专劈教堂, 而极少光顾与教堂仅一街之隔的妓院, 赌场。那年* @+ A  ~7 B' [( r( X0 ~

关于雷电, 当时的著名的JDT 有过如下解释- c: @2 ?0 M! [5 C9 p
St. Thomas Aquinas said "Rain and winds, and whatsoever occurs by local impulse alone, can be caused by demons. It is a dogma of faith that the demons can produce winds, storms, and rain of fire from heaven."

- v5 E: u) B5 q$ C- s) `% P/ YMartin Luther asserted that the winds themselves are good or evil spirits. He declared that a stone thrown into a certain pond in his native city would cause a dreadful storm because of the devils kept prisoners there.

劈的史实并没有因此而改变。 倒是有些心思灵活, 信教不诚者, 一看到雷雨要来,7 k' {" D1 B8 S* ~, k% \
立刻就跑到对面的妓院, 赌场去了反而可以逃过一劫。
