Jesus struck by lightening
It might be of interest to compare the present lightening strike story with the lightening strike(s) that (reportedly and/or supposedly) ended the rebuilding of the Jewish Temple at Jerusalem circa 360 AD during the reign of Julian the Apostate.

Jesus struck by lightening
And on the rebuilding of the Temple, the occurrence of earthquakes also (supposedly) kept the workmen away from the site. Christian zealotry or not, the rebuilding work ceased, and to this day the Temple remains destroyed.
Christian zealotry during the mid fourth century was indeed fierce, and there is at least one documentation of Christian terrorism against a Jewish synagogue during the reign of Theodosius (late 4th cent.). Bear in mind, however, that the Christian mission of the period was much more focused on destroying Paganism, a mission, moreover, that is still exercised today. It is the Pagan temples of the world that Christianity really obliterated.

Re: urinal and mistletoe
Besides being reenactments (of mistletoe, even?), are today's Duchamp Fountains also representations of the "male fig leaf"? Or might they enforce artistic blabber control? (I wish.) Or do they portend that "in the future, everyone will piss for 15 minutes?"
