The Monster of Ravenna
Meet the monster of Ravenna. This beast was said to be born of a nun and a friar, which showed the supposed corruption of the church. Many Europeans during this time loved the display of monsters, which explained many other Protestant pieces of propaganda.
The abomination of the monster of Ravenna was supposed to show that God was against the current church, a theme carried on with other monstrous propaganda.
This shows a lack of logical influence from the Scientific Revolution, as it makes little genetic sense for two humans to have a child with a dragon leg. Or an eye on its knee. Or wings.
