schulmeisterhaft

- ,,Welche der beiden Religionen ist die richtige: die katholische oder die protestantische? - Alle beide sind falsch", antwortete der Geist schulmeisterhaft. Eine ungesunde Neugier

Bartolo asked "the spirit": "Is Jesus Christ God?"-"Yes," the medium answered.-"Are the precepts of the Ten Commandments true?-"Yes, except the sixth" (Thou shalt not commit adultery).-"Which of the two religions is the true one: Catholicism or Protestantism?"-"Both are false," the spirit pronounced sententiously.
