I am tired of Pretending, what is the use of this Cross On the building? Why do Christians always put it on the top of their roofs?

Not only are they found in Christian houses...they are very common on top of those old buildings barring wateva religion they belong to..

But u know what?? I don't know what it's used for, when I was small I used to tink they are aeroplanes that crash landed on top of those roofs and eventually shrink..what a marvelous thinking from a marvelous brain of mine grin

Is like a earth connected to the ground to prevent electric shocks against thunder strike. It can work for 3-5 buildings closer to main building having it.

Its a spike lightening arrestor. Placed on top of tall buildings to provide a safety buffer against lightning strikes. A connection runs from the spike to ground, where the charges are earthened. If you've seen the devastating effects of lightning, you'll better appreciate its functions on buildings.

Lighting conductor- physics
Thunder arrestor - builder

To protect the house incase of a thunder strike. The metal neutralises the electric charge that comes with the thunder.

It's simply called a THUNDER PROTECTOR! Don't be misled thinking it has any spiritual significance.
