"In the early days, court proceedings involving insects were strictly ecclesiastical because it was reasoned that insects were not answerable to civil authorities, rather only to divine authority. Thus, early on it became the responsibility of the church to fathom the wishes of God or to foil the schemes of Satan.
Excommunication was the ultimate weapon against insects, although there was a bit of confusion on this point; excommunication is effective only for church members and, since insects didn't pay taxes and weren't baptized, they technically couldn't claim church membership. Nonetheless, excommunications against insects could be obtained for a fee from Rome with great ease, although there was some controversy as to the advisability of such actions - because they are God's creatures, to anathematized them was tantamount to criticizing His good judgment. Clever lawyers found their way around these formidable obstacles, however."
- May Berenbaum, "Bugs in the System," pg.114
