If you were accused of a crime(a more severe one), you would be thrown in the water and if you sunk you were not guilty for the water "accepted" you and they would pull you out of the water and free you. If you floated you were guilty because the water "rejected" you. Isn't it crazy!

The idea that a germ could cause a disease did not come into being until people saw them in microscopes, and even then it took a long time for people to realize it was possible.
