Answer

The answer is no. Lenard was a prominent critic of Theory of relativity, which he believed was incompatible with classical physics. He was particularly critical of the work of Albert Einstein, whom he accused of promoting'Jewish Physics'. Lenard's views were widely condemned by the scientific community and he was eventually dismissed from his professorship at the University of Heidelberg.
