Yes. They are pointy and mounted high in order to attract and dissipate the accumulating energy in the atmosphere. They are not designed to take direct strikes and direct the energy to ground. They act as a pressure relieve, if you will, to ground the energy before it builds to the level of creating a lightning strike.
