Only In California

Lol... I'd be willing to bet that a lot of the bottles were bought as novelty items, for humor value.

Then there are the staunchly religious... (shrugs). Don't know the Catholic or Anglican faiths well enough to mock them for wanting blessed water. I don't even know what they use it for.

Blessed water ??? Well....you could pour it over your head. For all the good it would do for anything, you may as well do that.

Or bathe in it?

I don't know one priest in town who would bless holy water to sell.

I think the guy made up the "blessed" part. Some gimmick.

Buuuuuuuuurn.


Thumbs up on that one, lol. Funny stuff.

Bathe ??? That's a new word.

I meant what religious function it serves. Obviously, not being of their faith, it is no different to me than any other bottle of water. But I am not going to shrug it off so quickly if it is something that would technically serve a function in their belief system.

Honestly, I wouldn't laugh at a Jewish person for paying more for a kosher food product just because the OTHER, cheaper product was just as good to me. Dunno.

Well I suppose if the weather is hot, like it is here....you could pour it over your head and say "God that feels good !!!".
Thats kind of a religious function.....in a way.........er...I think.
