Christians believe that a man in a robe saying some magic words transforms "regular" water into "holy" water, thus giving it magical properties. Well, what happens when that water evaporates? Are those water molecules still "holy"? In that case, as the molecules scatter they would rise into the atmosphere and form water droplets and eventually fall as rain somewhere. Does the presence of a molecule of "holy water" transform a drop of rain into "holy water"? And, since priests have been making "holy water" for nearly 2,000 years, this would mean that there must be molecules of "holy water" in virtually everything we use. We wash our cars with "holy water". We use "holy water" in our toilets. There is "holy water" in beer, and when we urinate, we're pissing out "holy water".
What do Christians think of this? Does "holy water" cease to be "holy" when it evaporates? What if I pour "holy water" down the drain? Is it still "holy" when it mixes with water in the sewer? When does it stop being "holy"? And why would it stop being "holy"?
Any thoughts?

Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
