Yeah, Imma call (provisional) bullshit on that one. Got a source?

No. Holy water cannot be visibly contaminated (which is why the oceans can’t be turned into holy water).
If all of the water in a room was made holy by the simple fact of the pope being in that room without the requisite mumbo jumbo being recited, then ALL of the water in the Vatican would be holy from the minute the pope set foot in it.
Even if that were the case, the prohibition against water bottles makes no sense. There’s no rule that says civilians can’t have holy water.

There simply *must* be a prohibition against every civilian having access to holy water. Can you imagine? If everybody could use holy water willy nilly, then we'd have no famine, disease or wars! Monsanto, the CDC and the Pentagon are complicit...
It's a CONSPIRACY!
Disappointing theists since 1968!

If he's in the room with water then it becomes holy water. If he's in the bathroom the water in the toilet becomes holy water. If he shits or pisses into the toilet he's doing it into holy water.

But his being in the room with the water doesn’t make it holy water.

Because the sanctification of water requires a priest to recite magic words. The mere presence of the pope is insufficiently sanctimonious.

You got yer Catechism right, boyo! Though I know that you think it's complete shit.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Of course. It's nonsense from one end to the other. But if we're going to criticize religion, the least we can do is criticize their actual nonsense.
