Christians are remarkably inconsistent about what is natural and good or unnatural and bad.

True, although I'm guessing "you can't baptize someone in Gatorade' would be something virtually all Christians would think.

If my hasty checking is valid, there's nothing in the Bible about holy water. There's holding a baptism, but nothing about holy men blessing water to imbue it with the Holy Spirit.

As such, I assume that any liquid blessed by a priest might be considered holy.

Something something Godly Gatorade, Blessed Baja Blast etc.
