Found this in my deceased father-in-law's belongings.

We are clearing out the house for an estate sale and i found this bottle of holy water. The label reads: "Holy Water 1977".

Just thought it was weird, so decided to share.

I'm thinking of saving it.

Unless there's a "Blessed if used by:" date on it, it should still be Holy.

Snapple Holy Water didn't do as well as their iced teas.

I like Snapple as much as the next guy, but I don’t know if I’d go so far as to call it ‘Holy Water’

Lol what if "One man, one jar" was just this exact scenario...

At any rate, DO NOT PUT GLASS OBJECTS IN YOUR ASSHOLE.

Vampire/witch hunter > Catholic.

My wife has a water bottle that was blessed since we were married. Sits on the fridge. Keeps the hot goth babes away. I know because I haven't seen one since then.

Is she Italian?

Italians recently requested over 500,000 exorcisms from The Vatican in one year. That's obviously a lot of demonic possessions in southern Europe. edit: Latin America.

Either keep it; bless objects or humans with it; or pour it onto the ground. Or take it to the closest Catholic Church and they can deal with it, if you don't want to keep it. At any rate, please treat it with respect.

I don't remember Snapple until the mid-80's. Just wasn't in my life yet.

I had a really hard time getting it open. There's no message under the cap for the Snapple bottle. I found a little plastic bottle with a spray. I'm going to transfer what's left of the holy water into the plastic spray bottle.And get rid of the original snapple bottle. I'm gonna keep a little bit of it cause.Hey, you never know.

Enough bacteria for this to qualify as a 50 year experiment that proves evolution.
